RE: moving DB2 data to a SQL Server

Yes,

Pro Data, (www.dodbu.com) the people that make and sell
DBU also sell RDB Connect, which we use here, and I think
there are others.

There are several free utilities, starting with Scott Klement's service
program.

IMHO, the very best of the free is Ardgate, available on SourceForge.net

ArdGate integrates very nicely with IBM i, to the point you can read/write
to the remote database using strsql.

In addition, about seven-eight years ago I defined a "linked database"
directly from MS SQL Server to
DB2 on what was then an iSeries to directly query the data I needed.
I would think such a link is still as easy as it was then.

Use scott's jdbc service program to update directly. Map an ifs folder
and generate text files for large updates.

HI We are looking at a new help desk software product and for
reporting purpose we would like to access our Manufacturing system
data which is AS/400.
We are considering ways of sending the data over to the SQL
Server.One idea we have is to use SSIS.

Can you speak of your experience using either SSIS or other way to
make this data available onto the SQL Server; both real time or
batch mode. I do think we will need fairly real time, but all
options are on the table.
