The attention to big customers (regarding new features and implementations) and big software vendors (SAP, Peoplesoft, ecc.) is quite clear in DB2 area IMHO.
It's strange, IBM created a low cost mainframe (z9 BC) but no low cost software for medium to small customers, only WLC or other contract benefits.
IMHO there is low cost software. Any price which is "capacity-dependent" costs less for small clients. I agree that price per MIPS is higher, but it's nothing new, that poor pays more.
