IDS and Kafka
Eric Vercelletto asked whether anyone had connected Informix to Apache Kafka. Peter Inzana pointed to IBM InfoSphere Data Replication CDC, which can replicate from Informix to Kafka. Gerd Kaluzinski offered tips from several installs, saying a Confluent target should be easy. Blair Ellis asked for details, wanting to avoid big licensing fees. No further answer in the thread.

Hi Folks, an interesting question today: does anyone in the community have experience in connecting IDS with Apache Kafka ? If yes, can you please share your experience. Thanks a lot and have a great day Eric ------------------------------ [eric] [Vercelletto] [] [Founder] [kandooerp.org] [Pont l'Abbé] [France] [+33 626 52 50 68] Disclaimer: My own opinions are my own opinions and do not reflect on the IIUG, nor any other organization with which I am associated either explicitly, implicitly, or by inference.

Hi Eric, please note that our IBM InfoSphere Data Replication offerings provide/support CDC (Change Data Capture) technology that can replicate from IDS sources to Kafka targets. Our CDC capture agents employ log-based capture agents for very low impact on source systems, as well as optimized apply agents for feeding many targets (including Kafka, Hadoop, RDBMS's, DataStage, Cloud, etc.), all with transactional integrity. Please see: https://www.ibm.com/analytics/data-replication ------------------------------ PETER Inzana ------------------------------
Hello Eric, if you need Tipps&Tricks for the InfoSphere CDC Replication from INFORMIX to Kafka just contact me. I installed this several times and a test system is just next to me where I installed this replication. I the target is handling with Confluent, then the install should be no problem. ------------------------------ Gerd Kaluzinski ------------------------------
Hello Gerd - I'm looking to make some INFORMIX to Kafka replication.. would love to get some more details about how you set it up - trying to avoid big monthly licensing fees.. not sure whats possible. IS this the best place to contact you?? ------------------------------ BLAIR ELLIS ------------------------------
