The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
I'm going to guess the market is limited. Not non-existant but limited.
We do and have been running a large DW on what is currently an i5.
Wouldn't change it for the world. I say large but I should say large
for us. I would assume that the small DW and large DW environments are
pretty strong into Wintel and Unix servers. We use the SPSS/Showcase
family of products.
FYI - the i5 is one of the leading benchmarks for the SAP BI performance
benchmark.
It would be nice to get more feedback from others on IBM i based ETL's,
etc. but I'm not sure if there is enough activity.

Subject: Re: Is there an midrange Data Warehouse forum or, if not...
David Gibbs,
I fully agree. If there are only a handful of people either doing or
interested in doing Data Warehouses, Data Marts and/or Operational Data
Stores (ODS) on the i5 then there is not enough to warrant a special
forum.
I know there are plenty of the above being built on the major DB2s and
ORACLE, etc. so I thought maybe the i5 arena was doing the same; maybe
I'm wrong. Regardless, if there are folks doing one or more of
DW/DM/ODS, and since I've done this on other platforms and am now
working on one on an i5 I'm curious to see what others are doing and
will help where I can.
Thanks,
Dave
