Appropriate for all courses in IBM DB2 Version 8 database development, and all courses preparing students to pass IBM's new DB2 Application Developer certification exam.
In this book, a team of IBM's leading DB2 development consultants present the only complete, start-to-finish guide to DB2 Universal Database V8/8.1 development, and the only authoritative preparation guide for IBM's latest DB2 Application Developer certification exam. Fully revised for DB2 Universal Database V8/V8.1, this definitive reference and self-study guide covers every aspect of DB2 development. Coverage includes: the DB2 client/server environment; choosing the right programming interface for each application; programming with Embedded SQL, ADO, CLI/ODBC, JDBC, SQLJ, Perl DBI, and stored procedures; and much more. Coverage also includes: using DB2 Extenders to provide XML support and other capabilities; and working with DB2's Administrative APIs. The book's IBM author team also shares a wide range of expert tips for maximizing database performance, availability, and efficiency. The accompanying CD-ROM contains a complete trial version of DB2 UDB v8 Personal Edition, as well as bonus certification exam study questions.
