What do you like best about IBM Db2?
It is a robust, reliable database designed to support large workloads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about IBM Db2?
Extremely difficult to learn. All companies I've met that use DB2 use it in Mainframe environments, which is practically impossible to replicate on a small scale to study. And all training I've seen for DB2+Mainframe, are absurdly expensive, because the professional who can teach is expensive and the environment to study too. That's why I see few professionals working with this technology. To be honest, I don't remember any DBA my age who paid to learn DB2; the few I met, already worked in a company and received the training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
