You've already got XML data everywhere in your applications; ATOM, Ajax, ADF, REST, RSS, SOAP, Web services, and more.
How do you find the right file, search all that data, get the results you need, and do it quickly?

DB2 Express-C 9 handles your XML for you. No files, no parsing, and no schema synching.
You spend less time writing code to search and parse data, and less time on troubleshooting, reworking, and reintegrating new data sources as you add new stuff. Because navigating the XML in your subdocuments is key to your app's performance, the true hierarchical storage format in DB2 9 gives you faster response time.
DB2® Express-C 9 is a free version of DB2 Universal Database™ Express Edition for the community. DB2 Express-C 9 offers the same core data server features as DB2 Express 9 and provides a solid base to build and deploy applications developed using C/C++, Java™ platform, .NET®, PHP, Ruby on Rails, and other programming languages.
DB2 Express-C is:
Production-ready: Free to download, install, develop, deploy, and distribute.
Part of the developer community: Comprehensive forum support available.
DB2 Express-C gives you new classes that help Java clients retrieve XML with the DB2Xml class. And DB2 Express-C 9 can receive, return, and manipulate XML within Java stored procedures. Architecting your Java application is simplified, because DB2 9 has a common driver, compliant with JDBC 3.0, for type 2 and type 4 applications.
