Book Description
In this book, you will learn about Structured Query Language (SQL), but with an IBM eServer i5/iSeries twist. The future seems clear on this point: SQL is the direction of the future for IBM's Universal Database. While it is true that the majority of existing databases on the i5 and iSeries were created with DDS, it's still undeniable that DDS will slowly fade from use, much like the RPG program cycle. With a practical "how-to" style, SQL for eServer i5 and iSeries first introduces you to the basics essential for any developer to build a solid foundation. Then the book examines--in detail--the many ways in which SQL functions on the iSeries. All possible environments are explored: the traditional 5250 green-screen applications, the SQL scripting tool within iSeries Navigator, and the methods of accessing iSeries databases from within Visual Basic. Learn through real-life examples of using SQL to interact with DB2 databases. You'll learn the ins and outs of sub-selects, joins, unions, and views, as well as tips and techniques for interacting with legacy applications, and so much more. Though intended for programmers already familiar with SQL, beginners will appreciate the book's handy tutorial Appendix to get started with SQL basics. After reading this book, you'll see that the i5/iSeries platform is far more than the green-screen application server it's often perceived as and that it is indeed one of the finest systems available for use as a business server today. Make your database access cutting-edge with SQL for eServer i5 and iSeries. In this book you will learn to: - Incorporate SQL into existing iSeries business and client-side applications - Embed SQL within RPG programs, merging the flexibility of SQL with the power of RPG - Implement referential constraints, primary and unique key indexes, and check constraints - Journal physical files, and find out why this task is so important - Extend your database with user-defined functions and procedures - Use new GUI development tools for running, debugging, and tuning SQL statements.

IBM System i Security: Protecting i5/OS Data with Encryption
Author: Yessong Johng
Publisher: IBM Redbooks
ISBN: 0738485373
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Regulatory and industry-specific requirements, such as SOX, Visa PCI, HIPAA, and so on, require that sensitive data must be stored securely and protected against unauthorized access or modifications. Several of the requirements state that data must be encrypted. IBM® i5/OS® offers several options that allow customers to encrypt data in the database tables. However, encryption is not a trivial task. Careful planning is essential for successful implementation of data encryption project. In the worst case, you would not be able to retrieve clear text information from encrypted data. This IBM Redbooks® publication is designed to help planners, implementers, and programmers by providing three key pieces of information: Part 1, "Introduction to data encryption" on page 1, introduces key concepts, terminology, algorithms, and key management. Understanding these is important to follow the rest of the book. If you are already familiar with the general concepts of cryptography and the data encryption aspect of it, you may skip this part. Part 2, "Planning for data encryption" on page 37, provides critical information for planning a data encryption project on i5/OS. Part 3, "Implementation of data encryption" on page 113, provides various implementation scenarios with a step-by-step guide.

Procedures, triggers, and user-defined functions (UDFs) are the key database software features for developing robust and distributed applications. IBM Universal DatabaseTM for i (IBM DB2® for i) supported these features for many years, and they were enhanced in V5R1, V5R2, and V5R3 of IBM® OS/400® and V5R4 of IBM i5/OSTM. This IBM Redbooks® publication includes several of the announced features for procedures, triggers, and UDFs in V5R1, V5R2, V5R3, and V5R4. This book includes suggestions, guidelines, and practical examples to help you effectively develop IBM DB2 for i procedures, triggers, and UDFs. The following topics are covered in this book: External stored procedures and triggers Java procedures (both Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) and Structured Query Language for Java (SQLJ)) External triggers External UDFs This publication also offers examples that were developed in several programming languages, including RPG, COBOL, C, Java, and Visual Basic, by using native and SQL data access interfaces. This book is part of the original IBM Redbooks publication, Stored Procedures, Triggers, and User-Defined Functions on DB2 Universal Database for iSeries, SG24-6503-02, that covered external procedures, triggers, and functions, and also SQL procedures, triggers, and functions. All of the information that relates to external routines was left in this publication. All of the information that relates to SQL routines was rewritten and updated. This information is in the new IBM Redbooks publication, SQL Procedures, Triggers, and Functions on IBM DB2 for i, SG24-8326. This book is intended for anyone who wants to develop IBM DB2 for i procedures, triggers, and UDFs. Before you read this book, you need to know about relational database technology and the application development environment on the IBM i server.

IBM i Program Conversion: Getting Ready for 6.1 and Beyond
Author: Deb Landon
Publisher: IBM Redbooks
ISBN: 0738451258
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
IBM® delivered IBM i 6.1 in March 2008. With 6.1, IBM exploits the capabilities of the Machine Interface (MI) architecture to significantly improve programs. Programs can benefit from better performance, a range of new operating system and processor capabilities, and even stronger system integrity. To enable these improvements, all MI programs created for previous releases must be converted to run on 6.1 or a later release. MI programs include integrated language environment (ILE) and original program model (OPM) programs. To convert a program, its creation data, which is a subset of observability, must be available. MI programs retain creation data by default, so that most programs can be converted, going all the way back to programs that were originally created for System/38. Even if an option was chosen to remove creation data from external access, Licensed Internal Code (LIC) can still access the creation data if the target releases of the program and its constituent modules are V5R1 or later. Thus a program lacks sufficient creation data for conversion only if the program or at least one of its modules was created for IBM OS/400® V4R5 or an earlier release and creation data was explicitly removed. You can run the Analyze Object Conversion (ANZOBJCVN) command on V5R4 or V5R3 to help plan for your upgrade. The ANZOBJCVN command identifies programs that will not convert to run on 6.1 or later releases, if any, and estimates the times that are required for the program conversions. It also provides information about two other types of conversions: integrated file system names and spooled files. You can access the ANZOBJCVN command by loading and applying the appropriate PTFs that are listed in this paper. This IBM RedpaperTM publication is intended for system administrators and field technicians to help them understand and prepare for upgrading or migrating to 6.1 or a later release. It explains what the program conversion is and why programs are being created or recreated on 6.1 or a later release. It then provides detailed steps for using the ANZOBJCVN tool on V5R3 or V5R4 to prepare for object conversions. Finally, it discusses the program conversion methods for converting programs to run on 6.1 or a later release. Note: The first edition of this paper was entitled IBM i5/OS Program Conversion: Getting Ready for i5/OS V6R1, REDP-4293-00. The title of this second edition has been slightly modified to IBM i Program Conversion: Getting Ready for 6.1 and Beyond, REDP-4293-01, to reflect the new naming conventions for IBM i.
