O-O, What Have They Done to DB2?
Summary: Reports integrating structured types, hierarchies, references, path expressions, and object views into commercial DB2 UDB. The distinctive design preserves full relational query optimization while extending SQL toward object-relational modeling and future constraints/triggers. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
