Why teams connect IBM Db2 and Recurly

Work with Recurly's financial data straight from IBM Db2: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Invoices, Transactions, Line Items, Coupons and Redemptions from Recurly into Sequences, Tablespaces, Databases, Schemas in IBM Db2 and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against IBM Db2, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Recurly with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Trigger revenue-recognition or ERP entries when new_subscription and canceled_subscription webhooks fire.
  • 02 Post usage records to Measured Units on metered Subscriptions from a metering database before each bill run.
  • 03 Expose Db2 records that back core business systems to a CRM so sales and support see order or account state.
  • 04 Sync SaaS data into Db2 tables that existing enterprise applications and reports already consume.

Common sync patterns

React to financial events

Changes in Recurly appear in IBM Db2 as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Recurly live in IBM Db2 as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on IBM Db2; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Recurly.

What you can sync between IBM Db2 and Recurly

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 Recurly objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces separating synced data from application and system objects. Transactions Individual payment attempts — captures, refunds, and voids; typically read into a warehouse for reconciliation and dunning analysis. Schemas is specific to IBM Db2 and Transactions to Recurly — 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. Line Items One-time charges and credits on an account outside a subscription; synced for accurate revenue and adjustment reporting. Tables is specific to IBM Db2 and Line Items to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections often used to expose curated slices to a sync. Coupons and Redemptions Discount definitions and their application to accounts and subscriptions; read for discount and promotion analysis. Views is specific to IBM Db2 and Coupons and Redemptions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes Support fast key lookups on sync match columns. Billing Info Tokenized payment method (card/ACH) on an account; written when onboarding customers and read for payment-health signals (never stores raw card numbers). Indexes is specific to IBM Db2 and Billing Info to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures Existing business logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths. Measured Units and Usage Metered-billing units; usage records are posted to a subscription before each bill run for consumption-based pricing. Stored Procedures is specific to IBM Db2 and Measured Units and Usage to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows. Accounts Customer/billing entity records keyed by account_code; the anchor most subscriptions and invoices hang off. Synced two-way with CRM accounts or a customer database. Sequences is specific to IBM Db2 and Accounts to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between IBM Db2 and Recurly

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 Recurly 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 Recurly through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Recurly IBM Db2 Sub-second propagation

DetectionRecurly notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (JSON or XML, one format per endpoint) for account, subscription, payment, and invoice events, plus incremental polling of list endpoints.

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.
  • Recurly: Production sites default to 1,000 requests/min with only GET requests counting toward the limit; sandbox sites 400/min with all requests counting; the limit is a sliding 5-minute window, X-RateLimit headers report the quota, and breaches return HTTP 429.
