Product Overview

The RLX/SQL architecture comprises several key components that facilitate the integration of DB2 database operations within REXX applications on z/OS. The primary components include the REXX interpreter, the SQL preprocessor, and the DB2 interface. The REXX interpreter executes the REXX code, including embedded SQL statements.

The SQL preprocessor translates the embedded SQL statements into a format that DB2 can understand. The DB2 interface handles the communication between the REXX program and the DB2 database. Communication between these components occurs through the z/OS operating system and the DB2 subsystem.

The REXX program sends SQL statements to the SQL preprocessor, which then interacts with the DB2 interface to execute the statements against the DB2 database. Data is stored within the DB2 database, which utilizes various storage mechanisms. Network requirements include connectivity to the DB2 subsystem, typically through TCP/IP.

The product supports DB2's authentication mechanisms and access control. Compared to other solutions, RLX/SQL offers a streamlined approach, reducing the need for external database interfaces and enhancing developer productivity. It supports SQL/XML, allowing for the manipulation of XML data within SQL queries.
