Thank you to all of the customers, colleagues, and IBMers who joined The Fillmore Group on April 11, 2013 at Cinghiale in Baltimore, USA to discuss IBM’s Data Strategy – which we call “DB2 101”. As it happens, many DB2 customers don’t realize the strength and depth of the IBM Information Management portfolio. And many non-DB2 customers don’t know about the governance and management tooling available in InfoSphere and Optim (e.g. Guardium) which IBM provides for Oracle, SQL Server, Teradata, and other-vendor database servers.
Prominently featured were the highlights of IBM’s April 3rd announcement held at Almaden Lab which my colleague, Kim May, and I attended.
- PureData System for Hadoop
- DB2 for LUW V10.5 with BLU Acceleration
Also of note is the bundling of functionality in DB2 Advanced Enterprise Server Edition (AESE).
- pureScale – shared-disk clustering
- Data Partitioning Feature (DPF) – shared-nothing hash partitioning
- DB2 for LUW v10.5 columnar compression database
The presentation is available at DB2 101 – IBM Information Management Software Portfolio Overview 2013-04 The audio-video recorded delivery can be viewed here.

A couple months ago I was the lucky winner of an IBM contest for Information Management Business Partners. The prize was space in the IBM Data Management magazine (now online at www.ibmdatamag.com) and assistance writing an article on a topic of interest. The article is being published today and can be viewed here.
As The Fillmore Group was recently asked to begin delivering IBM Authorized Education on IBM’s big data solutions, BigInsights and InfoSphere Streams, we decided to leverage the article to promote our upcoming classes.
There is always terrific content in the magazine. I hope you enjoy the article and consider taking a formal class to learn more about IBM’s big data solutions.
