Offering complete preparation for the recently expanded IBM DB2 certification program that now includes a developer's exam, this book doubles as a reference for web and e- business applications, covering all the fundamentals of DB2 including products, tools, connectivity, creating and manipulating data objects, control, security, and concurrency. The application development section has been updated to reflect new features of DB2, the role of SQL, and the basic structure of a DB2 application. The book includes a sample certification exam, and a CD-ROM containing a trial version of DB2. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
