Introduction
Our mission is to modernise IBM Z data access and use cases. For that we currently work on two product lines:
- IBM Data Gate is the one-stop solution for building hybrid cloud applications with Z data: a modern approach where you leave your existing data stores and applications on Z untouched, but still get current and transactional consistent copies of that data on the cloud (public or private). Data Gate enables a hybrid architecture where mainframe data stores and applications co-exist with cloud environments. It synchronises IBM Z data to the cloud for modern cloud data architectures such as Apache Iceberg and IBM watsonx.
- IBM Db2 Analytics Accelerator for z/OS is a software appliance that enables and accelerates analytical and machine learning workloads for relational databases. It supports the most demanding customers in analysing and dramatically accelerating their queries in Db2 for z/OS.
