RE: Thoughts/experiences with JSON/XML on DB2

Rob Berendt:
How would you handle sequence? Meaning that a part or configuration of a given record type applies to the parent item which is the most recent record of a different given record type .


Mike Jones:
You're correct that some formats could be combined, but other formats would actually require multiple tables.


Vernon Hamberg:
This a PF. The last position is a letter to indicate the record type. The old-school way is to use different I-specs based on that letter. Procedures don't allow I-specs, so now I read into a generic DS, and then load it into the appropriate DS based on the last letter in the generic DS.

I'm not clear on the exact terminology since I wasn't around when this stuff was in common usage (assuming of course it was ever in common usage).
