Hi Patrik,
Next rhetoricsl question.
> Why keep data on IBM i at all?
Why store data in relational databases?
Imho, the i should be kept in its own micro cosmos, equipped with own
modern dev tools (yes, a competitive GUI and printing workbench as well)
based on its strengths. All others components only as add-on for missing
functions.
Make the i unique, as its beginning, with a great cost of ownership and
people will love it again. At the moment i miss a clear direction and
commitment.
Just my 2cts.
KF

And there is yet another nail on the IBM i coffin. :-)
One step further:
Why keep data on IBM i at all?
Rhetorical question.
:wq! PoC
