## Components
1. The **ibm_db** contains:
- * **ibm_db** driver: Python driver for IBM Db2 for LUW, IBM Informix and IBM Db2 for z/OS databases. Uses the IBM Data Server Driver for ODBC and CLI APIs to connect to IBM Db2 for LUW and Informix.
- * **ibm_db_dbi**: Python driver for IBM Db2 for LUW and IBM Informix databases that complies to the DB-API 2.0 specification.

+- Connection to `Db2 for LUW` Server using `ibm_db` driver is free.
- `ibm_db` returns SQL1598N error in absence of a valid db2connect license. SQL1598N error is returned by the Db2 Server to client.
To suppress this error, Db2 server must be activated with db2connectactivate utility OR a client side db2connect license file must exist.
