IBM likes Hashicorp, finally puts a $6.4B ring on it

Re: Good news

Wait you don't thrust IBM but Oracle? So IBM has open sourced tons of stuff and contributes to various open source projects on Apache Foundation and the Eclipse Foundation, and Oracle is the company that whatever they buy they kill it, from mysql to java and other bits. I rooted for IBM to buy sun microsystem so Java is under a prober company.. but we got what we got .. tell that yo everyone pissed off about the namespace rename on javax vs jakarta. So yeah dude, you got your view wrong.

Db2 is a story worth telling, even if IBM won't

Forgotten?

Lindsay Clark in a second or 3rd attempt is written DB2 os a forgotten DB or brand. Maybe to ppl who think that open source is the only way forward. In Enterprises I know a ton of places where DB is running out performing SQL Server or Oracle. We have DB2 running as a Store Repository for one of the IBM products.. since 10years rock solid, never an issue, upgraded 3x to newer versions.
