Re: Sigh. IBM still can't get their story straight...

Don't create a mess based on product names or codes: http://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/cgi-bin/ssialias?infotype=AN&subtype=CA&htmlfid=897/ENUS206-337&appname=USN In this case, Alphablox was included in a solution with Informix. The name may have DB2 in it for historical (brand name) reasons. Last time I checked Alphablox could access OLTP systems, although that was not it's main purpose. Is uses JDBC connectivity... so as you can imagine it can access lot's of data sources. Regards. 2009/3/25 Ian Michael Gumby <im_gumby@hotmail.com> > Yeah, > > I spoke to someone inside IBM...
