NSFDB2 support available until 2017 (at least!)

To clarify - NSFDB2 continues to be supported, for a minimum of 5+3 years from Domino 8.5's availability, and could possibly extend beyond that. In other words, the NSFDB2 feature will be supported at least through 2017.

Through the discussions we've had with customers, we heard about performance issues using NSFDB2. DB2, as its own application wasn't the issue - but rather the interaction of using a relational back end with Domino data. While some applications appear to be suitable (querying, for example) implementations of NSFDB2, there are performance considerations for other applications. Many of the customers we've heard from have expressed interest in query view capabilities, which is something we're investigating.

Domino has invested in making the NSF component robust and scalable and is suitable for enterprise quality messaging and applications. We are working on a FAQ concerning NSFDB2 and expect it out soon.
