"For TUI Musement, Airbyte cut development time in half and enabled dynamic customer experiences."
Chase Zieman
“Airbyte helped us accelerate our progress by years, compared to our competitors. We don’t need to worry about connectors and focus on creating value for our users instead of building infrastructure. That’s priceless. The time and energy saved allows us to disrupt and grow faster.”
Rupak Patel
"With Airbyte, we could just push a few buttons, allow API access, and bring all the data into Google BigQuery. By blending all the different marketing data sources, we can gain valuable insights."
Begin by extracting the necessary data from your IBM Db2 database. You can achieve this by using SQL queries within a Db2 command line interface or a Db2 database management tool. Export the data into a CSV file, which can be easily manipulated and uploaded later.
Once the data is extracted, ensure that the CSV file is saved on your local machine. Name the file appropriately to reflect its contents, making it easy to identify when you're uploading it to Google Sheets.
Log in to your Google account and open Google Sheets. You can create a new sheet or choose an existing one where you wish to import the Db2 data. Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to edit the Google Sheets document.
Before importing, decide on the structure of your Google Sheet. You may want to label the columns in advance to match the data fields from your CSV file. This will help in organizing the data once it's imported.
In Google Sheets, navigate to "File" > "Import". Choose the "Upload" option and select the CSV file from your local machine. Follow the prompts to import the data, ensuring you select the appropriate options such as "Replace current sheet" or "Append to current sheet", depending on your needs.
After the import, take time to format and clean your data as needed. Check for any discrepancies or formatting issues that may have arisen during the import process. You can adjust column widths, apply filters, and use Google Sheets' built-in functions to organize your data better.
To streamline future data imports, consider writing a Google Apps Script. This script can automate the process by fetching the latest CSV file from a specific location (like Google Drive) and importing it into your Google Sheet. This will require some JavaScript programming, but once set up, it can save significant time and effort.
By following these steps, you can effectively move data from IBM Db2 to Google Sheets without relying on third-party connectors or integrations.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.
Specializing in the development and maintenance of Android, iOS, and Web applications, DB2’s AI technology offers fast insights, flexible data management, and secure data movement to businesses globally through its IBM Cloud Pak for Data platform. Companies rely on DB2’s AI-powered insights and secure platform and save money with its multimodal capability, which eliminates the need for unnecessary replication and migration of data. Additionally, DB2 is convenient and will run on any cloud vendor.
IBM Db2 provides access to a wide range of data types, including:
1. Relational data: This includes tables, views, and indexes that are organized in a relational database management system (RDBMS).
2. Non-relational data: This includes data that is not organized in a traditional RDBMS, such as NoSQL databases, JSON documents, and XML files.
3. Time-series data: This includes data that is collected over time and is typically used for analysis and forecasting, such as sensor data, financial data, and weather data.
4. Geospatial data: This includes data that is related to geographic locations, such as maps, satellite imagery, and GPS coordinates.
5. Graph data: This includes data that is organized in a graph structure, such as social networks, recommendation engines, and knowledge graphs.
6. Machine learning data: This includes data that is used to train machine learning models, such as labeled datasets, feature vectors, and model parameters.
Overall, IBM Db2's API provides access to a diverse range of data types, making it a powerful tool for data management and analysis.
What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
