Why teams connect IBM Db2 and MariaDB

Keep IBM Db2 and MariaDB 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 IBM Db2 and MariaDB 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

  • Expose Db2 records that back core business systems to a CRM so sales and support see order or account state.
  • Sync SaaS data into Db2 tables that existing enterprise applications and reports already consume.
  • Keep several MariaDB instances aligned with one system of record across environments
  • Two-way sync between a MariaDB application database and a CRM so both systems hold the same customer records

Regional or environment copies

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

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both IBM Db2 and MariaDB, 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.

What you can sync between IBM Db2 and MariaDB

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 MariaDB objects
Views Read-only projections often used to expose curated slices to a sync. System-Versioned Tables Temporal tables that retain row history natively, useful for auditing synced changes.
Indexes Support fast key lookups on sync match columns. JSON Columns Semi-structured payloads validated with JSON functions.
Stored Procedures Existing business logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths. Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows.
Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows. Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes.
Tablespaces Physical storage layout that operators consider when adding synced tables. Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems.
Databases The connection target; each database holds the schemas a sync addresses. Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources.

How the IBM Db2 and MariaDB connectors work

IBM Db2

Integration surface
SQL via JDBC/ODBC/CLI drivers; optional REST endpoints in some editions
Authentication
Database credentials, typically backed by OS or LDAP authentication
Change detection
Log-based CDC through IBM's replication tooling where licensed; otherwise polling on timestamp or audit columns
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by instance resources and workload management settings

MariaDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (MySQL-compatible client/server protocol)
Authentication
Database credentials (connection string or parameters), with optional SSL root certificate upload and optional SSH tunnel (SSH user + host)
Change detection
Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing
Capabilities
