Handle pureXML data in Java applications with pureQuery
pureQuery and DB2 pureXML are revolutionary database technologies in
their fields. pureQuery is a high-performance Java data access platform
focused on simplifying the tasks of developing and managing applications that
access data from a database. pureXML is the native XML data management
technology introduced in DB2 9. It consists of a hierarchical storage
technology, XML querying languages (XQuery and SQL/XML), XML indexing
technology and other XML-related features. This article brings them together
by showing how you can develop pureQuery applications that handle pureXML data
so you can get the best performance and manageability from your DB2
application.

Integrating the Spring Framework with Data Studio
pureQuery is IBM's new platform within Data Studio for developing Java
database access applications. Its simple API and integrated tooling make data access
developers more productive and encourages coding best practices for improved
performance. Spring is an open source Java/J2EE application framework that offers
higher level data access features like transaction management, resource management,
and Data Access Object hierarchies which, when integrated with pureQuery, lead to a
simpler application development and maintenance experience. This tutorial guides you in creating a pureQuery application that uses the Spring Framework's Data Access features.

Understanding pureQuery, Part 1: pureQuery: IBM's new paradigm for writing Java database applications
The project called pureQuery gives database application developers an easy, GUI-based means to significantly increase productivity in both the design and implementation phases. This is accomplished through user-initiated automatic transformation of relational data into Java objects for access and manipulation of data. In turn, these objects can be seamlessly utilized in a natural OO programming paradigm to write the business logic and the underlying code. pureQuery's functionality in effect eliminates traditional JDBC programming by integrating the query language with Java itself.
