Workspace Data Replication: Change Data Capture

Created by Guest

Created on Nov 20, 2023

Improve the target mapping columns types for Kafka equivalent from sources db2z and db2i

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

The setting presently in the IDR replication from DB2z and DB2i to for target Kafka:

KC for the supported type : https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/idr/11.4.0?topic=console-supported-column-mappings#supportedtablemappings__title__7

Source type column DB2z and DB2i

Target type column of schema registry

From DECIMAL (7,2) to string

From TIMESTAMP(26) to string

From DATE to string

From DECIMAL (9,0) to int

Its will be very useful to change this matching to source type column in the target of schema registry in kafka. According to this table:

Source type column DB2z and DB2i

Target type column of schema registry

From DECIMAL (7,2) to DECIMAL (7,2)

From TIMESTAMP(26) to TIMESTAMP(26)

From DATE to DATE

From DECIMAL (9,0) to DECIMAL (9,0)

I hope this improvement be to possibiliy to do.

In other open source product, like debezium, it is possible.
