Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for performing conflict analysis of replicated changes among nodes in a network A first node and a second node include a first instance and second instance of a data set, respectively. The second node receives a first transaction replicated from the first node, applied to the first instance of the data set. The second node determines a conflict that would occur between the replicated first transaction and a second transaction applied to the second instance of the data set. A conflict policy is applied at the second node to perform a first action in response to determining the conflict. The conflict policy is applied to the first node to perform a second action at the first node to handle the conflict when the first node receives a replication of the second transaction to the second instance of the data set.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for replicating non-supported data types using an existing replication format supported by an existing replication system. Responsive to detecting an application writing data to a local storage that is to be replicated to the secondary site, the input/output (I/O) operation being performed by the application is intercepted. Data of the I/O operation in a non-supported format is converted to a format supported by the existing replication system. A replication log record is generated for the data in the format supported by the existing replication system. The data described by the replication log record for the data is then stored in a storage device at the secondary site.

Abstract: In dynamic multi-session management, a communication layer monitors network indicators during sending of application messages over a session established between sender and receiver nodes. Based on the network indicators, the communication layer determines that the session has insufficient bandwidth. In response, at least one session is added between sender and receiver nodes, where a plurality of parallel sessions is established between sender and receiver nodes. The application messages are sent over the plurality of sessions. The communication layer continues to monitor the network indicators, and when the plurality of sessions is determined to have insufficient bandwidth, adds at least one more session between sender and receiver nodes. The communication layer further determines, based on the network indicators, whether the plurality of sessions have excess bandwidth If so, one or more sessions are removed.

Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for replicating a source data set to a target data store. A point-in-time copy of the source data set is generated having a data structure identifying the data in the source data set as of a point-in-time. A restore operation is initiated to copy the source data set represented by the point-in-time copy to a restored copy of the source data set consistent with the source data set. The source data set records are transferred from the restored copy to the target data store in the target storage.

Abstract: Provided are techniques for workload discovery using real-time analysis of input streams. For a meta workload, changes to data objects made by change operations that are in a replication change stream are stored into a recovery log. Using an analytics engine, one of the recovery log and the replication change stream are analyzed to identify associations between the data objects based on usage and access patterns. The associations are used to identify sub-workloads of the meta workload that form consistency groups for replication.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided in a data processing system for executing queries referencing data stored in a unified data layer. A relational engine executing on the data processing system receives a structured query language (SQL) query from a client. A query processor executing on the data processing system accesses integrated data sources including a unified data layer (UDL) data source storing UDL topic files via a data virtualization layer to form query results. The data virtualization layer projects the UDL topic files into relational form. The relational engine returns the query results to the client.
