Wire listener for JSON

The JSON wire listener acts as a mid-tier gateway server between MongoDB applications and the Db2 database server. This wire listener leverages JSON API to interface with the Db2 database.

Tip: The Java™ API is no longer the recommended approach for working with JSON data in Db2 for z/OS®. For best results, use SQL and the built-in functions that are supplied with Db2 for z/OS instead. For more information, see Working with JSON documents by using SQL.

You can use a Mongo application that is written in one of the supported application languages (such as Java, NodeJS, or pymongo), or use the Mongo command-line interface to communicate with the Db2 database.
