Why teams connect Anaplan and IBM Db2

Work with Anaplan's financial data straight from IBM Db2: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Processes, Cell Data, Models, Modules from Anaplan into Stored Procedures, Sequences, Tablespaces, Databases in IBM Db2 and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against IBM Db2, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Anaplan with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • Push approved plan and target numbers from Anaplan back to the CRM or compensation systems.
  • Keep dimension lists (products, cost centers, territories) aligned with master data systems of record.
  • Keep reference and master data aligned between Db2 and newer cloud databases during modernization projects.
  • Feed changes captured from Db2 logs into downstream event pipelines.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in IBM Db2 propagate into Anaplan, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Anaplan appear in IBM Db2 as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Anaplan live in IBM Db2 as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

What you can sync between Anaplan 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.

Anaplan objects IBM Db2 objects
Lists Dimension members (accounts, products, cost centers) synced from master data systems. Databases The connection target; each database holds the schemas a sync addresses.
List Items Individual dimension members created or updated from external systems of record. Schemas Namespaces separating synced data from application and system objects.
Versions Scenario dimensions (actual, budget, forecast) that scope which slice a sync reads or writes. Tables Primary read/write target for syncing rows with SaaS systems or other databases.
Import and Export Actions Predefined data-movement definitions the Bulk API executes. Views Read-only projections often used to expose curated slices to a sync.
Processes Ordered bundles of actions run as a unit during scheduled syncs. Indexes Support fast key lookups on sync match columns.
Cell Data Individual intersections readable and writable through the transactional API. Stored Procedures Existing business logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths.

How the Anaplan and IBM Db2 connectors work

Anaplan

Integration surface
REST APIs: a Bulk API that runs predefined import/export actions and a transactional API for model metadata and cell data
Authentication
Token-based sessions obtained via basic authentication, CA certificates, or OAuth 2.0 through Anaplan's authentication service
Change detection
Polling and scheduled export actions; the platform does not expose change events
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits; large data movements are designed to run through bulk actions

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
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by instance resources and workload management settings
