Tutorial: Label-based access control, a new approach to security in DB2 Viper

Label-based access control (LBAC) is a security feature introduced in the DB2 Viper release. With LBAC, administrators can control read and write access of a user at the table, column, and row level. This tutorial includes use-case scenarios that demonstrate how users can apply LBAC to protect their data from illegal access, and yet have the flexibility of allowing users to access data restrictively. The tutorial provides a step-by-step guide to creating LBAC solutions based on use-case scenarios.

Tutorial: Integrate DB2 Express-C into service-oriented applications using ActiveGrid LAMP Studio: How to build a Web 2.0 application

The recent release of IBM DB2 Express-C is another strong endorsement for LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, Perl/PHP/Python) as a compelling, lightweight enterprise application platform. Enterprise developers today are increasingly using LAMP to integrate Web services and databases on the front-end, at the Web-tier. With IBM DB2 Express-C, now developers have maximum flexibility in their choice of dataservers. In this tutorial, learn how to use ActiveGrid's LAMP Studio (an open source tool) to write service-oriented applications that can access both DB2 Express-C data and stored procedures. Together, LAMP Studio and DB2 Express-C speed the application development process and make it possible to weave existing enterprise systems into rich Web applications, using open standards such as BPEL and Ajax.
