Why teams connect Customer.io and InterSystems IRIS

Mirror Customer.io's data into InterSystems IRIS 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 Customer.io 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 InterSystems IRIS.

Stacksync mirrors Newsletters, People, Objects, Events from Customer.io into Stored Procedures, Tables, Views, Schemas in InterSystems IRIS 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 Customer.io, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Sync account-level objects and their person relationships for B2B messaging keyed to company attributes.
  • Sync product usage and billing attributes from Postgres onto Customer.io people so lifecycle campaigns trigger on real product behavior.
  • Replicate IRIS tables to Postgres so application teams can build against a familiar database
  • Sync operational tables in IRIS bi-directionally with a CRM so business teams work on IRIS-backed data without SQL access

Read Customer.io with a query

Records from Customer.io are ordinary rows in InterSystems IRIS; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Customer.io from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in InterSystems IRIS and Stacksync propagates the change into Customer.io, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Customer.io arrive as row changes in InterSystems IRIS, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between Customer.io 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.

Customer.io objects InterSystems IRIS objects
People Profiles with attributes, matched on identifiers like id or email; the main write target of data syncs. Stored Procedures Server-side logic callable over SQL supports controlled writes and transformations.
Objects Non-person entities such as accounts or companies, related to people for account-level messaging. Tables Relational projections of stored data are the primary read/write surface for SQL-based syncs.
Events Behavioral events sent via the Track API that trigger campaigns. Views SQL views expose curated slices of data for outbound replication.
Segments Attribute- or event-based groups; data syncs feed the attributes segments evaluate. Schemas Schema organization scopes which tables a sync connection can see.
Campaigns Automated workflows whose membership and metrics can be read via the App API. Persistent Classes Object-model classes project to tables, so class data is reachable through SQL.
Broadcasts One-off sends to segments or audiences, triggerable via API. Globals The underlying multidimensional storage; typically accessed indirectly via SQL or objects in syncs.

How the Customer.io and InterSystems IRIS connectors work

Customer.io

Integration surface
REST APIs split by purpose: Track API for data ingestion, App API for campaigns, people lookups, and messages
Authentication
Basic auth with site ID and API key for the Track API; bearer token for the App API
Change detection
Reporting webhooks push message and delivery events; person attribute changes are not streamed and require source-side detection
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Subject to per-API rate limits documented by Customer.io

InterSystems IRIS

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC, plus object and REST access layers
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Polling (timestamp or query-based); no standard webhook surface
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Constrained by database resources rather than published API rate limits
