Extend your IMS data to the rest of the enterprise

• Synchronize mission-critical IMS data with InfoSphere Classic Change Data Capture for z/OS

� Extension of InfoSphere Change Data Capture to support replication from IMS

� Efficient capture & delivery of IMS data to local or remote DBMS, message queues, flat files, and ETL tools

� Optimize processor utilization by only sending data changes which eliminates massive batch movements

� Extend application availability by shortening batch windows by streaming changes as they occur

� Deliver up-to-date data for business analytics by distributing data across multiple systems or between central and satellite systems

• Increase the availability of IMS data with InfoSphere IMS Replication for z/OS

� Efficient capture & delivery of IMS data to a local or remote IMS copy

� Synchronize data centres for continuous availability, business continuity, disaster recovery

� When combined with IBM monitoring and workload management software, provides a hot standby site at unlimited distances with a recovery time in seconds to minutes
