Ah...=20
The express edition makes sense.=20
But not work group? :-(
Methinks its a conspiracy by both IBM and Oracle to wrangle more of our IT
=
dollars.=20
Actually I wonder what will happen when Microsoft beefs up their
SQLServer.=
Will IBM then change their tune?
BUT I STILL WANT TO SEE THOSE TPC-E NUMBERS and find out more on the cell
b=
ased stuff.
(Can you imagine a "cluster" of PS3's running Linux ;-)

Sorry if I'm being impatient, but I was *wondering* if/when=20
we'll see any TPC-E benchmarking, that we've been hearing rumors=20
about?
The latest from IBM was a TPC-C using DB2 v 9.5 which was done=20
by the hardware folks to thumb their noses at HP. Of course HP responds
w=
ith=20
their latest benchmark, however while the total numbers were lower, the
c=
ost=20
per transaction was much lower.
And they say that TPC-C is=20
dead.
So what is it going to be?
And one has to ask... Will it=20
be on a blade server, and if so, on the cell chip based blades?=20
;-)
This would kind of kill two birds with one stone. We'll get to see=20
the cell in action along with IDS numbers that should shock the rest of
t=
he=20
world.
But hey! What do I know? My client is just *now* switching to=20
10g, but are too cheap to pay for the ability to partition tables.
Isn't=20
that a built in feature of IDS? (meaning all commercial=20
versions?)
