Why teams connect IBM Netezza and Navan

Land the financial records from Navan in IBM Netezza continuously, and write results back, without building or maintaining a pipeline.

Finance data belongs in the warehouse: revenue, invoices, payments, and customers joined with everything else the business measures. Getting it there usually means an extraction pipeline that breaks quietly and delivers yesterday's numbers.

Stacksync syncs Custom Fields, Receipts, Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments, Users from Navan into tables in IBM Netezza in real time, and the connection works in both directions: values computed in IBM Netezza can be written back to fields in Navan where you want them operational. Schema changes are handled, API limits are managed, and the sync is something you configure rather than code you maintain.

Common use cases

  • 01 Pull Bookings by date range into a database to reconcile travel reservations against Card Transactions and monitor travel-policy spend.
  • 02 Sync Users and department mappings from an HRIS into reporting tables so every transaction is attributed to a cost center and manager.
  • 03 Keep Netezza and a cloud warehouse in sync during a platform migration so reporting stays consistent.
  • 04 Sync curated Netezza views into BI and finance reporting tools on a schedule.

Common sync patterns

Finance analytics without ETL

Invoices, payments, and customer records from Navan arrive in IBM Netezza as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind.

Revenue joined with everything else

Analysts combine Navan's financial records with product, marketing, or operational data already in IBM Netezza for reporting the finance system cannot do alone.

Write-back of computed fields

Scores or segments computed in IBM Netezza, like payment-risk flags or customer tiers, sync back onto records in Navan where the finance team can act on them.

What you can sync between IBM Netezza and Navan

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 Netezza objects Navan objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespace tables within a database. Bookings Flight, hotel, rail, and car reservations from the Booking API; pulled read-only by createdFrom/createdTo date range for trip and travel-spend reporting. Schemas is specific to IBM Netezza and Bookings to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Distributed tables mapped directly to sync targets. Custom Fields Company metadata such as cost centers and project codes; discovered via GET and their option lists created or updated via async POST. Tables is specific to IBM Netezza and Custom Fields to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used to shape outbound data. Receipts Receipt images tied to each transaction; fetched read-only through presigned URLs for archival in a warehouse or document store. Views is specific to IBM Netezza and Receipts to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized views Precomputed results sometimes used as efficient read sources. Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments Money-movement records including repayments, FX and platform fees, and credit or debit memos; read-only for reconciliation ledgers. Materialized views is specific to IBM Netezza and Repayments, Fees, and Adjustments to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences Key generators referenced when writing new rows. Users Employee and cardholder records referenced by every transaction; usually provisioned from an HRIS and used to map spend to people and departments. Sequences is specific to IBM Netezza and Users to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External tables File-backed load/unload paths used for bulk movement alongside row-level syncs. Card Transactions Navan physical and virtual card spend; read via GET, then GL codes, cost centers, and ERP sync status are written back per transaction through the transaction update endpoint. External tables is specific to IBM Netezza and Card Transactions to Navan — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between IBM Netezza and Navan

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 Netezza Navan Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls IBM Netezza for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with timestamp or key-based cursors.

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

Navan IBM Netezza Sub-second propagation

DetectionNavan notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Navan's Expense API supports webhooks for transaction and expense events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • IBM Netezza: Bounded by appliance or instance capacity and concurrency settings.
  • Navan: Requests are throttled with HTTP 429 and Navan recommends retrying with exponential backoff; the Expense/Public API must first be enabled per account by Navan.
