WebSphere

Using similar technology to that found in the Development Center, WebSphere Studio Application Developer also provides a stored procedure builder and user-defined function builder. If you work with WebSphere to develop applications, you can access many of the same features of the Development Center and take advantage of both the WebSphere suite of products and the power of DB2.

XML Extender enhancements

New features have been added to the XML Extender: The XML Extender now supports Web services with the Web services Object Runtime Framework (WORF), a set of tools for implementing Web services with DB2. The XML Extender now supports MQSeries so that you can send XML documents to, or retrieve documents from, MQSeries message queues.
