Why teams connect Actian Vector and IBM Db2

Connect IBM Db2 and Actian Vector with one live, two-way sync: operational rows flow into the warehouse, and computed results flow back where systems can read them fast.

Operational databases and analytical warehouses want the same data at different moments. Analysts want IBM Db2's rows in Actian Vector, current and joinable, without a change-data-capture pipeline to maintain. Engineers want the outputs of warehouse work, such as aggregates, features, and segments, available in IBM Db2 where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in IBM Db2 sync into Actian Vector in real time, and result tables in Actian Vector sync back into IBM Db2, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Consolidate data from several source systems into one Vector database for BI dashboards.
  • Load operational data from CRMs and ERPs into Actian Vector tables for analytical queries.
  • Replicate Db2 tables into a cloud warehouse continuously instead of nightly batch extracts.
  • Keep reference and master data aligned between Db2 and newer cloud databases during modernization projects.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Actian Vector sync into IBM Db2, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

Fresh analytics without loading windows

Because changes stream continuously, analysts query current data instead of waiting for last night's load.

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Actian Vector and keep IBM Db2 focused on its operational workload.

What you can sync between Actian Vector and IBM Db2

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Actian Vector objects IBM Db2 objects
Databases Top-level containers targeted by a sync connection. Tables Primary read/write target for syncing rows with SaaS systems or other databases.
Schemas Namespaces used to organize synced tables. Views Read-only projections often used to expose curated slices to a sync.
Tables Columnar tables that serve as sync sources or destinations. Indexes Support fast key lookups on sync match columns.
Views SQL views readable as query-backed sync sources. Stored Procedures Existing business logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths.
Columns Typed columns mapped field-by-field during schema mapping. Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows.
Users and Roles Database principals used to grant the sync connection least-privilege access. Tablespaces Physical storage layout that operators consider when adding synced tables.

Rate limits
No API rate limits in the SaaS sense; throughput depends on cluster resources and query concurrency

IBM Db2

Integration surface
SQL via JDBC/ODBC/CLI drivers; optional REST endpoints in some editions
Authentication
Database credentials, typically backed by OS or LDAP authentication
Change detection
Log-based CDC through IBM's replication tooling where licensed; otherwise polling on timestamp or audit columns
Capabilities
