Staring version 7 UDB, Datajoiner is integrated into UDB (Federated). This with db2 
relational connect will give READ access to heterogeneous databases and other DB2 
flavors. Non non DB2 databases,
you have to install DB2 Relational Connect. DB2 relational connect doesn't come with 
UDB and has to be ordered separately. Unlike datajoiner, federated can be used by the 
same instance. Write access
functionality is planned in the next release (v8, I guess). So based on the type of 
access you need (read/write) you can use FEDERATED or DATAJOINER.

You can't access them just using UDB. You need an additional Software called as DB2 
Data Joiner which can connect to heterogeneous database like Informix, Sybase etc..

Refer to the following IBM Website to get more details about this product.
