What products are in the DataCat Catalyst Suite?

The suite includes DB2 Catalyst for DB2 to PostgreSQL modernization, Oracle Catalyst for Oracle source readiness and DDL evidence, and Sync Control for provider-governed replication and cutover evidence.

Does DataCat support Oracle to PostgreSQL migration?

Oracle Catalyst supports the source-readiness lane: Oracle source profiles, catalog inventory, DBMS_METADATA DDL evidence, readiness reporting, and conversion-risk triage. It does not claim native Oracle CDC or full automated PL/SQL parity.

How does DataCat compare to Ora2Pg, AWS DMS Schema Conversion, and Ispirer?

Those tools can be direct converters or migration utilities. DataCat focuses on the governed project record around the migration: source posture, retained artifacts, validation evidence, operator workflow, and application-team handoff.

What is the current DB2 Catalyst scope?

DB2 Catalyst is the deepest current lane, covering DB2 source onboarding, schema and data movement, validation evidence, cutover posture, and application handoff for PostgreSQL programs.

Is DataCat self-hosted?

Yes. DataCat is designed for customer-hosted deployment so source profiles, DDL artifacts, validation evidence, and project records stay inside the buyer's infrastructure boundary.

Where DataCat Fits in the Stack

Architecture note: DataCat sits between IBM source estates, the target cloud or runtime, and the downstream application team. It owns the database-modernization record: source interpretation, governed migration execution, validation evidence, and application-team handoff.

Program delivery boundary

DataCat does not absorb the broader implementation lane. When a modernization program expands into platform, workflow, identity, or application delivery, keep that engineering responsibility explicit rather than implying it inside the migration suite.
