Replication: Change Data Capture

Showing 322

Refresh : subset row

Hi, The idea is to have No limit for SQL length when we need to refresh a subset of rows . The code limitation for SQL length IS 1000 characters. Sometimes SQL code is shorter than this limit, no issue. For other usages we can have over 1000000 ch...

Allow replication from Kafka as a source

It would be good to support replications from Kafka as a source to other targets. This idea might sound strange if this were the only replication happening, but this could be part of a "cascading" replication, e.g. if data is replicated from Db2 t...

Enhance CDC z/OS to support Db2 z/OS RBA/LRSN values in full length (New JCF: COMMITSEQ/INTENTSEQ)

We plan to migrate existing SQL Replication CCD tables to CDC Live Audit tables. For that we need to identify the exact values for the source RBA/LRSN log-points to keep the original sequence of DML and to identify the COMMIT scope of the transact...

It would be very useful if the value of the bookmark is translated into a timestamp for the administration of the product.

CDC directly support PostgreSQL partition table

https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/idr/11.4.0?topic=configure-replicating-data-in-partitioned-tables CDC can not directly support PostgreSQL partition table now,This is very inconvenient,Can we change it to just mapping the parent table?

Replace DB Link between Downstream and Prod Database for 19-C TDE through IDR CDC

AS a part of 19-C TDE through IDR CDC, it uses DB Link between Primary and Downstream to call the Dictionary Build back to the Primary. IDR currently utilizes the DB link option to make the process of issuing and retrieving the StartSCN from a new...

Send notification emails over secure TLS smtp protocol

In the current context of digitization, where security is extremely important and where all data transmission protocols, such as smtp, are adapting and incorporating secure communication methods, such as SSL and TLS, it seems essential to incorpor...

Run CDC datastage/transaction stage on z/OS, for example in a container (zCX)

It would reduce operational complexity (manage components on multiple platforms by multiple teams), increase the resilience, availability. We also think it will reduce the cost.

parallel refresh of tables

the refresh of a suscription is done table by table, it is very slow in case of big suscription. the Idea is to do transfert+load many table in parallel.
