But for DB2 UDB for iSeries / System i statistics are gathered, indexes are
out-balanced, space for the tables is reseverd and maintained, but all is
done automatically. 

BTW DB2 UDB for iSeries / System i under Release V5R4 is the only database
that covers the latest SQL-Standard SQL-2003 to 100%. Oracle for example
even with its latest version only covers around 70% and all other databases
less.
In this way other database must have a lot of non-standard features, either.

How else interested parties could be convinced to prefer this database or
any other. 

In this way why should our database not be a "standard" database? 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

That may make it non-standard, but it doesn't mean it's non-good. If the
standard is everyone has to work 100 hours a week, but a few people only
work 50, the people working less are non-standard. They're also happier. :)


Unlike Oracle and SQL server, I do not need to gather statistics, 
rebuild existing indexes, manage table spaces, or have headaches when 
updating server hardware. Does this make DB2 on our beloved box a 
non-standard database?
