Why teams connect Braze and IBM Informix

Mirror Braze's data into IBM Informix so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Braze through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in IBM Informix.

Stacksync mirrors Custom Events, Purchases, Segments, Campaigns from Braze into Logical logs, Databases, Tables, Rows in IBM Informix and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Braze, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Export campaign and Canvas engagement data into a warehouse for cross-channel reporting.
  • Sync audience membership computed in the warehouse into Braze segments for targeting.
  • Sync sensor and meter readings stored in Informix TimeSeries structures to analytics platforms.
  • Run a two-way sync between an Informix-backed retail or POS application and a CRM so store data reaches go-to-market teams.

Automate Braze from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in IBM Informix and Stacksync propagates the change into Braze, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Braze arrive as row changes in IBM Informix, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

What you can sync between Braze and IBM Informix

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.

Braze objects IBM Informix objects
Purchases Transaction records logged against profiles for revenue-based targeting. TimeSeries objects Informix's native time-series type, usually exposed to syncs through virtual tables.
Segments Audience definitions read for membership export and campaign targeting. Stored procedures Server-side logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths.
Campaigns Message sends whose metadata and analytics are read for reporting. Logical logs The transaction log that Informix's CDC interface reads committed changes from.
Canvases Multi-step journeys; entry and performance data is read for lifecycle analysis. Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection.
Subscription Groups Channel-level opt-in states synced with consent records in other systems. Tables Relational tables mapped directly to sync targets.
Content Blocks Reusable message content referenced across campaigns. Rows The unit of read and write, keyed by primary key.

How the Braze and IBM Informix connectors work

Braze

Integration surface
REST API
Authentication
REST API keys scoped to specific endpoints, issued per workspace
Change detection
Braze Currents streams engagement events outward; profile reads otherwise rely on export endpoints and polling
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Endpoints have per-endpoint rate limits documented by Braze; batch endpoints accept multiple users per request

IBM Informix

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC drivers; DRDA connectivity is also supported
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Informix's Change Data Capture API reading committed changes from logical logs; polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Bounded by server resources and session limits rather than an API quota.
