Description
Windows NT and Windows 2000 are the fastest growing platform for running DB2 and developing DB2 applications. Now there's a complete guide to DB2 application development on Windows platforms, covering every key issue developers care about most. Focused on DB2 application development with Visual Studio, Java, and Perl, this book presents insider's techniques for developing and optimizing today's most important DB2 applications, including data warehouses, decision support, and online transaction processing. Learn how to leverage Microsoft database access technologies such as RDO, ADO, OLE DB and ODBC, and Java solutions such as Java Stored Procedures, JDBC, and SQLJ. Optimize and secure your databases; integrate legacy data with Web applications; enhance portability; and more. For DB2 developers, this is critical information -- and most of it simply can't be found anywhere else!
