node.js manage communication with the DB2 database

how can i manage communication with the database in node.js? is there any module that can i use?? i need to get adn store data from DB2 on IBM i.

At the moment i'm using Zend Framework but i want replace my php function to get store from database, to use javascript in server side with node.js

Is this a good idea? can someone give me advice if this way is efficent in terms of speed of access to the database?? i see a list of module as: MongoDB, CouchDB and Redis but DB2 is supported? wich i can choose?

thanks!

Solution

  • I think you can use node-odbc module.

    Today I succeed connecting to AIX5.3 DB2 server(V8.X) from linux machine(ubuntu 10.10) using node.js

    I've installed and configured below...

    1) node-odbc

    2) unixODBC

    3) db2 runtime client
