3.5 Conclusion
PHP allows rapid Web application development and DB2 9 allows easy
manipulation and storage of XML data, plus the capability to perform traditional
relational database operations as well.
There are simply far too many interesting PHP application development topics to
discuss in this chapter. We hope that the various references and working
application examples provided in this chapter have given you some ideas about
using the framework with DB2 Express-C to develop your next database driven
Web application.
As the volume of XML data generated and used continues to grow in the years to
come, easy interoperability between disparate systems seems closer than ever.
The XCS will be available to enable developers of all skill levels to quickly and
easily create the applications that will allow these systems to talk the common
language of XML. An IBM DB2 9 implementation of the XCS further combines
powerful XML storage and XQuery technologies with a world-class relational
database management system.

material, and also be sure to download and try the application code discussed in
this chapter.
