I'd like to open an invitation to licensed customers interested in participating in a sponsor program for some new features we have been working on. The program is tied to a future release and offers the ability to access a hosted environment or download locally and work in your local environment using your own data and applications.
Some of the target features allows for distributed access to Cloud Pak for Data and the Db2 distributed environment. So having a more complete environment available is a benefit. Of the features we are targeting, we'd ask you to focus on at least two primary features and provide your feedback to us. We will use the standard IBM Support problem reporting process to submit questions and report issues.
The hosted environment will include the following:
- z/OS
- Db2 for z/OS
- DVM Server, DVM Studio, JDBC Gateway
- Db2 distributed and associated Data Management Console (DMC), formerly known as Data Studio Manager
- CPD cluster v3.5 registered with Data Virtualization and Watson Knowledge Catalog micro services
The program will begin this week and run continuously, however, really want to focus on initial feedback starting this week through March.
Again, this program is for licensed customers only. Please let me know if you have interest and I will provide you details.
Sincerely,
