Db2 for z/OS
Db2 for z/OS is a relational database management system that runs on the IBM® zSystems™ platform.
You can read from Db2 for z/OS versions 12 and 13 as follows, and write to any target supported by Striim that can handle WAEvent input (see Writers overview). Typically, you will set up data pipelines that read from Db2 for z/OS in two phases—initial load, followed by continuous replication—as explained in this concept article on Pipelines.
For initial load, you can use Database Reader to create a point-in-time copy of the existing source Db2 for z/OS dataset at the target.
After the initial load has completed, you can start continuous replication by continuously reading the new data created in the same source Db2 dataset after the initial load was started, and then writing this new source data to the target.
For real-time continuous replication of new source data using CDC, you can use Striim Connect as described in Db2 for z/OS CDC.
If you choose not to enable CDC on the source database, you can use Incremental Batch Reader to read the new source data at regular intervals, allowing for continuous updates in near real-time. Incremental Batch Reader differs from the Striim Connect approach in several ways, including not capturing DELETE operations at the source (see the discussion in Incremental Batch Reader about INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE operations).
Striim UI wizards
You can read from Db2 for z/OS using an Initial Load Only wizard. No wizard is available for creating CDC applications.
