Why teams connect Dynamo DB and InterSystems IRIS

Keep Dynamo DB and InterSystems IRIS synchronized in real time, across engines, regions, or services, in one or both directions.

Two databases that must agree is one of the oldest problems in engineering: different engines for different workloads, separate services with overlapping reference data, a migration in flight, or regional instances that share a subset of records. Hand-rolled replication across systems means change capture, conflict handling, and type mapping, all built and maintained by your team.

Stacksync syncs tables or collections between Dynamo DB and InterSystems IRIS continuously and bi-directionally, translating types between the two engines and resolving conflicts by rules you configure. Rows written on either side appear on the other within seconds.

Common use cases

  • Consolidate multi-region Global Tables data into a single reporting store.
  • Replace ad-hoc export scripts with continuous sync driven by DynamoDB Streams.
  • 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

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both Dynamo DB and InterSystems IRIS, so each workload runs on the engine that suits it.

Migration with zero-downtime cutover

When one database is replacing the other, sync both directions during the transition and switch traffic when ready, without a freeze window.

Shared reference data between services

Services that own separate databases stay consistent on the records they share, without a custom replication layer.

What you can sync between Dynamo DB 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.

Dynamo DB objects InterSystems IRIS objects
Items Schemaless records keyed by partition (and optional sort) key, mapped to rows or SaaS objects in syncs. Globals The underlying multidimensional storage; typically accessed indirectly via SQL or objects in syncs.
Attributes Per-item fields, including nested maps and lists, flattened or mapped during sync. Namespaces Namespaces partition databases and determine the connection context for integrations.
Partition and Sort Keys The primary key pair used as the match key for bi-directional sync. Stored Procedures Server-side logic callable over SQL supports controlled writes and transformations.
Global Secondary Indexes Alternate access paths used when sync queries filter on non-key attributes. Tables Relational projections of stored data are the primary read/write surface for SQL-based syncs.
DynamoDB Streams Ordered item-level change records consumed for incremental sync. Views SQL views expose curated slices of data for outbound replication.
Global Tables Multi-region replicas relevant when syncs must read from a specific region. Schemas Schema organization scopes which tables a sync connection can see.
