RE: Found this link

Thanks for the reply.  The comparison was Oracle 9i against the IBM
mainframe.  I knew that DB2 ran on the other systems.

Which system does DB2 run the best on?

uhhhhh... no.

DB2 UDB runs on HPUX, Sun Solaris, AIX, Unix, Linux, NT, Windows (some
versions as far back as 3.1), OS/2.

Then there is DB2 UDB for OS/400.
Then there is DB2 UDB for MVS.

There are three different flavors of DB2, the primary being the product out
of Toronto, that runs on everything outside of the AS/400 and S/390 world.

I did not see the comparison that you mention, but if is was Oracle 9i
against the 400, then it wasn't fair.
