Data Pipeline/Data Integration Enhancements

• Out of the box integration logic and generic data pipelines dramatically shortens time-to-market for new digital services and minimizes service downtime.

  • IBM Infosphere Data Replication (IIDR) is available as an out-of-the-box connector engine for data pipelines.

  • Data pipeline support is enhanced to include DB2 on IBM z/OS mainframe.

  • Generic declarative data loader can load any data based on configuration per data source.

  • Ensure business continuity while changing the data schema (adding tables) and reloading data.

Enhanced Support for Kubernetes

• Zoned Anti-Affinity ensures that the primary and backup partitions will not run in the same zone.

• In Kubernetes, namespaces provides a mechanism for isolating groups of resources within a single cluster. Names of resources need to be unique within a namespace, but not across namespaces. We now support deploying to a namespace, as opposed to deploying to the default namespace.
