Replicate Sybase IQ data to disparate databases with a single configuration.
Always-on applications rely on automatic failover capabilities and real-time access to data. CData Sync for Sybase IQ integrates live Sybase IQ data into your mirrored databases, always-on cloud databases, and other databases such as your reporting server: Automatically synchronize with remote Sybase IQ data from Windows or any machine running Java.
You can use Sync's command-line interface (CLI) to easily control almost all aspects of the replication. You can use the CLI to replicate Sybase IQ data to one or many databases without any need to change your configuration.
Connect to Sybase IQ Data
You can save connection strings and other settings like email notifications in XML configuration files.
The following example shows how to replicate to SQLite.
Windows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<CDataSync><DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType>
<DatabaseProvider>System.Data.SQLite</DatabaseProvider>
<ConnectionString>User=myuser;Password=mypassword;Server=localhost;Database=Northwind</ConnectionString>
<ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll>
<NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName>
<DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString>
<TaskSchedulerStartTime>09:51</TaskSchedulerStartTime>
<TaskSchedulerInterval>Never</TaskSchedulerInterval>
</CDataSync>
Java
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<CDataSync><DatabaseType>SQLite</DatabaseType><DatabaseProvider>org.sqlite.JDBC</DatabaseProvider>
<ConnectionString>User=myuser;Password=mypassword;Server=localhost;Database=Northwind</ConnectionString>
<ReplicateAll>False</ReplicateAll>
<NotificationUserName></NotificationUserName>
<DatabaseConnectionString>Data Source=C:\my.db</DatabaseConnectionString>
</CDataSync>
To connect to SybaseIQ, set User, Password, Server and Database properties. To secure connections with TLS/SSL, set UseSSL to TRUE.
Configure Replication Queries
Sync enables you to control replication with standard SQL. The REPLICATE statement is a high-level command that caches and maintains a table in your database. You can define any SELECT query supported by the Sybase IQ API. The statement below caches and incrementally updates a table of Sybase IQ data:
REPLICATE Products;
You can specify a file containing the replication queries. This enables you to use the same replication queries to replicate to several databases.
Run Sync
After you have configured the connection strings and replication queries, you can run Sync with the following command-line options:
Windows
SybaseIQSync.exe -g MySQLiteConfig.xml -f SybaseIQSync.sql
Java
java -Xbootclasspath/p:c:\sqlitejdbc.jar -jar SybaseIQSync.jar -g MySQLiteConfig.xml -f SybaseIQSync.sql
