Why teams connect IBM Informix and Jobvite

Put your workforce data where your apps can reach it: IBM Informix and Jobvite share the same people, positions, and org structure in real time.

Jobvite is the system of record for the people side of the business — employees, candidates, roles, and the org structure around them. IBM Informix is where internal tools, dashboards, provisioning jobs, and analytics actually read and store records. The overlap is the workforce itself: Attachment, Offer, Candidate, Requisition (Job) in Jobvite need to exist as queryable Tables, Rows, Views, TimeSeries objects in IBM Informix before an app can act on them. When that bridge is a nightly export or a hand-run CSV, every downstream system spends the day working from a roster that has already moved on.

Stacksync syncs Tables, Rows, Views, TimeSeries objects in IBM Informix with Attachment, Offer, Candidate, Requisition (Job) in Jobvite field by field, in real time. You decide which system owns which fields — Jobvite typically owns identity and org attributes, while operational or computed values can flow back the other way — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent, matching records on a stable key and resolving conflicts by rules you set.

The result is one live picture of the workforce on both sides: HR keeps its source of truth, and the database keeps a current mirror that internal apps, reports, and access controls can trust without a batch window in between.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync sensor and meter readings stored in Informix TimeSeries structures to analytics platforms.
  • 02 Run a two-way sync between an Informix-backed retail or POS application and a CRM so store data reaches go-to-market teams.
  • 03 Two-way sync Candidate records and their Workflow Status between Jobvite and a Postgres database so recruiting-ops teams query and update pipeline data in SQL.
  • 04 Write New Hire records into an HRIS or onboarding system the moment a candidate is marked hired, driven by Jobvite's candidate hired webhook.

Common sync patterns

One directory of record

When a person record is added, changed, or deactivated in either system, the matching row in the other stays current, ending dual maintenance.

Reporting and analytics on current data

Attachment, Offer, Candidate, Requisition (Job) replicate into IBM Informix where they join operational tables, so headcount, roles, and status reports run on the live state without manual pulls.

Org and structure stay aligned

Groups, departments, managers, and reporting lines from Jobvite stay consistent in IBM Informix, so hierarchy-driven logic and permissions don't drift.

What you can sync between IBM Informix and Jobvite

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 Informix objects Jobvite objects How this pairing syncs
Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. New Hire Hired-candidate records surfaced in the candidate feed and via the candidate hired webhook; commonly written into an HRIS or onboarding tool. Databases is specific to IBM Informix and New Hire to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational tables mapped directly to sync targets. Employee Employee roster pushed through POST /employee (Onboard sync), used for referral matching and internal-mobility job postings. Tables is specific to IBM Informix and Employee to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows The unit of read and write, keyed by primary key. Attachment Resumes, cover letters, and files attached to a candidate; synced out to object storage or a document management system. Rows is specific to IBM Informix and Attachment to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used to shape outbound data. Offer Offer state tied to an application (extended, accepted, declined); read out for offer-acceptance reporting and written to downstream comp or HR systems. Views is specific to IBM Informix and Offer to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
TimeSeries objects Informix's native time-series type, usually exposed to syncs through virtual tables. Candidate Read from the candidate feed (GET /candidate) and written back via POST /candidate/updateCandidates to change status, notes, and disposition on each record. TimeSeries objects is specific to IBM Informix and Candidate to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored procedures Server-side logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths. Requisition (Job) Job openings created or updated through POST /job and read from GET /jobFeed; maps to opening tables in an ATS reporting warehouse. Stored procedures is specific to IBM Informix and Requisition (Job) to Jobvite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between IBM Informix and Jobvite

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 Informix Jobvite 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.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Jobvite through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Jobvite IBM Informix Sub-second propagation

DetectionJobvite notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. A candidate hired webhook, configured per customer by a Jobvite rep, POSTs to a custom URL on hire/offer-accepted events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • IBM Informix: Bounded by server resources and session limits rather than an API quota.
  • Jobvite: Roughly 15 requests per minute and 850 per hour, reset at midnight Pacific, with per-endpoint daily caps (e.g. 20,000/day candidate GET/PUT, 500/day employee sync); 429 on exceed.
