Editions:

         DB2 for Linux, Unix and Windows has three separate editions: IBM DB2 Express-C, Workgroup Server Edition, and Enterprise Server Edition. Each of these editions has different groups of features for different sized workloads. Applications built for lower editions of DB2 are guaranteed to work on higher editions but at a higher level of performance.DB2 Express-C runs on 32 and 64bit Windows, Linux on x86, x64 and POWER processors, Solaris on x64 CPU and Intel machines running Mac OS X.
         DB2 for z/OS (the mainframe) is available in its traditional product packaging, or in the Value Unit Edition, which allows customers to instead pay a one-time charge.
         DB2 for i (the former DB2/400) is the third major incarnation of DB2. It is very closely incorporated into the operating system of the IBM System i machines.
