IBM Data Gate on Cloud offers IBM Z customers a modern hybrid cloud approach for accessing data originating in Db2 for z/OS. Through a built-in integrated synchronization protocol, Db2 for z/OS data can be replicated to Db2 Warehouse on Cloud for direct access, or infused into the watsonx.data lakehouse through Db2 connectors for Presto.

Outcomes:

• Access Db2 for z/OS data in Db2 Warehouse on Cloud directly to support analytics and machine learning/AI model development
• Reduce the cost, effort and time associated with building do-it-yourself extract, transform, and load approaches
• Provides faster performance and reduces resource impact associated with traditional data replication technologies
