Replicating data between different remote databases in realtime

Hi,

I have two enterprise applications. The existing app connects to an existing schema. This schema is a linear design. We have a new object-oriented application connected to a relational model designed to reflect our object model, which is new. Both apps will, for now, continue reading and updating there relevant db's. These apps both do the same thing from a users perspective but in different ways.
We need each db to provide a single view of all the data captured by each app by replicating data between each db. We can't use triggers as this will create an infinite loop (16 iterations). Has anyone encountered this problem and if so what was the solution?
 
Rory,

I have used Data Propogator Relational (DPROPR) extensively for similar situations. Used properly it is very nearly real time.

There is already some good info on DPROPR within this forum, if you use the search facility. Post again if you don't find what you're looking for.

Cheers
Greg
 
Greg,

Thanks for that but I can only find one post about disaster recovery for DPROPR. Could you point me to a more specific thread please.

Also, is this the only way that this can be done - by using another application?
 
Rory,

The only way I know is using some of the db2 add ons. Take a look at the following link and see if anything in there does the trick for you.


I was unable to find anything regards the DPROPR family in the forum to. It must have been archived. Found the following on google


everything else seems to have disappeared into the ether.


Thanks
Greg
 
Thanks Greg for your help. I don't think I will be able to find a simple solution, but DRDA seems like something I should investigate
