    IBM Db2 is a widely used enterprise database and is part of a larger Db2 family with big data, analytics, and data-streaming use cases. IBM has released and supports a number of DB2 container images on the Docker Store, making it easier than ever to deploy Db2 on your container platform. The aim of this blog post is to demonstrate a Db2 deployment architecture on Kubernetes using Portworx persistent volumes. Following this post, you’ll understand how to run Db2 in production on Kubernetes.

    Flash -     Load Operation May Trap or Cause Data or Index Page Corruption In V11.1.4.4, when Reading Pages From 9.7 Or Prior Release.
    For databases that were created in Version 9.7 or earlier releases, which have been upgraded through newer releases and eventually to Version 11.1.4.4, a LOAD operation performed in Version 11.1.4.4 may trap/crash or cause silent data or index page corruptions, if any existing data or index pages had not previously been updated by non-LOAD operations while running on the newer releases, and then accessed and updated by Load in Version 11.1.4.4.
