Why teams connect IBM Informix and Rockset

Connect IBM Informix and Rockset 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 Informix's rows in Rockset, 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 Informix 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 Informix sync into Rockset in real time, and result tables in Rockset sync back into IBM Informix, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Power in-app search and filtering over synced operational data using SQL over REST.
  • Serve real-time dashboards over CRM and ERP records synced from operational databases.
  • Sync sensor and meter readings stored in Informix TimeSeries structures to analytics platforms.
  • Run a two-way sync between an Informix-backed retail or POS application and a CRM so store data reaches go-to-market teams.

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Rockset and keep IBM Informix focused on its operational workload.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from IBM Informix land in Rockset as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Rockset sync into IBM Informix, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

What you can sync between IBM Informix and Rockset

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 Informix objects Rockset objects
Stored procedures Server-side logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths. Workspaces Namespaces that group collections and query lambdas per team or environment.
Logical logs The transaction log that Informix's CDC interface reads committed changes from. Query Lambdas Named, parameterized SQL queries invoked over REST to read synced data.
Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Aliases Stable names that point at collections, used to swap datasets without changing queries.
Tables Relational tables mapped directly to sync targets. Integrations Managed source connections (databases, streams, object storage) feeding collections.
Rows The unit of read and write, keyed by primary key. Virtual Instances Isolated compute units that separate ingest from query workloads.
Views Read-only projections used to shape outbound data. Collections Schemaless document containers that ingested and synced records land in.
