Shape the future of IBM!
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Post your ideas
Post ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted and upvote them if they matter to you,
Post an idea
Upvote ideas that matter most to you
Get feedback from the IBM team to refine your idea
Help IBM prioritize your ideas and requests
The IBM team may need your help to refine the ideas so they may ask for more information or feedback. The product management team will then decide if they can begin working on your idea. If they can start during the next development cycle, they will put the idea on the priority list. Each team at IBM works on a different schedule, where some ideas can be implemented right away, others may be placed on a different schedule.
Receive notification on the decision
Some ideas can be implemented at IBM, while others may not fit within the development plans for the product. In either case, the team will let you know as soon as possible. In some cases, we may be able to find alternatives for ideas which cannot be implemented in a reasonable time.

We are migrating from Netezza to IIAS. We were glad to see that on DB2 we could use ENFORCED primary/unique keys to avoid duplicates. Unfortunately we've hit performance issues with our ETL workflows and we were advised to drop the enforced constraints.
So we've started using UNFORCED primary/unique keys and we run a script to check these constraints ourselves after the ETL workflows. Our reporting tools also use this keys to link tables.
Now our script notifies us that we have duplicates in some tables. But when we want to consult these lines in our query tool, we don't get to see these duplicates...
Very annoying and inconvenient!

Japanese Netezza customers hit this issue, and are in critical situation... Some of them use PK with duplicated value for information column. At least four customers suffer from this incompatibility. Please let primary keys allow "NOT TRUSTED" to avoid returning incorrect results.
