Developed DB2i SQL dialect support for the Debezium repository, enabling seamless integration with IBM i environments. The work involved designing the Db2iDatabaseDialect and a corresponding provider, as well as enhancing SQL generation logic for MERGE statements to accommodate DB2i-specific requirements. Comprehensive unit tests were implemented and existing test suites were updated to ensure robust coverage of new scenarios. The Maven build process was updated to include the jt400 dependency, supporting DB2i runtime needs. Documentation was expanded to outline DB2i testing limitations and approaches. This effort broadened Debezium’s database compatibility, leveraging Java, SQL, and database development expertise.
