This presentation is all about data replication from a transactional system to operational data store or data mart for real time reporting purposes with limited impact to transactional workload. It will provide insight into the replication architecture for SQL Replication, Q Replication, and Change Data Capture. It explains the business driver behind the data replication and challenges in replicating the data in locally or geographically dispersed locations. We will also provide pointers to understand the replication workload statistics and the SLA requirements to propose a precise replication strategy.

Searching for "pivot" in Google returns lots of EXCEL information, but data transformations can be done in Db2 with SQL as well (without moving your data into Excel and possibly back). SQL is a very powerful and mighty programming language and, in this session, it is all about transposing data--from row to column, column to row, denormalizing it into a single column, and reversing it again. Why that? Because we can. No, seriously, this is frequently needed for data preparation in Data Warehouse environments and is very often asked in forums like Stackoverflow, etc. And you even need it if you dig into the Db2 catalog. So let's look into it.
