Why teams connect InterSystems IRIS and Starburst Enterprise

Connect InterSystems IRIS and Starburst Enterprise 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 InterSystems IRIS's rows in Starburst Enterprise, 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 InterSystems IRIS where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in InterSystems IRIS sync into Starburst Enterprise in real time, and result tables in Starburst Enterprise sync back into InterSystems IRIS, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Read federated views that join warehouse, lake, and database tables, then sync the result into operational tools like a CRM
  • Expose Iceberg or Hive lake tables to sync jobs through one SQL endpoint without moving the data first
  • Write enriched or corrected records from SaaS apps back into IRIS tables for on-platform processing
  • Replicate IRIS tables to Postgres so application teams can build against a familiar database

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from InterSystems IRIS land in Starburst Enterprise as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Starburst Enterprise sync into InterSystems IRIS, 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 InterSystems IRIS and Starburst Enterprise

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.

InterSystems IRIS objects Starburst Enterprise objects
Persistent Classes Object-model classes project to tables, so class data is reachable through SQL. Schemas Namespaces within a catalog, mirroring the underlying source's databases or schemas.
Globals The underlying multidimensional storage; typically accessed indirectly via SQL or objects in syncs. Tables Queryable relations; writes pass through to sources whose connectors support them.
Namespaces Namespaces partition databases and determine the connection context for integrations. Views Engine-level SQL views used to shape federated data before syncing it out.
Stored Procedures Server-side logic callable over SQL supports controlled writes and transformations. Materialized views Precomputed results that make repeated sync reads cheaper.
Tables Relational projections of stored data are the primary read/write surface for SQL-based syncs. Columns Typed per the Trino type system, mapped from each source's native types.
Views SQL views expose curated slices of data for outbound replication. Catalogs Each catalog maps to a connector (Iceberg, Hive, PostgreSQL, and others) exposing an external source.
