Modern Data Management for Hybrid and Multi-Cloud Architectures

What this post added

This post details the integration of tcVISION, a mainframe data connector, with Confluent Platform/Cloud. It highlights the use of tcVISION for real-time synchronization of data from mainframe sources (IBM DB2 z/OS, DB2 z/VSE, VSAM, IMS/DB, CA IDMS, CA DATACOM, Software AG ADABAS) to Confluent, enabling data movement to target platforms on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. The architecture described uses Confluent as a central data hub for aggregating data from multiple sources into Kafka topics, facilitating hybrid and multicloud data management and avoiding complex point-to-point integrations. It also mentions the use of Confluent for overseeing data pipelines and managing policy and governance.
