Why teams connect Azure Synapse Analytics and InterSystems IRIS

Connect InterSystems IRIS and Azure Synapse Analytics 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 InterSystems IRIS's rows in Azure Synapse Analytics, 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 InterSystems IRIS where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in InterSystems IRIS sync into Azure Synapse Analytics in real time, and result tables in Azure Synapse Analytics sync back into InterSystems IRIS, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Sync curated Synapse views into an operational Postgres or Azure SQL database that applications can query cheaply.
  • Consolidate SaaS data alongside lake data so analysts join both through one SQL surface.
  • Consolidate IRIS data with other databases in an analytics warehouse for cross-system reporting
  • Keep reference data consistent between an IRIS-based clinical or financial application and downstream SaaS tools

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Azure Synapse Analytics and keep InterSystems IRIS focused on its operational workload.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from InterSystems IRIS land in Azure Synapse Analytics as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Azure Synapse Analytics sync into InterSystems IRIS, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

What you can sync between Azure Synapse Analytics and InterSystems IRIS

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.

Azure Synapse Analytics objects InterSystems IRIS objects
External tables Tables over files in the data lake, queried through serverless SQL and often read-only in syncs. Views SQL views expose curated slices of data for outbound replication.
Views Curated projections used when downstream tools should not read base tables directly. Schemas Schema organization scopes which tables a sync connection can see.
Schemas Namespaces that separate staging, integration, and presentation layers. Persistent Classes Object-model classes project to tables, so class data is reachable through SQL.
Materialized views Precomputed aggregates that speed reads of frequently synced result sets. Globals The underlying multidimensional storage; typically accessed indirectly via SQL or objects in syncs.
SQL pools Dedicated or serverless compute contexts that determine how and where queries run. Namespaces Namespaces partition databases and determine the connection context for integrations.
Tables (dedicated SQL pool) Distributed warehouse tables that serve as sync destinations for analytics workloads. Stored Procedures Server-side logic callable over SQL supports controlled writes and transformations.
