Hi,
Please share is you have any information on Data Stage latest version/release.

I heard that DataStage has come up with latest release name that is DataStage8.1. Does this is a single product or again as part of the Information Server.

I have confusion if I can download this product (Data Stage 8.1) separately irrespective to download of complete Information Server suite.


Please share your comments.

Thanks,
Arjun

I guess DataStage 8.1 will come out in the end of 3rd Quarter and will contain fixes and bugs.

That's what pretty much any software company on the planet does. Still, made me chuckle.

It will be Infomation Server 8.1, not just DataStage.
Or, InfoSphere 8.1

At the TDWI conference just recently IBM previewed some of the version 8.1 features and announced a release date of September. They usually start with the Windows platform first with other platforms following weeks later.

For a preview see my posts IBM Information Server and DataStage Roadmap for 2008 and 2009 and September Information Server 8.1 Adds Global Name Recognition.
