Hi All,
I have earlier worked on Datastage 7.5 and my new client is installing 8.0. I came to know that it uses a database like DB2,Oracle and SQL server to store its metadata unlike 7.5 where it uses Universe.

What are the other differences. I dont want to get lots of surprise.
Is the quality stage integrated now?

Regards
Om

The DataStage Designer is not that different. QualityStage is fully integration so it has a complete GUI overhaul. Have a look at www.squidoo.com/datastage8 for links to DataStage 8 information or search this forum for DataStage 8 threads.

IBM now offers a class coded DX800 (What's New in Version 8.0). I'm not sure if it's release to the public yet, so watch this space.
