IBM Redbooks (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 1, 2000

This IBM Redbook shows how to use XML technology efficiently in business applications, and explains how to integrate it with DB2 Universal Database, DB2 XML Extender and Text Extender, and WebSphere Application Server. This book will help developers to set up the environment and to create and process XML documents that can be stored and recovered using SQL.

In Part 1, we introduce the theory of XML, including some advantages of its use. We show its positioning in real-life situations and explain how to process XML using Java. Following this, we cover DB2 XML Extender, from its installation to enabling/disabling the database for XML. Then we cover DB2 Text Extender, also from its installation to the actual use of data. Finally, we offer some considerations on code pages and National Language Support.

In Part 2, we describe our XMLApp application, including two different implementations using XML Columns and XML Collections. We explain how to install both implementations in WebSphere Application Server, and how to install one of them in VisualAge for Java.

Anyone wanting to use XML technology to build better business solutions will benefit from reading this book.
