E9.2 SQL client AS400-DB2 free

[PavelK]

Hello,
please may i ask for your recomandation?
For SQL i am using "IBM i Access Client Solution".
It is nice simple tool, but "SQL Developper from Oracle is much more better. "
Exist any good free alternative?

For "SQL developper" not found working JDBC driver for AS400-DB.

Thank you very much
P.

I love DBeaver (despite the questionable name)!!
The built-in driver (that DBeaver auto-downloads) works great for me.

DBeaver brings with it a bit of a learning curve, but once you settle in I think it's great. Do be careful, as it by default allows for in-grid editing and other things that might cause issues. Everything is configurable though.

Make sure you get DBeaver community edition to try it out (before you upgrade & pay for pro) https://dbeaver.io/download/

Long ago, in another life, I used squirrel on the iSeries. You gotta get off that thing man.
