New features in the latest version of the IBM® DB2® database make it possible to access and manipulate XML data just as you would data in a standard relational database. In this tutorial, you'll learn to set up a DB2 9 database and WebSphere® Application Server Community Edition on a Windows™ or Linux® environment, then write and deploy a Java™ application that takes advantage of DB2 9's XML capabilities.

Prerequisites

This tutorial is written for application developers who have at least introductory experience with DB2 9, some experience with SQL and the Java platform, and some knowledge of XML.

System requirements

To run the examples in this tutorial, you need:

• DB2 9 Data Server
• WebSphere Application Server Community Edition
• Apache Ant
• Microsoft™ Windows 2000 or higher and an account with administrator privileges, or Linux and an account with root access. Make sure Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2 or higher is installed on your system.

Refer to the DB2 9 system requirements page and the Community Edition system requirements page to make sure that your hardware meets their respective requirements.

Apache Ant is an open source, Java-based build tool. You can find information on installing Apache Ant on the project's home page.
