Provider, .Net Provider, Net.Data®, or Distributed Relational
Database Architecture™ (DRDA).
 Altering and managing database objects

system methods for altering and managing database objects.
 Creating database objects
The first step in developing your database is to create the objects
that hold your data. You can create tables, views, and indexes with
SQL. You can also create physical and logical files using the
traditional system interface.
 Ensuring data integrity
Db2 for i provides several integrity measures, such as constraints,
trigger programs, and commitment control.
 Importing and exporting data between systems
Importing data is the process of retrieving data from external
sources, while exporting data is the process of extracting data
from Db2 for i and copying data to another system.
 Working with multiple databases
The system provides a system database (identified as SYSBAS)
and the ability to work with one or more user databases.
 Working with system-period temporal tables
Defining a system-period temporal table allows you to maintain
historical versions of the table's rows. A system-period temporal
table stores current versions of your data and uses its associated
history table to store prior versions of rows that were updated or
deleted.
 Working with triggers and constraints
You can use triggers or constraints to manage data in your
database tables.
 Writing DB2 programs
Db2 for i provides various methods for writing applications that
access or update data.
