Why teams connect Adobeanalytics and IBM Informix

Give Adobeanalytics the users, events, and records that live in IBM Informix in real time, and sync the cohorts and scores Adobeanalytics computes back into IBM Informix where your applications read them.

Adobeanalytics is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into IBM Informix, so IBM Informix always reflects the current state of Adobeanalytics — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

A database holds the rows your business runs on: the users, events, orders, and records that every service reads and writes. Adobeanalytics is where people make sense of them, as dashboards, funnels, cohorts, and metrics. Moving the data from IBM Informix into Adobeanalytics usually means a hand-built extract or a change-data-capture pipeline that breaks the moment a column is renamed, and reporting that always trails last night's load.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Segment definitions into a marketing database so downstream tools target the same audiences Adobe Analytics computes.
  • 02 Read Users and Usage/Audit logs into a security or governance database for access reviews and tool-usage reporting across the Analytics company.
  • 03 Feed inventory and transaction data from legacy Informix applications into modern ERPs during migration.
  • 04 Replicate Informix tables into a cloud warehouse using its change data capture interface for near-real-time reporting.

Common sync patterns

Filter and grouping dimensions kept fresh

Attributes teams slice by, such as plan, region, or account owner, stay current in Adobeanalytics because they sync from IBM Informix as they change, instead of going stale after a one-time import.

Where Adobeanalytics tracks product events: behavior onto stored records

Signup, usage, and lifecycle events captured in Adobeanalytics sync into IBM Informix as rows, so applications and internal tools can read behavioral data next to the records they already keep.

Where Adobeanalytics builds cohorts or scores: results your services can read

Segments, cohorts, or scores computed in Adobeanalytics sync back into IBM Informix, where the services that read from the database act on them at query speed without calling the analytics API.

What you can sync between Adobeanalytics and IBM Informix

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.

Adobeanalytics objects IBM Informix objects How this pairing syncs
Reports Core reporting endpoint (POST /reports on analytics.adobe.io); returns ranked or trended report data for chosen metrics broken down by dimensions over a date range, with optional segment filters. The main dataset Stacksync reads out. Logical logs The transaction log that Informix's CDC interface reads committed changes from. Reports is specific to Adobeanalytics and Logical logs to IBM Informix — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Dimensions Available report dimensions (eVars, props, and standard dimensions) per report suite, read via GET /dimensions; pulled as reporting metadata to build report requests and mirror the model. Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Dimensions is specific to Adobeanalytics and Databases to IBM Informix — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Metrics Standard metrics available for a report suite, read via GET /metrics; read as metadata to construct report requests and document available measures. Tables Relational tables mapped directly to sync targets. Metrics is specific to Adobeanalytics and Tables to IBM Informix — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Calculated Metrics User-defined derived metrics, read via GET /calculatedmetrics; mirrored so downstream tools reference the same calculated-metric definitions. Rows The unit of read and write, keyed by primary key. Calculated Metrics is specific to Adobeanalytics and Rows to IBM Informix — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Segments Saved segment definitions used to filter reports, read via GET /segments; cataloged and reused so downstream systems target the same audiences. Views Read-only projections used to shape outbound data. Segments is specific to Adobeanalytics and Views to IBM Informix — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Date Ranges Saved relative or rolling date ranges, read via GET /dateranges; read as reusable reporting components for report requests. TimeSeries objects Informix's native time-series type, usually exposed to syncs through virtual tables. Date Ranges is specific to Adobeanalytics and TimeSeries objects to IBM Informix — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Adobeanalytics and IBM Informix

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Adobeanalytics IBM Informix Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Adobeanalytics for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Pull-based over a date range: reports are requested for a from/to window and re-queried on a schedule.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to IBM Informix as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

IBM Informix Adobeanalytics Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in IBM Informix are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Informix's Change Data Capture API reading committed changes from logical logs.

DeliveryAdobeanalytics does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Adobeanalytics's output flows back as field updates on the originating IBM Informix records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Adobeanalytics: The Analytics 2.0 API enforces 12 requests per 6 seconds (about 120 per minute) per user; exceeding it returns HTTP 429 with error_code 429050. A separate per-report-suite reporting-engine throttle can slow large requests without returning an error.
  • IBM Informix: Bounded by server resources and session limits rather than an API quota.

How the Adobeanalytics and IBM Informix connectors work

Adobeanalytics

Integration surface
Analytics 2.0 REST API on analytics.adobe.io for reporting and components; Data Feeds and Data Warehouse for raw hit-level export; Data Insertion and Bulk Data Insertion (CSV) APIs for inbound server-side collection.
Authentication
OAuth Server-to-Server via the Adobe Developer Console (JWT service-account auth was deprecated January 1, 2025). The company's global company ID is sent in the x-proxy-global-company-id header, and the integration needs at least the Report Suites, Metrics, and Dimensions permission groups.
Change detection
Pull-based over a date range: reports are requested for a from/to window and re-queried on a schedule. No change-data-capture feed or report-data webhooks; Adobe recommends not polling for new data faster than every 30 minutes and caching results.
