Create an alerts system using XMPP, SMS, pureXML, and PHP
Thanks to the native XML support that pureXML offers IBM DB2 database developers, you can load XML data directly into your database, freeing up development time to add functionality to your application. Follow along in this tutorial to import an XML file with Euro foreign exchange rates into an IBM DB2 database and use special XQuery and SQL/XML functions to split this XML into separate database rows. You will also create a PHP script that pulls down new rates from the European Central Bank (ECB) Web site each day. Then you will extend the script to send update alerts to a Google Talk user using the XMPP protocol, and to a cell phone by SMS text message using the Clickatell SMS gateway service. Finally, you will create a PHP script that generates a PNG (Portable Network Graphics) graph of this data.

Application logging using solidDB, WebSphere Message Broker, and DB2
pureXML
Because of its flexibility and its presence in many application
environments, XML is becoming the preferred log format. In this article,
you'll learn how to easily set up an application logging environment by
bringing the XML features of WebSphere and DB2 together. We first introduce a

Create and deploy Data Web Services on WebSphere DataPower XI50 Integration Appliance
IBM Data Studio Developer comes with a capability (called
Data Web Services) which allows you to define Web services based on database
operations. This procedure is driven by metadata and supported by tooling so that no code
generation is required and no deployment artifacts need to be written by hand. Data Studio generates runtime artifacts for those services which can be deployed into an application server environment. Runtime artifacts for different environments can be generated since the service definition and public
interface (WSDL) are abstract and completely independent from the service implementation.
With IBM Data Studio Developer 1.2 (or later), the WebSphere DataPower XI50 Integration Appliance
is supported as another runtime environment besides the traditional J2EE application
servers. This tutorial shows you how to use Data Studio to generate Data Web service
runtime artifacts for DataPower. Additionally, learn how those artifacts can be deployed on an IBM WebSphere DataPower XI50 Integration Appliance.

Use an XML database in PHP and Java applications
Native XML databases have grown in popularity along with XML, because data
is stored as native XML, rather than through tables in a traditional database. Using
a native XML database means that a change to the schema requires minimal changes to
your code and no change to the database. PHP and Java(TM) developers can benefit greatly
from using native XML databases. In this tutorial, you will get quickly up to speed using a native XML database and see how to use it to benefit XML development.
