Summary: IBM DB2 Universal Database V6.1 Application Development Trai
Review: Course Overview
This course will provide application developers with the specific skills and knowledge needed to be successful in an IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) V6.1 application development environment for UNIX, Windows or OS/2 platforms. This course will teach students about SQL application development, application development objects, embedded SQL programming, and dynamic SQL programming.

Learn To

Use SQL functions in DB2 Applications.
Use different application objects in DB2, such as schema, user-defined types, user-defined functions, and stored procedures.
Use SQL within an application.
Use dynamic SQL within an application.

Audience
This course is intended for application developers. Students should have a fundamental understanding of relational database technology, including concepts of databases, tables, rows/columns, data types, etc., prior to taking this course. Limited exposure to SQL is also assumed. Application Development students must also have solid programming skills using C, C++, Java, or equivalent programming language. In addition, participants should have taken the first part in this series, IBM DB2 UDB V6.1 Fundamentals (course13431) prior to taking this course. When coupled with appropriate on-the-job experience, this course will help prepare students for the IBM Certified Solutions Expert Certification Application Development exam 511.
