IBM DB2

The IBM_DB_SA library provides a Python / SQLAlchemy interface to IBM Data Servers.

Here's the recommended connection string:

db2+ibm_db://{username}:{passport}@{hostname}:{port}/{database}

There are two DB2 dialect versions implemented in SQLAlchemy. If you are connecting to a DB2 version without LIMIT [n] syntax, the recommended connection string to be able to use the SQL Lab is:

ibm_db_sa://{username}:{passport}@{hostname}:{port}/{database}
