After announcing 200 partners "who plan to sell LotusLive," the news of IBM's LotusLive's apparent traction and the release of DB2 Express for Lotus Foundations has garnered some interest from a few news outlets. For example, ReadWriteEnterprise:

A case in point is today's announcement by IBM about the gains with LotusLive and new additions to Lotus Foundations.
Of course, to win, it takes high quality products, too. But IBM seems to have a contender with LotusLive. In January, IBM announced a big win with Panasonic. And today comes news that in the last two months, IBM has signed up 200 reseller partners to sell the LotusLive service.
LotusLive is available as cloud-based or on-premise, which correlates to IBM's hybrid approach. IBM is investing heavily in the cloud but Lotus Foundations plays an important strategic role as an on-premise offering. And as of today, Lotus Foundations will be packaged with its DB-2 Express database. There are no limits on the database size nor limits on the number of databases per server.
