Dear DB2 Interested Parties,
If you haven’t seen it, check out “A Virtual Point of View - Despite limitations, virtual approaches to data integration hold great potential for certain applications” an article in Intelligent Enterprise online magazine.

Written by Philip Russom of Giga Information Group, the article surveys the emerging area of “enterprise information integration” (EII). IBM is focused on our customers’ requirements for EII and investing heavily in this solution area. The article references this solution, now in beta, in this statement:

“IBM is, at the moment, the vendor with the most complete product and strategy roadmap for EII. IBM DB2 Information Integrator include best-of-breed components for federated database management (DB2) and real-time integration (WebSphere MQ). It has mature capabilities for distributed query optimization and native connectivity to back-end databases that smaller vendors can’t easily reinvent. Unlike other vendors, IBM’s concept of EII encompasses both structured and unstructured data, as well as bidirectional, heterogeneous database replication. All these capabilities raise the bar on what an EII platform must do, giving IBM a lead that other vendors will find hard to close.”
