SQL is playing an ever-increasing role in the IBM i operating system (aka iSeries, AS/400) in enterprise database design, supplanting legacy DDS. This class shows you how to use industry-standard SQL Data Definition Language to retrieve, analyze and modify the data in an IBM i database.
Recommended schedule: 2 days
Who Should Attend This class is for existing IBM i programmers and users who want to understand SQL Data Manipulation Language and its use in IBM i.
