Webinar: Solution: Rocket Data Virtualization

Unlocking the mainframe real-time data with Rocket DataEdge

Modernizing the mainframe isn’t just about new apps; it’s about real-time, cost-efficient access to core data. Rocket DataEdge -including Rocket Data Virtualization (RDV) and Rocket Data Replicate & Sync- lets you expose critical data without moving it, speed analytics, and offload compute to zIIP to optimize CPU. You integrate the mainframe with cloud and modern analytics without rip-and-replace.

What it is and why it matters

• Rocket Data Virtualization (RDV): builds virtual views across z/OS and other sources, delivering real-time access without bulk replication, efficiently using CPU (via zIIP).
• Rocket Data Replicate & Sync: captures and syncs changes from Db2/VSAM to on-prem and cloud (e.g., Kafka, MySQL, AWS/Azure services) in real time and bidirectionally.

Key benefits

• Real-time for microservices, BI, and digital experiences without copying sensitive datasets.
• Lower cost per transaction: less ETL, more zIIP offload.
• Reduced risk and complexity: on-platform security and data governance.
• Cloud/analytics integration with continuous sync to multiple targets.

High-value use cases

• APIs and digital channels: serve core data with low latency.
• Analytics & AI: enable lakes/lakehouses without massive extractions.
• Migrations & hybrid: capture once, apply to many targets (testing, reporting, cloud workloads).

Metrics to track

• % CPU offloaded to zIIP and MIPS saved.
• Query latency and sync time.
• Incidents from data movement vs. virtualized access.
