Use Data Replication to integrate and synchronize data. Data Replication provides near-real-time data delivery with low impact to sources.

Improve business insight
Move data in near real time to the environment where you perform analytics or event processing so you can quickly react to changes and critical business events.
Ensure business continuity
Synchronize data stores to support continuous operations in the event of planned and unplanned outages.

To set up Data Replication in Cloud Pak for Data as a Service, you create a shared project and then define your connections to sources and targets. Build replication mappings by selecting the schemas and tables that you want to replicate.

When the mappings are done, you can start replication. The data is first synchronized between the source and target and then continuously updated automatically whenever changes are detected to the source tables. The changes are delivered in near real time to the target. Data Replication will run continuously unless you pause or stop it.

You can replicate data to and from these supported data sources and targets.
