Loading data from your local system

You can load data in a delimited format file (CSV or TXT) from your local system into IBM® Db2® Warehouse on Cloud. For files less than 500 MB in size, simply drag and drop them onto the Load page in the Db2 Warehouse on Cloud web console.

When loading data through the web console, Db2 Warehouse on Cloud autodetects and infers column types for your file. You can also configure delimiters and date/time formats for your data.

If you want to load larger CSV files on the gigabyte or terabyte scale into Db2 Warehouse on Cloud on IBM Cloud, we recommend using IBM Lift CLI, a free ground-to-cloud data migration tool.
