    Hi Steven James,

    This Database Associate certification is an entry-level exam for a user of any of the DB2 for the LUW family of products. This individual is knowledgeable about the fundamental concepts of DB2 11.1 for LUW through either hands-on experience or formal and informal education.

    The database associate should have an in-depth knowledge of the basic to intermediate tasks required in day-to-day administration, basic SQL (Structured Query Language), understand which additional products are available with DB2 11.1, understand how to create databases and database objects, and have a basic knowledge of database security and transaction isolation.

    Recommended Prerequisite Skills

    • Entry-level experience using DB2 11
    • Basic knowledge of SQL

    This certification requires 1 exam. Click on the link below to see exam details, exam objectives, suggested training and sample tests.

    • Study the overview and objectives.

    The exam objective information describes the topics to be covered for each section of the exam. The objectives also indicate the emphasis placed on each topic by showing the percentage of the exam that is dedicated to the section. The actual objectives are listed as specific tasks & knowledge areas included in each section. The exam questions are based on these objectives.

    You'll find the recommended preparation material i.e book under the Exam Preparation tab. I'd also recommend you to go for the scenario-based C2090-616 practice questions and a practice test offered by Study4Exam.Com that are specifically made for the IBM Exams. These scenario-based practice questions cover all the latest exam topics will help you understand the core concepts and the practice test will serve as an adaptive companion tool to assess your knowledge and exam readiness to help prepare for the exam.
