Why teams connect Google Cloud SQL and IBM AS/400

Keep Google Cloud SQL and IBM AS/400 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 Google Cloud SQL and IBM AS/400 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

  • Keep an internal admin application backed by Cloud SQL consistent with an ERP or billing system.
  • Migrate from a self-managed database by syncing Cloud SQL and the legacy system during cutover.
  • Feed shipment and invoice data from the AS/400 into logistics and finance tools in near real time.
  • Expose AS/400 order, inventory, and item master data to modern SaaS tools without rewriting green-screen applications.

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.

Regional or environment copies

Mirror selected tables to another region or environment continuously, filtered to just the rows that should travel.

What you can sync between Google Cloud SQL and IBM AS/400

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.

Google Cloud SQL objects IBM AS/400 objects
Transaction logs MySQL binlog or PostgreSQL WAL, the source for log-based change capture. Members Sub-partitions of files in legacy applications, flattened or selected during syncs.
Instances The managed MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server server a sync connects to. Rows / records The unit of read and write, accessed via SQL or record-level access.
Databases Scope the tables included in a sync configuration. Journals and journal receivers The change log that enables log-based CDC on journaled files.
Schemas Namespace tables in PostgreSQL and SQL Server instances. Data queues Program-to-program messaging objects sometimes used to hand events off to integrations.
Tables Mapped directly to sync targets; schema changes can be propagated. Libraries The schema-equivalent containers that scope which files a sync reads.
Rows Read and written by primary key during each sync cycle. Physical files (tables) The Db2 for i tables mapped directly to sync targets.
