Our largest iSeries is used for data warehousing. We use the suite of products from Showcase (division of SPSS). The Showcase query client is used against the data warehouse as well as production machines for ad hoc queries. Very simple, pretty intuitive I think. The report generator is a more sophisticated tool for report purposes. Very powerful, not as easy to use in my opinion. The only problem that we have with the suite is that we are now more interested in running things from your portal but we also prefer web based clients and results. The Showcase tools don't quite do this yet..... We use these tools and the data warehouse to eliminate a lot of work and make a lot of data available to people.
