[Podcast] Fastest DB2 Test Data Subsetting: From 300M rows production to 100,000 rows RI test data in <2 minutes
All Baseline Posts, Application Testing, Podcasts
One of our TestBase customers, a very large Federal Agency, recently broke what we think must be a world record for fastest RI DB2 test data extraction and subsetting live DB2 production data. Listen to the 6-minute podcast below to learn how this company was able to:
- Extract a 100,000 row subset of Referentially Intact (RI) DB2 data (to be used for testing) from a 300M+ row database of live customer production data in UNDER 2 Minutes
- Took advantage of several clever DB2 features to help facilitate this extremely fast transfer, including
- Multi-Row Fetch
- Multi-Row Inserts
- Global Temporary Tables
- Key Value Assignments

Not mentioned in the audio above, the same customer was also able to create a similar extract of 25M rows of RI DB2 test data from the same live production database in under 40 minutes – quite an impressive feat.
