"IBM on Monday rolled out a broad range of initiatives
around its DB2 Universal Database, introducing a
per-processor pricing model and announcing an upgrade
with new built-in business intelligence functions and
support for Linux."
"Kicking off a user group conference in Orlando, Fla., IBM
also made official that it would ship later this year a pair
of new trimmed-down DB2 databases designed for
mobile workers."
"IBM will elbow into the market for mobile data
management with DB2 Satellite Edition, an 8MB
database for laptop use, and DB2 Everywhere, a 50KB
version for hand-held devices running the Palm and
Windows CE operating systems. The two are now in
beta."
