Why teams connect IBM Db2 and Plex ERP

Give your engineers Plex ERP's data in IBM Db2: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Parts, Inventory, Production jobs, Sales orders from Plex ERP into IBM Db2 and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Plex ERP is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in IBM Db2 sync back into Plex ERP with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Feed changes captured from Db2 logs into downstream event pipelines.
  • 02 Expose Db2 records that back core business systems to a CRM so sales and support see order or account state.
  • 03 Push sales orders captured in e-commerce or EDI systems into Plex for scheduling and fulfillment.
  • 04 Mirror purchase orders and receipts to accounting or planning tools.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Plex ERP interface, limits, and retries.

React to ERP changes

Updates in Plex ERP arrive as row changes in IBM Db2, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where Plex ERP is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

Worker and org records stay current in IBM Db2 for provisioning, access, and reporting systems that read from the database.

What you can sync between IBM Db2 and Plex ERP

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 Plex ERP objects How this pairing syncs
Stored Procedures Existing business logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths. Shipments Outbound logistics records synced to trading partners and tracking systems Stored Procedures is specific to IBM Db2 and Shipments to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows. Quality records Checksheet and inspection data pulled into plant dashboards Sequences is specific to IBM Db2 and Quality records to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tablespaces Physical storage layout that operators consider when adding synced tables. Parts Item master records shared with CRM, e-commerce, and planning tools Tablespaces is specific to IBM Db2 and Parts to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases The connection target; each database holds the schemas a sync addresses. Inventory On-hand balances and locations replicated for visibility outside the plant system Databases is specific to IBM Db2 and Inventory to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces separating synced data from application and system objects. Production jobs Shop-floor work records combining ERP and MES data for output reporting Schemas is specific to IBM Db2 and Production jobs to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Primary read/write target for syncing rows with SaaS systems or other databases. Sales orders Demand records written in from e-commerce or EDI channels and read out for fulfillment status Tables is specific to IBM Db2 and Sales orders to Plex ERP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between IBM Db2 and Plex ERP

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 Plex ERP 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 written to Plex ERP through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Plex ERP IBM Db2 Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Plex ERP for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. 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.
  • Plex ERP: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
