IBM Db2 is a family of data management products from IBM that includes relational and hybrid database servers running on cloud, distributed, and z/OS platforms, supporting transactional, analytical, and AI workloads. Db2 exposes RESTful services that let applications create, discover, execute, and manage user-defined services natively against the database, and IBM Db2 as a Service on IBM Cloud provides a managed REST API for administering and querying cloud-hosted Db2 databases. Authentication is performed via HTTP basic auth, client certificates, or IBM Cloud IAM Bearer tokens depending on the deployment.
