The main difference here is that the primar y key is now generated as an attribute

and a sequence has been forced on the remaining columns and they can be set

to null.

6.4 DB2 XML Extender

This section has been adapted from Chapter 9 of the redbook

DB2 e-business

Guide

(SG2-6539).

There are different DB2 Extender products available to provide the functions to

support e-Business requirements that include support for different media types,

full text search capability, fast search capability to be used over the Internet, and

support for XML data. These are:

򐂰XML Extender

򐂰Text Extender

򐂰Net Search Extender

򐂰Audio Image Video (AIV) Extender

The basic idea behind all the DB2 extenders is that they provide the means to

support a new data type. That is, a table column can hold special type of data,

such as a text document. In order to support the new data type, the extenders

define user defined types, user defined functions, stored procedures, and a new

set of tables. The Extenders also exploit DB2's support for large objects of up to

2 gigabytes, and use DB2 triggers to provide integrity checking across database

tables ensuring the referential integrity of the data.

A User-Defined Type (UDT) is a way to create a new data type that has its own

semantics based on existing built-in types. For example, the XML Extender

creates the XMLCLOB UDT from the existing CLOB (character large object) data

type to support XML data in DB2. T he CLOB data type is itself derived from the

LOB (large object) data type.
