For application developers, IBM's DB2 Universal Database Version 7.1 delivers unprecedented power and flexibility. In this book, a team of IBM experts present every skill and technique you need to build enterprise, Web, and eBusiness applications with DB2 UDB V7.1 — and gain IBM's coveted Certified Solutions Expert certification for DB2 application development!

Start by understanding the DB2 client-server environment, database objects, the role of SQL, and the basic structure of a DB2 application. Compare the multiple programming interfaces available for DB2 application development, identifying the ones most appropriate to each project. Review IBM DB2 7.1 features and strategies for maximizing application performance and scalability, and master advanced techniques such as triggers and stored procedures.

Master embedded SQL programming within DB2; development with CLI/ODBC, and OLE DB development — including Microsoft's ActiveX Data Objects (ADO). Next, take advantage of the powerful DB2 Administration and Context Management API, which allows you to handle a wide variety of database administration tasks from within your application code. Coverage also includes:

• JDBC and SQLj: how and when to use each
• Using IBM's Net.Data scripting language to build powerful Web applications that access data from DB2 and other sources
• Accessing DB2 databases using Perl DBI
• Extending DB2 functionality using DB2 Extenders: Text Extender, Net Search Extender, Audio, Image and Video Extenders, and XML Extender.

Whatever your DB2 application, whatever your environment — UNIX, Windows, or OS/2 — this is the most thorough, authoritative development guide you can find.
