IBM Query Management Facility (QMF) is a programming language that provides tools for creating, running, and maintaining queries and reports against IBM Db2 databases. It offers an interface enabling users to interact with the data stored within these relational database systems. With QMF, programmers can write SQL commands or create more complex queries using its own scripting language. The platform also lets users develop query-based applications by providing a set of APIs for integrating database access into other programs on the mainframe or distributed environments, making it possible to extract precise information from vast amounts of structured data stored in Db2 systems across enterprises.
