Using XQuery to Query pureXML data with DB2
Course duration: 2.0 days
Course number: CG10
Abstract: This course introduces you to non-traditional ways of using DB2 to work with native Extensible Markup Language (XML) data. Also, discuss how database administrators manage the DB2 - native XML environment. Learn to query XML data that is stored in DB2 tables and how to create XML documents from traditional DB2 data. Search XML documents stored in DB2 tables and access XML documents as though the documents were relational tables.
This is a basic course for end users and anyone interested in learning how to retrieve native XML data and perform text searching of native XML.

Querying and Administering pureXML data with DB2
Course duration: 4.0 days
Course number: CG13
Abstract: This course introduces you to non-traditional ways of using DB2 to work with native Extensible Markup Language (XML) data. Also, discuss how database administrators manage the DB2 - native XML environment. Learn to query XML data that is stored in DB2 tables and how to create XML documents from traditional DB2 data. Search XML documents stored in DB2 tables and access XML documents as though the documents were relational tables. This content is addressed in the first two days of class and can be taken by end users or other individuals who only need to access XML data stored in DB2 tables. In the last two days of class, you will store native XML data in DB2 and create XML indexes. Analyze plan information for queries and take steps for improving query execution. Learn how to manage the XML schemas and the techniques available for decomposing the XML documents.
This is an intermediate course for database administrators and anyone interested in learning how to handle native XML data in DB2.
