IBM DB2 is the database of choice for enterprise-wide solutions. Optimized to deliver industry-leading performance while lowering costs, IBM DB2 offers extreme performance, flexibility, scalability and reliability for any size organization.

The DB2 plugin for CloudBees CD/RO allows you to drive the deployment of DB2 database components as part of multi-tier web application releases.  Using the integration, you can run any SQL commands to perform database deployment and management tasks such as creating, dropping or backing up tables, or updating schema and content.
