I am thinking of moving doyoudb2.com from Joomla to Drupal. When I started exploring the world of Open Source Content Management Systems, the name Joomla attracted me. Joomla has a very nice adminin user interface, but when it comes to flexibility Drupal scores high.

If you are new to Db2 for LUW and would like to try out db2-luw but don't have access to a Unix machine where you can install db2, here is one workaround. Install Linux (Ubuntu) on your laptop/desktop and then install db2-express C.

Having completed my current project, I am looking for a new consulting project these days.

Is it 15 TB, 20 TB or more. I have never heard of any non-partitioned db2 luw database greater than 20 TB.
