Domino 7 too complex for IBM to support on Linux?
While perusing the supported Linux distributions for Domino 7.0.1 I found the number to be in stark contrast to the number of distributions supported for DB2 UDB. According to the technote Domino 7.0.1 is only supported on 3 distributions while DB2 UDB is supported on 15 distributions! (To be fair DB2 UDB is only "recommended and validated" on 5 of the 15 distributions but still...)
Why the difference?
From the perspective of smaller installations the support of DB2 UDB on Ubuntu 5.04 is very nice since it together with DB2 UDB Express provides a almost no-cost entry into the world of DB2.
Domino 7 Redpapers available
2 new Domino 7 Redpapers that might be of interest to those not yet having made the move is now available from the IBM Redbooks website:
The first one is showing concrete examples of how the ITSO application was enhanced using the Domino/DB2 integration and webservices. The latter has a section for those still on Domino 5 who are looking into going directly to Domino 7.
