<H2>Development simplified: leverage a single database for structured and unstructured data</H2>
New applications must often leverage multiple types of data from many sources; and you have to deliver fast. While relational or transactional data is at the core of applications, and now you must also integrate unstructured sources like geo-location information, emails, and more. Instead of coding with different databases for different data types, why not use a single database to reduce complexity and deliver applications faster?
IBM Db2 database software stores both relational data and unstructured data like JSON in a single database to make coding simple. Furthermore, Db2 meets requirements for enterprise scalability, availability and reliability. Why does it matter? Because you can do it right the first time without wasting time and productivity cycles to rewrite database components of your applications before deployment.

If you know SQL and have some familiarity with programming database calls into your applications, then this workshop will get you productive on Db2 very quickly.
We will get you started with Db2 Developer Community edition, a free and full feature software that you can “download and go” on your laptop. We will also show you how to create a database and a table in Db2, then load data and point you to our sample applications.
Join the IBM Db2 team, IDUG.org, and the Twin Cities of Minnesota DB2 Users Group to learn how Db2 can help you simplify coding and speed your applications to market.
