Overview

This course provides you with information about the functions of IBM's DB2, a relational database manager which may be installed under a variety of operating systems on many hardware platforms.

DB2 runs under the z/OS, VM, Linux, UNIX, and Windows operating systems, to name a few.

The course includes discussion of how the DB2 products provide services. The focus is on the services DB2 provides and how we work with DB2, not on its internal workings.
