Thanks, again, for all the responses to this. The results were quite unexpected. I thought I would see a debate on IBM Web Query vs. NGS and other solutions. MS SQL Server never occurred to me, nor was I aware of the other options...
Cheers!

I have seen lots of press on IBM Web Query, as well as competing apps from independent software vendors. I would be very interested to hear what you have chosen for your shop and what the deciding factor was.
You should also have a look at WebFocus by InformationBuilders - IBM
WebQuery is essentially a "light" version of that product. WebFocus
can run on the i (non-natively - Java/Qshell), but it can also run on
a seperate server - Windows, Linux, AIX, whatever you want. No
requirement for a data warehouse. Pay attention at special DB2
Connector licensing requirements when not running WebFocus on the i.
