Life's a holiday with IDS!

Sure, we all know how fantastic IDS 11 is, right? It's reliable, scalable, and widely known for its best-in-class high performing OLTP capabilities. But have you ever stopped to think about just where we'd be without it? This holiday season, I invite you to consider what a wonderful life it is with IDS:

Everyone knows there's no place like home for the holidays. But first you have to be able to get there. If you're planning on flying and you've made reservations on American Airlines, you've used IDS. Prefer trains to planes? If you've ridden Konkan Railways, then IDS has helped to get you to your destination.

If you're lucky enough to visit the Big Apple this winter, you can't leave without seeing a Broadway show. Don't worry, the strike is over and the ticket booths are open once again, with the reservation system running smoothly on IDS. As the curtain falls on your favorite show, you can pause to reflect on how IDS helped to bring you the best seats in the house.

Maybe you're not traveling this winter and are having relatives come to you instead. Tempted to put them up in a hotel rather than cram them onto sofa beds and air mattresses? Call up the Hilton or Wyndham hotel chains and thank IDS for powering the reservation system that will bring you a little peace of mind while your guests are in town.

When you can't be with all of your loved ones this season, a phone call can be the best gift of all. Next time you whip out your cell phone, chances are, IDS is helping you connect. After all, 95% of all telecommunications are powered by IDS.

You can't think of the holidays without thinking of shopping. Rather than worry about the bill that will arrive in January, ponder the fact that every time you swipe your VISA card, IDS is behind the charge.

And let's not forget the food. This time of year brings feasts galore. Whether you're cooking, catering or, dare I suggest this from my own experience: microwaving, you're still going to need supplies. When you hit Kroger's and check your grocery list twice, take note of how easy the check-out process is, all because it runs on IDS.

It's clear to see that the holidays just wouldn't be the same without IDS. It's always there. It's everywhere

Алексан vasilisIDS larger ref's ... Это официально опубликованные данные? Можно ссылку?
Нельзя. Сильно секьюрно :)
А если серьезно и обратить внимание на дату постинга, (двухгодичной давности) то я не помню, могу только гарантировать, что это не я придумал и, вероятней всего, взял из какой то презентации или материалов, рассылаемых ИБМ своим партнерам.
А что, какие то данные 2-х летней давности вызывают большие сомнения ?
