IBM Db2 Community Edition is a free-to-download, free-to-use edition of the IBM Db2 database, which has both XML database and relational database management system features. Version 11.5 provides all core capabilities of Db2 but is limited to 4 virtual processor cores, 16 GB of instance memory, has no enterprise-level support, and no fix packs ...
The IBM Information Management System (IMS) is a joint hierarchical database and information management system that supports transaction processing. [1] Development began in 1966 to keep track of the bill of materials for the Saturn V rocket of the Apollo program, and the first version on the IBM System/360 Model 65 was completed in 1967 as ICS/DL/I and officially installed in August 1968.
In DB2 version 9.7 IBM also added a PL/SQL front-end to this infrastructure (called "SQL Unified Runtime Engine"), meaning that procedural SQL using either the ISO standard or Oracle's syntax compile to bytecode running on the same engine in DB2.
A little later, IBM also introduced Db2, another SQL-based DBMS, this one for the MVS operating system. The two products have coexisted since then; however, SQL/DS was rebranded as "DB2 for VM and VSE" in the late 1990s.

SPUFI (SQL Processor Using File Input) is a database facility invented by IBM for interfacing with their Db2 system. It is accessed from within TSO ISPF from the DB2I Primary Option menu. SPUFI allows direct input of SQL commands in the TSO environment, rather than having them embedded within a program.
Until late 2005 IBM also marketed an OEM version of Essbase as DB2 OLAP Server. [1] The database researcher E. F. Codd coined the term "on-line analytical processing" in a whitepaper [2] that set out twelve rules for analytic systems (an allusion to his earlier famous set of twelve rules defining the relational model).
Since version 9.7 IBM DB2 supports autonomous transactions. [6] Before trigger is for checking data and deciding if operation should be permitted. If exception is thrown from before trigger then operation is aborted and no data are changed. In DB2 before triggers are read only — you can't modify data in before triggers.
