DB2 Essentials illuminates key concepts with examples drawn from the authors' extensive experience with DB2 in enterprise environments. Raul F. Chong and Clara Liu explain how DB2 has evolved, what's new, and how to choose the right products, editions, and tools.

Each chapter starts with an illustrative overview to introduce its key concepts using a big picture approach.
