Modernizing the Data That Still Matters: CData Sync Expands CDC Support Across IBM DB2
Blog post from CData
CData Sync has added change data capture support for IBM DB2 iSeries (AS400), extending its existing CDC capabilities for DB2 on z/OS and Linux, Unix, and Windows to cover the full IBM DB2 family. The hybrid replication platform is positioned as a way for organizations to move data securely and near real time from long-standing on-premises IBM systems into cloud and analytics destinations such as Databricks, Snowflake, Microsoft Fabric, and SQL Server without disruptive migrations. Its iSeries connector uses IBM i’s native journal records to capture inserts, updates, and deletes, avoiding triggers and full-table scans while aiming to preserve transactional accuracy, limit production impact, and maintain continuity through restarts or outages. CData argues that this support helps enterprises retain the operational value and historical context of IBM databases used in sectors such as banking, manufacturing, logistics, government, and telecommunications while making their data more accessible for reporting, analytics, AI, and machine learning initiatives.
