DB2 University goes live

Antonio Cangiano

DB2 University is a website that’s aimed at providing (mostly free) database courses. Its public beta went live today.

While the focus is clearly on the free DB2 Express-C — as the name implies — the initial lineup of free courses already includes “SQL Fundamentals I”, which is a course that’s worth following regardless of your database of choice.

Feel free to watch the intro below, and sign up with the site. Free hardcopies of DB2 books and exam certification vouchers are also up for grabs.

    Very nice! (though it did ask me to “enrol” in the course.)
