Extraction Modes

Extraction Modes

You can extract the change data that PowerExchange captured in near real time or as a batch process.
You indicate the extraction mode by setting the PowerCenter connection type and certain PowerExchange CDC configuration parameters. Some extraction modes are available only if you use PowerExchange Condense or the PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows.
Based on your extraction requirements, use one of the following extractions modes:
Real-time extraction mode
Continuously extracts change data in near real time from the change stream. Extraction processing continues until the CDC session stops or is interrupted.
To implement this mode, configure a PWX CDC Real Time application connection in PowerCenter for your data source type.
Batch extraction mode
Extracts change data from PowerExchange Condense condense files on IBM i (i5/OS) or z/OS, or from PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows log files. Data is extracted only from the files that are closed at the time the CDC session runs. The CDC session ends after it completes processing the files.
To implement this mode, configure the following items:
  • In the PowerExchange Navigator, set the
    Condense
    option to
    Part
    or
    Full
    in the capture registrations.
  • In PowerCenter, configure a PWX CDC Change application connection for your data source type.
Continuous extraction mode.
Continuously extracts change data from open and closed PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows log files in near real time.
For data sources on IBM i (i5/OS) or z/OS, this extraction mode is available only if you log data to a remote PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows on another system.
To implement this mode, configure the following items:
  • In the PowerExchange Navigator, set the
    Condense
    option to
    Part
    in the capture registrations.
  • In PowerCenter, configure a PWX CDC Real Time application connection for your data source type.
  • Configure a CAPX CAPI_CONNECTION statement in the DBMOVER configuration file.
  • If you remote logging of data from z/OS or i5/OS data sources to a PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows, configure the remote PowerExchange Logger to log change data from the source system.
