Db2 on cloud

Overall Satisfaction with Db2

My organization uses IBM Db2 for real time dashboards, reporting and analytics. We use this database throughout our organization via cloud to feed real time metrics and reporting to staff in different regions. Our Analytics teams lever it for continuous data feeds and as well as presenting a large set of data to stakeholders. It makes it easy to access data, create a story, and present the results to audience in a short time period.

Pros

  • Real time analytics and reporting
  • Data Sharing
  • Supporting new projects where large amounts of data is required

Cons

  • Hard to learn to use
  • Gen AI assistance can take some time to learn and use
  • Hybrid cloud solution can be improved
  • Increased productivity
  • Reduced turn around times for real tiem metrics
  • significantly improved the ability to share data with other
  • Simplified the process to onboard new team members on a project
It has been quite easy to scale Db2 in my organization. When we are working on a new project that involved new team memebers. We are easy able to query the data required and share it with the required parties on a whim. This has made it super simple for us to scale.
In terms of availability, efficiency, productivity, Db2 has proved to be quite reliable in my organization. There have only been minor errors or downtime we have experienced. Generally the database and its feature are always avaiable to all our team member when they need it and it works quite fast.
IBM Db2 in my organization has had overall a much better consistency rating and effectiveness. Turnaround times are shorter and the need for human intervention is significantly less. We find Db2 to be more reliable overall and a better experience to use. In terms on real time insight and data base queries we find the IBM product really exceeds others.

Db2 is excellent for real time analytics and insights. When you have a large database and want to paint a picture for team memeber that are not very technical. Db2 does a great job with getting the data you need , and creating real time reports. It also makes is super easy to share the data with people that live in different regions and have very little knowledge on the topic at hand. It make my organization much more productive by reducing time it take to pull queries from databases.
