Why teams connect Greenplum and IBM AS/400

Connect IBM AS/400 and Greenplum 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 IBM AS/400's rows in Greenplum, 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 IBM AS/400 where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in IBM AS/400 sync into Greenplum in real time, and result tables in Greenplum sync back into IBM AS/400, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Consolidate data from multiple source systems into partitioned Greenplum fact tables.
  • Load operational data from CRMs, ERPs, and production databases into Greenplum for MPP analytics.
  • 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.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from IBM AS/400 land in Greenplum as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Greenplum sync into IBM AS/400, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

Fresh analytics without loading windows

Because changes stream continuously, analysts query current data instead of waiting for last night's load.

What you can sync between Greenplum 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.

Greenplum objects IBM AS/400 objects
Views Read-only projections used to shape data before syncing it out. Logical files (views) Indexed or filtered views over physical files, usable as read sources.
External tables Reference external files for bulk load paths alongside row-level syncs. Members Sub-partitions of files in legacy applications, flattened or selected during syncs.
Rows Read and written by key; distribution keys determine where rows live. Rows / records The unit of read and write, accessed via SQL or record-level access.
Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Journals and journal receivers The change log that enables log-based CDC on journaled files.
Schemas Namespace tables and control which objects a sync can see. Data queues Program-to-program messaging objects sometimes used to hand events off to integrations.
Tables Heap or append-optimized tables mapped directly to sync targets. Libraries The schema-equivalent containers that scope which files a sync reads.
