DB2 has been off my radar for a while, but I circled back around due to my continuing rage at Oracle and their stupidity in not releasing Oracle 11g for Solaris/X86. To hell with ‘em… IBM has done a wonderful thing and released DB2 9.5 for Solaris/X86… whats more, there is an Express C version. Express C is a thinned down free version of DB2. This means that you can legally run a modern, enterprise grade database at no cost on the worlds best enterprise grade OS. DB2 and OpenSolaris is an awesome tag team. You can download it now: DB2 9.5 (Viper2) Express C
“But I don’t know DB2!” you say? Good news! Like Sun IBM has an awesome campus evangelism effort, and there is a complete DB2 on Campus video series that will train you up. There is also an excellent free eBook: Getting Started with DB2 Express C. Pair that up with the industries best documentation effort (IBM Redbooks) and you can’t loose.
And Joyent fans… yes, DB2 will run beautifully in a Joyent Accelerator. Screw Oracle… lets here it for DB2!
I’m going to assume that this means that TSM 6.0 will be alive and kicking on Solaris x64, since I hear that it will run on top of a full-fledged DB2 install. Sounds good to me…
I have been using it for a few weeks, but the only problem is that there are no GUI tools with Solaris version, so if you don’t know DB2 then you may have to download the Windows version as well.
But, well done IBM and shame on Oracle…..
@Andrew: Thanks for confirming that. I spent 20 minutes installing and setting up my environment, and then 45 minutes figuring out where db2cc is and why it wasn’t installed. It just isn’t there. I thought about checking 9.0 to see if it was simply omitted from 9.5.
Well supposedly Oracle will release DB 11gR2 for Solaris X86/64
I suspect that Solaris on the AMD/Intel platform doesn’t make Oracle
comfortable, considering they have that so-called unbreakable Linux nonsense.
Interesting to see DB2 for Solaris/x86/64! Nice.
Sybase fully supports Solaris/X86/64 as well
Globally we had a TON of Sybase which used to run on RH Linux, but due to stability problems we moved most of our Linux based Sybase servers to X4600 clusters running Solaris 10 (of course!) The rest still runs on older SPARC systems.
All of our Oracle though runs on a Solaris/SPARC system. (like it should) We also don’t run 11g at all, everything here is 10g or 9i.
thanks
good read thanks

A guy was driving when a policeman pulled him over. He rolled down his window and said to the officer, “Is there a problem, Officer?” “No problem at all. I just observed your safe driving and am pleased to award you a $5,000 Safe Driver Award. Congratulations. What do you think you’re going to do with the money?” He thought for a minute and said, “Well, I guess I’ll go get that drivers’ license.” The lady sitting in the passenger seat said to the policeman, “Oh, don’t pay attention to him – he’s a smartass when he’s drunk and stoned.” The guy from the back seat said, “I TOLD you guys we wouldn’t get far in a stolen car!” At that moment, there was a knock from the trunk and a muffled voice said, “Are we over the border yet?”
