More on the ision dia!ra'

. The DB2 serer is a pure data$ase serer there is no

transaction 'ana!e'ent su$s"ste' on the serer

. This has $een the standard setup for so'e ti'e in the

distri$uted s"ste's ord. Mainfra'es ith DB2 often hae CICS or IMS, as e usua"

$ecause the or!anization ran a DB2accessin! transactiona

oroad $efore DB2 stored procedure functionait" as aaia$e
