Chapter 28. Accessing DB2 Universal Database Servers from Host and AS/400 Applications

Host and AS/400 applications can access DB2 Universal Database data using DB2 Workgroup Edition, DB2 Enterprise Edition and DB2 Extended Enterprise Edition. The following are examples of the use of this access:

Host or AS/400 applications
If you are migrating data from your host or AS/400 database to a DB2 Universal Database server, you can continue to use your existing host or AS/400 applications by having them access the data from DB2 Universal Database. This can allow for staged migration from the host or the AS/400 system.

Host or AS/400 Applications leveraging DB2 Extended Enterprise Edition
Your host or AS/400 application can use the parallel processing power of DB2 Universal Database for CPU intensive queries.

Access Distributed Data
Your host or AS/400 application can access distributed data stored in departmental DB2 Universal Database servers.
