Steve
I read your previous post and knew you had worked on JD Edwards before. My company is running JD Edwards using AS400 and DB2. How difficult the task migrate to SQL Server from DB2 ?
Thanks

Sorry, I have no idea. I was in the corporate side of things and so didn't work with movement of the product. Plus we never looked at migrating anything off DB2.
I know there was a data layer to abstract things, but no idea how hard it would be.

If you plan to stick with JD Edwards you should be thinking an Oracle database. Oracle is suggesting they will support JDE World to 2013. However, the Fusion upgrade will be released in 2008 and you should expect serious effort by Oracle to migrate you to an Oracle database/Fusion java front app at this point. Fusion is the combo of Peoplesoft, ebusiness suite, and JDE code (sort of a best of combo).
We run JDE on an AS400 as well so we are watching this closely. It is supposed to be a direct upgrade. But probably a platform change to something like a *nix cluster.
But hey - you can still use SQL Server for reporting and warehousing from the ERP. JDE is pretty weak in that area.
