This book features all the information you need to complete the certification exams together with your experience and a DB2 copy.Many people that I know read and study this book, and on the day before the exams read the DevelopeWorks' tutorial as flash cards..This book together with a free DB2 copy (DB2 Express-C) are what you need to pass the exams.If you are not interested in the certification, this book is still for you if you need a great reference book or complete guide for DBAs.If you are a self made DBA may be astonhised/surprised after you read the book, because of some many new details or best practices you will find.If you are a total beginner, pick this book together with the Understanding DB2: Learning Visually with Examples and you are all set to go.

I bought this book to prepare for my DB2 certification. It has useful information especially for beginners but I am not a beginner so I already know most of what's discussed in the book. Is is an easy read and for that I give it 3 stars but this is not the best reference guide for a certification.

I ordered this a while back but hadn't gotten a chance to read it until a major snowstorm with power out for several days.Although a DB2 user for over 20 years, I found considerable new information. There was also a section on the free downloadable DB2DEMO program which is a great resource for sample SQL queries exercising new functionality.

Excellent Book!!! This is comprehensive book of DB2 9 it was written using a easy language with examples and pictures.

There is no many db2 books in the marketing. It is the best one for exam or handbook for dba.But it is not up to date to DB2 9.7.
