In this IBM® Redbooks® publication, we describe the new DB2 Oracle Database compatibility features. The latest version of DB2® includes extensive native support for the PL/SQL procedural language, new data types, scalar functions, improved concurrency, built-in packages, OCI, SQL*Plus, and more. These features dramatically improve the ease of developing applications that run on both DB2 and Oracle, and simplify the process of moving from Oracle to DB2. In addition, IBM now provides rich tooling to simplify the enablement process, such as the highly scalable IBM Data Movement Tool for moving schema and data into DB2, and an Editor and Profiler for PL/SQL provided by way of the Optim™ Data Studio tool suite. This Oracle to DB2 migration guide describes new technology, best practices for moving to DB2, and how to handle some common scenarios. It is now dramatically easier than ever to move to DB2 and experience the benefits of the IBM industry leading database, which offers a lower cost of ownership, ease of use, storage savings, industry leading performance, and superior customer support.

This IBM® Redbooks® publication can help you develop content and process management applications with IBM FileNet® APIs. The IBM FileNet P8 suite of products contains a set of robust APIs that range from core platform APIs to supporting application APIs. This book focuses specifically on Content Engine and Process Engine APIs. Content Engine API topics that we discuss include creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting objects; querying and viewing documents; and batching and batch execution. We also explore more complex topics, including permissions and authorization, versioning, relationships, annotations, workflow subscriptions and event actions, metadata discovery, and dynamic security inheritance. Process Engine API topics that we discuss include launching a workflow, searching for and processing work items, and working with process status. The more complex topics we cover include, Component Integrator application space, role, workbasket, resource navigation in Process Engine REST API, ECM Widgets, and building a custom Get Next In-basket widget. To help you better understand programming with IBM FileNet APIs, we provide a sample application implemented for a fictional company. We include the data model, security model, workflows, and various applications developed for the sample. You can download them for your reference. This book is intended for IBM FileNet P8 application developers. We recommend using this book in conjunction with the online ECM help.
