Our Company have a large application stored on a DB2 database. Periodically, we do incremental updates to the database. There are many other applications that read this database, such as the Company's legacy system called C.I.S.

Can MQ Series Publish and Subscribe feature be used to capture all of the most recent DB2 table updates nightly or for incremental updates, and then publish those updates so that the subscribers (other applications) who need those updates can access them and apply them to their application system.

To rephrase the question: Can MQ Series Publish and Subscribe feature be used to capture and publish the updates of a large DB2 database (nightly or periodically) and then make those changes available or accessible to multiple subscribers within the company? Is this possible or should we look at another tool of MQ Series?

Thanks

Pub/Sub is designed for one to many message distribution.

So, yes, if your application that does the update then turns around and publishes the update information, any application that is interested in the updates can subscribe and receive them.

But there's nothing built into any of the Pub/Sub products that will automatically notice that your table has been updated and publish the information. You'll have to either buy an adapter that knows how to do this, or write a program that will do this.

There is a feature in DB2 that will talk to MQ which 'might' be usable to publish the messages whenever a row is added/changed/deleted, or from within a stored procedure.

Cheers,
