Why teams connect InterSystems IRIS and Ramp

Work with Ramp's financial data straight from InterSystems IRIS: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Cards, Users, Departments, Reimbursements from Ramp into Namespaces, Stored Procedures, Tables, Views in InterSystems IRIS and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against InterSystems IRIS, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Ramp with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read Reimbursements into a finance database for cross-entity expense reporting and reconciliation without manual CSV exports.
  • 02 Two-way sync Transactions and their accounting codings with a Postgres warehouse so finance analyzes spend in SQL and pushes GL categories and memos back to Ramp.
  • 03 Replicate IRIS tables to Postgres so application teams can build against a familiar database
  • 04 Sync operational tables in IRIS bi-directionally with a CRM so business teams work on IRIS-backed data without SQL access

Common sync patterns

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Ramp live in InterSystems IRIS as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on InterSystems IRIS; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Ramp.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in InterSystems IRIS propagate into Ramp, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

What you can sync between InterSystems IRIS and Ramp

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 Ramp objects How this pairing syncs
Persistent Classes Object-model classes project to tables, so class data is reachable through SQL. Cards Physical and virtual card records; created and managed through the API to provision or suspend cardholder spend. Persistent Classes is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Cards to Ramp — 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. Users Employee and cardholder records; invited, updated, and deactivated, commonly synced from an HRIS or identity provider. Globals is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Users to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Namespaces Namespaces partition databases and determine the connection context for integrations. Departments Org groupings for cost-center and GL allocation; pushed from an ERP/HRIS and referenced by cards and transactions. Namespaces is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Departments to Ramp — 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. Reimbursements Out-of-pocket expense claims; read for reporting and marked ready-to-sync then synced to the ERP. Stored Procedures is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Reimbursements to Ramp — 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. Bills Accounts-payable bills; created, updated, approved, and paid, then posted ready-to-sync and synced to accounting. Tables is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Bills to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views expose curated slices of data for outbound replication. Vendors Supplier records under the accounting namespace; uploaded and updated for AP matching and payments. Views is specific to InterSystems IRIS and Vendors to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between InterSystems IRIS and Ramp

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

Ramp InterSystems IRIS Sub-second propagation

DetectionRamp notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Signed webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 X-Ramp-Signature) for bill, transaction, reimbursement, vendor, and user events.

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.
  • Ramp: 200 requests per 10-second rolling window per source IP; exceeding it returns 429 Too Many Requests, and requests running over 60 seconds return 504. Results use keyset pagination (follow the page.next URL / start cursor); higher limits can be requested from support.
