IBM asks DBAs to trust AI to act on their behalf

IBM has added support for Google Vertex AI and Intel Gaudi to boost the AI-based management of its stalwart Db2 database. With the update to its Db2 Genius Hub, launched earlier this year, Big Blue is now promising an automated database management system that acts on behalf of DBAs within certain guardrails. The new release promises to integrate Db2 data with Google Cloud’s fully managed AI platform, Vertex AI, to help customers build, deploy, and scale machine learning models.
