DB2 10.1 Fundamentals: Certification Study Guide

Beginning with an explanation of the certification process and working through fundamental exam objectives, this guide gives test-takers all they need to know to pass IBM's DB2 10.1 Fundamentals certification exam (Exam 610). All the subjects covered on the exam are included: planning, security, data concurrency, working with databases and database objects, working with data using SQL and XQuery, working with DB2 tables, views, and indexes—and more. The book concludes with an extensive set of 150 practice questions that mirror the questions found on the exam and detailed answers that explain why the chosen answer is correct and why the others are wrong. Written by a DB2 authority who has helped IBM develop 21 DB2 certification exams, this is the ultimate resource for those who plan to earn their IBM Certified Database Associate certification.
