Why teams connect InterSystems IRIS and PagerDuty

Keep InterSystems IRIS and PagerDuty in step: the rows in your database and the Incidents, Services, Users, Teams your engineering tools track stay consistent in real time, in both directions.

InterSystems IRIS is where your application's durable data lives; PagerDuty 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 Tables, Views, Schemas, Persistent Classes in InterSystems IRIS with Incidents, Services, Users, Teams in PagerDuty 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 Write Schedules and Escalation Policies from a workforce tool or source-of-truth spreadsheet so rotations and overrides stay consistent across teams.
  • 04 Mirror Services and their integration keys with a CMDB or service catalog so ownership and tier metadata stay aligned in both directions.

Common sync patterns

Land tool activity as queryable rows

Records and events from PagerDuty 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 PagerDuty current, replacing the auth, webhooks, rate limits, and retry logic you would otherwise maintain for each tool.

React to changes on either side in near real time

Updates in PagerDuty arrive as row changes in InterSystems IRIS, and writes to InterSystems IRIS propagate to PagerDuty within seconds, so triggers, jobs, and alerts fire without polling.

What you can sync between InterSystems IRIS and PagerDuty

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 PagerDuty objects How this pairing syncs
Globals The underlying multidimensional storage; typically accessed indirectly via SQL or objects in syncs. Schedules On-call rotations built from layers and overrides; read and written so calendar or workforce tools can drive who is on call. Globals is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Schedules to PagerDuty — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Namespaces Namespaces partition databases and determine the connection context for integrations. Escalation Policies Ordered rules routing incidents to users and schedules; read and written two-way to codify paging logic from a source of truth. Namespaces is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Escalation Policies to PagerDuty — 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. On-Calls Computed view of who is on call now, derived from schedules and escalation policies; read-only, ideal for pushing current responders into other systems. Stored Procedures is specific to InterSystems IRIS and On-Calls to PagerDuty — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational projections of stored data are the primary read/write surface for SQL-based syncs. Notes and Log Entries Notes are writable to append context to an incident; log entries are a read-only record of every action taken on that incident. Tables is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Notes and Log Entries to PagerDuty — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views expose curated slices of data for outbound replication. Incidents Core records with status of triggered, acknowledged, or resolved plus urgency and assignments; created, updated, and resolved two-way, with V3 webhooks firing on each transition. Views is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Incidents to PagerDuty — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Schema organization scopes which tables a sync connection can see. Services Technical services that group incidents and hold integration keys; read and written two-way, with service.created, service.updated, and service.deleted webhook events. Schemas is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Services to PagerDuty — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between InterSystems IRIS and PagerDuty

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

PagerDuty InterSystems IRIS Sub-second propagation

DetectionPagerDuty notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. V3 webhook subscriptions push incident.* and service.* events (triggered, acknowledged, escalated, resolved, created, updated).

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.
  • PagerDuty: REST API allows 960 requests per minute per token and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; the Events API is rate-limited separately per integration key.
