IBM Db2 databases
To access Db2® database systems for Linux, Unix, Windows, IBM i, z/OS®, and dashDB®, use the IBM® InfoSphere® DataStage® Db2® connector.
A connector is a component that provides data connectivity and metadata integration for external data sources, such as relational databases or messaging software. A connector typically includes a stage that is specific to the external data source.
The Db2 Connector is currently the only stage dedicated for accessing Db2 database systems. In
previous releases, the following stages were available which are now deprecated:
- Db2 API stage
- Db2 UDB Enterprise stage
- Db2 UDB Load stage
- Db2Z stage
If you have jobs that use the older stages and want to use the Db2 connector, use the Connector Migration Tool to migrate then.
Note:
- Partitioning type 'Db2 Connector' does not support DB2 for i database
