Overview
Launch your business into the global marketplace with IBM's Net.Data
for OS/2(R), AIX(R), and Windows NT. Businesses today want to
harness the power of the Web to reach the global marketplace. With
IBM Net.Data, you can build interactive Web-sites with data from the
sources that you have in your business today: relational data, file
data, even Lotus Notes data. Whether you are building interactive
catalogs of products, allowing customers to track orders, or
conducting electronic commerce, your Net.Data-driven application gets
your data to (and from) a worldwide audience.
Following on the success of DB2(R) World Wide Web Connection, IBM
Net.Data delivers a powerful framework for Web applications. In
addition to connecting to diverse data sources, Net.Data provides for
high performance, robust application development function, and
exploitation of existing business logic.
Net.Data provides native access to the data you need in your business
environment: DB2 on all platforms, as well as Oracle, Sybase and
file data. In addition, Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) gives
access to many other relational data sources. And, Net.Data
optimizes access to advanced objects in the DB2 family such as DB2
Relational Extenders and DB2 stored procedures.
By tightly integrating with specific Web-server interfaces, Net.Data
can operate as an extension of the Web Server, delivering improved
performance over common gateway interface (CGI) applications.
Net.Data provides high performance access to all of your data
sources, including hot connectivity to your DB2 data sources.
Net.Data has extensive application development functionality. A rich
macro language, conditional logic, HTML and VRML support, HTML
variable substitution, JDBC interface to DB2 data, and support for
multiple data sources result in flexible yet robust Web application.
You can repurpose your existing client/server applications to the
Web, using your existing business logic. Imbed dynamic SQL, Java
applets and JavaScripts, Perl and REXX in your Net.Data application,
or call DLLs written in C/C++. By leveraging your existing business
applications, you can get your Web applications up and running
quickly with Net.Data.
Intended Customers

from any Web client and access data from a variety of data sources.
The following environment is required:
o Any HTML-compliant Web Browser
o Any Web Server
o Net.Data
o Database or database client access
o OS/2, AIX or Windows NT
Planned Availability Dates:

DESCRIPTION
The first generation of Web-sites incorporated static data, which
quickly loses currency and appeal. The next generation of Web-sites
will be interactive, with data included dynamically from a variety of
data sources. Net.Data builds on the strength of its predecessor
product, DB2 WWW Connection, in enabling interactive, data-rich
sites. Net.Data can significantly improve the processing time for
first-generation dataweb applications, and allows the application
developer to build new-generation processes that deliver even faster
performance in Internet-to-data transactions. All DB2 WWW Connection
applications should be compatible with and perform better with
Net.Data. Also, Net.Data applications will be able to exploit the
latest Web browser technology, such as Netscape cookies which allow
Web applications to keep track of repeated visits to a Web site.
Net.Data applications are a type of macro file containing named
sections that can specify HTML and VRML output, SQL input and output,
directions for the HTML and SQL statements to communicate with each
other, and other optional application logic and processing calls.
The Net.Data product provides an open application development
environment which supports the newest HTML features and thus allows
customization of HTML output. Net.Data also supports interaction of
its applications with other scripted or compiled languages, extending
the power and flexibility of Web applications.
Live connectivity: IBM Net.Data supports hot connectivity for DB2
processes initiated by Net.Data. This means that a scheduling
process, or connection manager, keeps track of all requests to the
DB2 database. Once a Net.Data request is directed to the DB2 data
source, the scheduling process is able to manage the use and reuse of
that thread, thus improving the performance of Net.Data applications
beyond that of standard database applications.
Tighter integration with specific Web server APIs: Net.Data supports
the Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for the IBM Internet
Connection Servers (ICAPI), Netscape Servers (NSAPI), and Microsoft's
Internet Information Server (ISAPI). Net.Data support for the Web
server APIs means that a Web server will treat Net.Data as a DLL
application and allow Net.Data to operate as an extension of the Web
server, thus delivering improved performance over standard CGI
applications.
Native support for data sources: IBM Net.Data can connect to many
data sources directly through the vendor's API, thus eliminating the
need for ODBC. Net.Data provides native support for DB2, Oracle, and
Sybase databases on AIX. In addition, Net.Data provides native
support for flat file data, and provides features for retrieving and
updating files.
Dynamic connection to heterogeneous data sources: Net.Data provides
an ODBC interface to other data sources. Connection to many data
sources, such as Microsoft, CA-Ingres, and Lotus Notes can be
accomplished by the use of ODBC drivers. Net.Data works with ODBC
drivers from vendors such as Visigenic. Via DDCS, any DRDA(R)
application server can provide access to additional data sources.
Optimized features for access to the DB2 family: Net.Data works with
all of the advanced data types provided by DB2 and by the DB2
Extenders object relational data types (video, image, audio, scanned
text). Bring a DB2 stored image into your Web page, or any other
object stored in DB2. In addition, a JDBC class library provides
access to DB2 data types from Java applets and Java applications.
With Net.Data, you can invoke DB2 stored procedures. With stored
procedures you can group application logic for improved performance.
The stored procedure is run on the same server as DB2. Your Web
application can call stored procedures and use the results in your
Web page. You can use VisualAge(TM) for BASIC, or any type of DB2
stored procedure in your Net.Data application.
Java class libraries and JavaScripts: Net.Data provides Java applet
and JavaScript interfaces to improve the ability of the universal Web
client to perform client-side processing. For example, the
application developer may use one of the provided Java applets to
create a graphical report, such as a pie chart, from the results of a
Net.Data application. The Web developer could also develop other
Java applets with a tool such as VisualAge for Java. Net.Data
provides a JavaScript interface and a library of JavaScripts,
including validation routines for data entered at the client's Web
browser. This library can be a great benefit for the user, who can
be alerted quickly to an entry error. Types of JavaScripts provided
include alphabetic, numeric, and alphanumeric validation.
Advanced macro language features: Net.Data provides a full-featured
macro capability which supports sophisticated Web application
development. Conditional logic allows for customization of the
Net.Data application. HTML variable substitution allows the user to
pass data from one Web page to another, as well as for ease of
maintenance. Net.data applications can access more than one database
per application request, providing flexibility to the application
developer and more data sources to the application. Net.Data
applications can include files as well as URLs, allowing
modularization and the sharing of components with other applications.
Functions, both built-in and user-written, allow complex logic to be
included in the application. Net.Data provides DB2 cursor simulation
using dirty read between Web pages. Net.Data provides functions for
formatting the results of queries onto the Web page.
Extensible back-end support: Net.Data supplies a set of DLLs which
will allow users to write and access system functions as well as
functions written with SQL, REXX, Perl, and Java, which can be
included in the Net.Data macro file. With the Net.Data API, the
application developer can develop the linkage to programs written in
C or C++. Net.Data provides an externalized back-end interface to
link the DLL created by the user. Developers may also choose to
write their own DLLs to supply functions which in turn can be called
by Net.Data applications.
The extensible back-end support allows the application developer to
reuse existing applications written in these languages, thus
leveraging the customer's library of existing business logic in
building dynamic Web-based applications.
Web browser and Web Server independence: With Net.Data, you aren't
restricted to a specific Web browser or Web Server as with many other
products. Use the products that you have already -- Net.Data is able
to work with the ones you already know and love, for maximum
flexibility.
SQL Assistant and sample programs: Net.Data comes with sample
programs to get the Web developer up and running quickly. The
Net.Data SQL Assistant is a sample program to enable users to look up
the system catalog information about databases, tables and columns,
to alter the table definition, to insert into the table, and to query
against the table. Input validation of the inserted values against
their datatypes is performed right at the client side.
Platform support: Not all functionality is provided on all
platforms. For example, native Oracle and Sybase support initially
will be provided on AIX only. The Netscape Server is not yet
available on OS/2 and AIX 4.1, so NSAPI support is not provided on
these platforms.
Please check the Net.Data Web pages for the most current information
on platform support.
Net.Data and IBM Partner Products: IBM Net.Data is one of IBM's
strategic products for enabling Internet access to data on
heterogeneous platforms, including DB2. This strategy includes
Net.Data on many platforms and as part of a group of IBM and partner
products that deliver an end-to-end-solution for repurposing
client/server business applications for the Internet and intranet.
The following IBM and IBM partner products, with Net.Data, provide
the application developer with robust tools for building dynamic
Web-based applications.

Lotus Approach 97 and the DB2 Web Sizing Assistant: Lotus Approach
is a top-rated relational desktop database that enables everyone on a
business team to track, manage, and analyze business information.
DB2 users are discovering that Approach is an ideal platform for
accessing DB2 data. Approach can quickly transform DB2 data into
dynamic applications, and the DB2 Web Sizing Assistant turns those
applications into Web applications that can be used with DB2 WWW
Connection and with Net.Data to enable Web access to DB2 data. This
means that the same application can be used to access data in a
LAN/WAN environment and then enabled to run on any Web server
platform and access data from the Internet.
The Lotus Approach 97 DB2 Web Sizing Assistant will be packaged with
Lotus Approach 97. More information about Lotus Approach is
