Why teams connect IBM Db2 and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

Keep IBM Db2 and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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 OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) 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

  • 01 Expose Db2 records that back core business systems to a CRM so sales and support see order or account state.
  • 02 Sync SaaS data into Db2 tables that existing enterprise applications and reports already consume.
  • 03 Write changes from SaaS applications back into OCI so PL/SQL-based processes operate on current data.
  • 04 Replicate operational tables from OCI to an analytics warehouse with log-based CDC instead of nightly batch dumps.

Common sync patterns

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both IBM Db2 and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud), 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.

Shared reference data between services

Services that own separate databases stay consistent on the records they share, without a custom replication layer.

What you can sync between IBM Db2 and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

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 OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces separating synced data from application and system objects. Schemas Namespace boundaries that scope which objects a sync connection can access Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Tables Primary read/write target for syncing rows with SaaS systems or other databases. Tables The primary sync surface; rows are read and written directly over SQL Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Views Read-only projections often used to expose curated slices to a sync. Views Read-only projections used to expose curated subsets to downstream systems Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows. Sequences Key generators that matter when writing new rows from external systems Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Stored Procedures Existing business logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths. PL/SQL procedures and packages Server-side logic that can react to synced data or transform it in place Stored Procedures is specific to IBM Db2 and PL/SQL procedures and packages to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tablespaces Physical storage layout that operators consider when adding synced tables. JSON collections Document-style storage in the converged engine, synced alongside relational tables Tablespaces is specific to IBM Db2 and JSON collections to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between IBM Db2 and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

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.

IBM Db2 OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in IBM Db2 are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC through IBM's replication tooling where licensed.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) IBM Db2 Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC from redo logs (LogMiner or GoldenGate), or timestamp polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to IBM Db2 as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • IBM Db2: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by instance resources and workload management settings.
  • OCI Database (Oracle Cloud): Throughput bounded by instance sizing rather than API quotas.
