title: Spring Boot app configuration with DB2 database
body: <p>Could someone with experience please share recommendations on configuring a db2 database with a Spring Boot App? </p>
  
  <p>Creating a Spring Boot app that will access a db2 table using JpaRepository to render results from query in an HTML view using Thymeleaf.  </p>
  
  <p>Looking for a general explanation on how to configure a Spring Boot App that will access a db2 table using Spring Data Jpa.  Specifically, what would I need in my <code>build.gradle</code> and <code>application.properties</code> to make this happen?</p>
