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 offering manager 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.

"Not having the DB Toolkit available on all client platforms significantly deflates our operational compatibility story. In particular Windows is a primary platform for remote client systems. While the client docker image has its benefits it is not practical in all use cases and overly cumbersome for remote administration on individual machines."

Also with docker container we do not have flexibility of passing parameters to dbload, which we use as part of our ETL process. Currently we can easily do it with nzload, and not having this ability greatly complicates ETL migration process.

Not having Sailfish tools for windows creates additional obstacles that both BI team and our IT need to overcome. Windows servers and Windows desktops have different issues installing docker environment, and I foreseen more since we will need more developers to use this utility. With utility working naively on Windows, we can concentrate on actual task of migration and new development instead of dealing with docker on Windows.

Request from "Srinivas Koppisetti"

AMC networks is asking for these native tools being available on Windows. it is very difficult for embracing docker driven CLT into their existing ETL jobs written in SSIS. They are migrating their workloads slowly to Sailfish and are running into parameter passing into Docker from SSIS. This would have been a smooth process with native dbload availability on windows.
