Keep Your Operational Database Lean: Manage Historical Data with Jumpmind SymmetricDS and Exasol
In today’s fast-paced business environment, your operational database needs to be agile—handling day-to-day transactions without the burden of historical data. That’s where the Jumpmind SymmetricDS connector for Exasol steps in. This integration leverages high-performance change data capture (CDC) to offload historical data live—no batch processing required—so your operational systems remain fast, while Exasol powers near-real-time analytics.
The Challenge: Balancing Speed and Historical Insight
Operational databases often face the dual challenge of managing live transactions while accumulating years of historical data. Over time, this buildup can bog down your systems, slowing down daily operations. With periodic cleanups, you can maintain a lean operational environment, but then you risk losing the broader data history needed for deep analytics.
