Why teams connect InterSystems IRIS and Jms

Keep InterSystems IRIS and Jms in step: the rows in your database and the MapMessage, BytesMessage, Durable Subscription, Message headers and properties your engineering tools track stay consistent in real time, in both directions.

InterSystems IRIS is where your application's durable data lives; Jms is where engineering and operations teams track the issues, events, messages, or identities that run alongside it. The two overlap constantly, a row should open a ticket, an alert should land as a record, a user in one should exist in the other, but bridging them today means per-tool integration code: auth, webhooks, pagination, rate limits, and retries, built and maintained separately for every tool.

Stacksync syncs Schemas, Persistent Classes, Globals, Namespaces in InterSystems IRIS with MapMessage, BytesMessage, Durable Subscription, Message headers and properties in Jms field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set, so the database and the tooling around it never drift apart.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync operational tables in IRIS bi-directionally with a CRM so business teams work on IRIS-backed data without SQL access
  • 02 Consolidate IRIS data with other databases in an analytics warehouse for cross-system reporting
  • 03 Bridge a legacy IBM MQ or ActiveMQ Queue to a SaaS system of record by consuming each message and writing the record through the SaaS API.
  • 04 Fan out inventory or pricing updates onto a Topic with durable subscriptions so multiple services stay aligned even after downtime.

Common sync patterns

Turn rows into the records your tools track

A new or changed row in InterSystems IRIS creates or updates the matching record in Jms, whether that is an issue, an event, a message, or a user, so the tool reflects the database without a custom API job.

Land tool activity as queryable rows

Records and events from Jms arrive in InterSystems IRIS as rows, so tickets, alerts, messages, or identity changes become joinable data your services and reports read directly.

One integration pattern instead of per-tool API code

Read and write the synced tables in InterSystems IRIS and Stacksync keeps Jms current, replacing the auth, webhooks, rate limits, and retry logic you would otherwise maintain for each tool.

What you can sync between InterSystems IRIS and Jms

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.

InterSystems IRIS objects Jms objects How this pairing syncs
Views SQL views expose curated slices of data for outbound replication. BytesMessage Raw binary body for files, protobuf, or opaque payloads; passed through as a byte stream when structured field mapping is not required. Views is specific to InterSystems IRIS and BytesMessage to Jms — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Schema organization scopes which tables a sync connection can see. Durable Subscription Named topic subscription that retains messages while the consumer is offline, so a sync that disconnects does not miss events published in the meantime. Schemas is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Durable Subscription to Jms — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Persistent Classes Object-model classes project to tables, so class data is reachable through SQL. Message headers and properties JMSCorrelationID, JMSReplyTo, JMSTimestamp, JMSType plus JMSX/application-defined properties; used for correlation, routing, and selector-based filtering. Persistent Classes is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Message headers and properties to Jms — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Globals The underlying multidimensional storage; typically accessed indirectly via SQL or objects in syncs. Dead Letter Queue Provider-managed destination (e.g. ActiveMQ.DLQ, IBM MQ dead-letter queue) where messages exceeding redelivery limits land; read to reconcile failed deliveries. Globals is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Dead Letter Queue to Jms — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Namespaces Namespaces partition databases and determine the connection context for integrations. Queue Point-to-point destination where each message is delivered to exactly one consumer. Stacksync consumes messages to load into a database, or publishes messages for a downstream Java service to process. Namespaces is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Queue to Jms — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures Server-side logic callable over SQL supports controlled writes and transformations. Topic Publish/subscribe destination that fans each message out to every active subscriber. Stacksync subscribes to event streams or publishes records so multiple services react. Stored Procedures is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Topic to Jms — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between InterSystems IRIS and Jms

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.

InterSystems IRIS Jms Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls InterSystems IRIS for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling (timestamp or query-based).

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

Jms InterSystems IRIS Sub-second propagation

DetectionJms notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Asynchronous push — the broker delivers messages to registered consumers (MessageListener.onMessage) in real time, with no polling.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • InterSystems IRIS: Constrained by database resources rather than published API rate limits.
  • Jms: JMS defines no protocol-level rate limits; throughput ceilings, consumer prefetch, and producer flow control are configured on the broker (ActiveMQ, IBM MQ, Solace, TIBCO EMS, etc.).

InterSystems IRIS

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC, plus object and REST access layers
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Polling (timestamp or query-based); no standard webhook surface
Capabilities

Rate limits
Constrained by database resources rather than published API rate limits

Jms

Integration surface
JMS / Jakarta Messaging API (classic API and simplified JMSContext) over provider transports such as OpenWire, AMQP, IBM MQ, or STOMP
Authentication
Username/password credentials passed to ConnectionFactory.createConnection(); ConnectionFactory and Destinations resolved via JNDI. Transport security (TLS) and stronger auth (SASL, JAAS, client certificates) are broker-implementation-specific.
Change detection
Asynchronous push — the broker delivers messages to registered consumers (MessageListener.onMessage) in real time, with no polling. Message selectors (an SQL-92 subset over headers/properties) filter delivery. There is no modified-date polling or CDC replay, and queue consumption is destructive.
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
JMS defines no protocol-level rate limits; throughput ceilings, consumer prefetch, and producer flow control are configured on the broker (ActiveMQ, IBM MQ, Solace, TIBCO EMS, etc.).
