I'm not clear if I understand the question...
The DB2 for LUW engine is developed in C/C++.
DB2 uses a standard protocol named DRDA to communicate with the client.
DB2 has several clients natively talking to DRDA: CLI/ODBC and JDBC Type
4 amongst them.
Other client APIs may be built on top of CLI, such as Ruby on Rails,
Perl or PHP

Does that help?
Serge
