Why teams connect IBM Informix and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales

Treat Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales like part of your database: its records live in IBM Informix as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in IBM Informix, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales into Views, TimeSeries objects, Stored procedures, Logical logs in IBM Informix with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Feed BI models with continuously updated CRM data instead of scheduled exports.
  • Bi-directional sync of accounts, contacts, and opportunities with a SQL database so teams query CRM data without OData or FetchXML.
  • Sync sensor and meter readings stored in Informix TimeSeries structures to analytics platforms.
  • Run a two-way sync between an Informix-backed retail or POS application and a CRM so store data reaches go-to-market teams.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales arrive as row changes in IBM Informix, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales become tables in IBM Informix you can join with application data directly.

Logical logs The transaction log that Informix's CDC interface reads committed changes from. Contacts Person records linked to accounts; synced with marketing and support systems.
Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Leads Prospect records; written in from enrichment or web forms, read out on qualification.
Tables Relational tables mapped directly to sync targets. Opportunities Deal records with stages and estimated revenue; synced for pipeline reporting and close-triggered workflows.
Rows The unit of read and write, keyed by primary key. Quotes Pricing proposals; often synced with CPQ or ERP pricing data.
