    I have primarily used it as the basis for a SIS - but I have migrated more than a few systems from there database systems to DB2 (Filemaker, MySQL, etc.). DB2 does have a better structural approach, as opposed to Filemaker, which allows for more data consistency, but this can also lead to an inflexibility that can sometimes be counterintuitive when attempting to compensate for the flexibility of the work environment as Schools tend to have an all in one approach.

    Cons
    Cloudera
    • Not fully Open Source, couple of components of the distributions are privately owned, meaning with public contributions are not welcome
    • Improvements to Cloudera manager can only be recommended. its very hard to get it done once recommended as the full control is with them.
    • Should make components more aligned to Open Source rather than making it closed sourced.
    • Custom Features of open source software tools supported only by Cloudera are tricky. Cant commit changes to tools like Hue.
    • Improvements to Cluster Management tool is required, which are already available to its competitors.

    • Learning curve for DB resources - Improvements to UI or native command line built-ins can help with increasing efficiencies for DB resources
    • Better resource utilization monitoring and recommendations
    • Continue to adopt support for modern frameworks and languages making it easier for organizations to see making Db2 the easy first choice

    Likely to renew the use in case the requirements for Cloudera remain valid. The rapid change in customer requirements and solutions that must be validated, integrated or tested changes. As the maturity of the solution increases, the requirements to renew use decrease. From a solution feature perspective by itself would probably grade 10.

    The DB2 database is a solid option for our school. We have been on this journey now for 3-4 years so we are still adapting to what it can do. We will renew our use of DB2 because we don’t see. Major need to change. Also, changing a main database in a school environment is a major project, so we’ll avoid that if possible.

    I have never had DB2 go down unexpectedly. It just works solidly every day. When I look at the logs, sometimes DB2 has figured out there was a need to build an index. Instead of waiting for me to do it, the database automatically created the index for me. At my current company, we have had zero issues for the past 8 years. We have upgrade the server 3 times and upgraded the OS each time and the only thing we saw was that DB2 got better and faster. It is simply amazing.

    The performances are exceptional if you take care to maintain the database. It is a very powerful tool and at the same time very easy to use. In our installation, we expect a DB machine on the mainframe with access to the database through ODBC connectors directly from branch servers, with fabulous end users experience.

    DB2 was more scalable and easily configurable than other products we evaluated and short listed in terms of functionality and pricing. IBM also had a good demo on premise and provided us a sandbox experience to test out and play with the product and DB2 at that time came out better than other similar products.

    Scalability
    Cloudera
    No answers on this topic
    IBM
    By
    using DB2 only to support my IzPCA activities, my knowledge here
    is somewhat limited.

    Anyway,
    from what I was able to understand, DB2 is extremely scallable.

    Maybe the information below could serve as an example of scalability.
    Customer have an huge mainframe environment, 13x z15 CECs, around
    80 LPARs, and maybe more than 50 Sysplexes (I am not totally sure about this
    last figure...)

    Today
    we have 7 IzPCA
    databases, each one in a distinct Syplex.

    Plans
    are underway to have, at the end, an small LPAR, with only one DB2 sub-system,
    and with only one database, then transmit the data from a lot of other LPARs,
    and then process all the data in this only one database.



    The
    IzPCA collect process (read the data received, manipulate it, and insert rows
    in the tables) today is a huge process, demanding many elapsed
    hours, and lots of CPU.

    Almost
    100% of the tables are PBR type, insert jobs run in parallel, but in 4 of the 7
    database, it is a really a huge and long process.



    Combining
    the INSERTs loads from the 7 databases in only one will be impossible.......,,,,



    But,
    IzPCA recently introduced a new feature, called "Continuous
    Collector"
    .
    By
    using that feature, small amounts of data will be transmited to the central
    LPAR at every 5 minutes (or even less), processed immediately,in
    a short period of time, and with small use of CPU,
    instead of one or two transmissions by day, of very large amounts of data and
    the corresponding collect jobs occurring only once or twice a day, with long
    elapsed times, and huge comsumption of CPU



    I
    suspect the total CPU seconds consumed will be more or less the same in
    both cases, but in the new method it will occur in small bursts
    many times a day!!

    Return on Investment
    Cloudera
    • Cloudera products are the most widely. It is more business friendly as data is more secure. The sensitive data that you operate on is local to you and your project rather than processing this data on Cloud.
    • Cloudera is definitely faster as wait time is reduced if on Cloud.
    • A lot range of products are covered. So it is definitely good for businesses and had good returns on investments.
