Why teams connect Exasol and InterSystems IRIS

Connect InterSystems IRIS and Exasol 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 Exasol, 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 Exasol in real time, and result tables in Exasol sync back into InterSystems IRIS, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate data from multiple operational databases into Exasol as the central analytics layer.
  • 02 Keep dimension tables such as customers and products aligned with the systems of record.
  • 03 Write enriched or corrected records from SaaS apps back into IRIS tables for on-platform processing
  • 04 Replicate IRIS tables to Postgres so application teams can build against a familiar database

Common sync patterns

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Exasol and keep InterSystems IRIS focused on its operational workload.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

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

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Exasol sync into InterSystems IRIS, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

What you can sync between Exasol and InterSystems IRIS

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.

Exasol objects InterSystems IRIS objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces that group the tables a sync reads from or writes into. Schemas Schema organization scopes which tables a sync connection can see. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Tables Primary sync target; columnar relational tables written with standard SQL. Tables Relational projections of stored data are the primary read/write surface for SQL-based syncs. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Views Read-only query surfaces often used as curated sources for reverse ETL. Views SQL views expose curated slices of data for outbound replication. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
UDF scripts In-database functions that can transform synced data after load. Stored Procedures Server-side logic callable over SQL supports controlled writes and transformations. UDF scripts is specific to Exasol and Stored Procedures to InterSystems IRIS — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and roles Grant read/write access for the dedicated integration account. Persistent Classes Object-model classes project to tables, so class data is reachable through SQL. Users and roles is specific to Exasol and Persistent Classes to InterSystems IRIS — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Virtual schemas Federated views over external sources; useful for deciding what needs physical replication. Globals The underlying multidimensional storage; typically accessed indirectly via SQL or objects in syncs. Virtual schemas is specific to Exasol and Globals to InterSystems IRIS — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Exasol and InterSystems IRIS

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.

DetectionStacksync polls Exasol for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with timestamp or key columns.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Exasol: No API quota; concurrency is bounded by cluster resources and session limits.
  • InterSystems IRIS: Constrained by database resources rather than published API rate limits.
