Why teams connect IBM Db2 and Intercom

Treat Intercom like part of your database: its records live in IBM Db2 as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in IBM Db2, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Data Events, Custom Data Attributes, Tags, Segments from Intercom into Sequences, Tablespaces, Databases, Schemas in IBM Db2 with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Intercom with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Mirror conversations and tickets into a warehouse for support analytics and SLA reporting
  • Keep custom data attributes updated from billing or ERP systems so message segments reflect current plan and spend
  • Sync SaaS data into Db2 tables that existing enterprise applications and reports already consume.
  • Replicate Db2 tables into a cloud warehouse continuously instead of nightly batch extracts.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Intercom arrive as row changes in IBM Db2, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Intercom become tables in IBM Db2 you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to IBM Db2 sync onto the matching records in Intercom, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

What you can sync between IBM Db2 and Intercom

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.

IBM Db2 objects Intercom objects
Schemas Namespaces separating synced data from application and system objects. Data Events Behavioral events pushed in from product databases trigger messages and flows.
Tables Primary read/write target for syncing rows with SaaS systems or other databases. Custom Data Attributes Typed custom fields on contacts and companies hold synced billing and usage data.
Views Read-only projections often used to expose curated slices to a sync. Tags Labels applied to contacts, companies, and conversations sync for routing and reporting.
Indexes Support fast key lookups on sync match columns. Segments Saved audience definitions are readable for targeting parity across tools.
Stored Procedures Existing business logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths. Admins & Teams Teammate records map conversation ownership to CRM users.
Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows. Articles Help center content is accessible via API for knowledge sync and audits.
