Why teams connect Jms and Postgres Heroku

Keep Postgres Heroku and Jms in step: the rows in your database and the Durable Subscription, Message headers and properties, Dead Letter Queue, Queue your engineering tools track stay consistent in real time, in both directions.

Postgres Heroku 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 Sequences, Follower Databases, Tables, Views in Postgres Heroku with Durable Subscription, Message headers and properties, Dead Letter Queue, Queue 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 Reflect billing and subscription records into the app database so product logic reads local rows
  • 02 Expose CRM objects as Postgres tables the Heroku application can query and join directly
  • 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

Land tool activity as queryable rows

Records and events from Jms arrive in Postgres Heroku 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 Postgres Heroku and Stacksync keeps Jms 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 Jms arrive as row changes in Postgres Heroku, and writes to Postgres Heroku propagate to Jms within seconds, so triggers, jobs, and alerts fire without polling.

What you can sync between Jms and Postgres Heroku

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.

Jms objects Postgres Heroku objects How this pairing 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. Schemas Namespaces that scope which tables a sync reads and writes. Dead Letter Queue is specific to Jms and Schemas to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts from connected systems. Queue is specific to Jms and Primary and Unique Keys to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. JSONB Columns Semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS objects and metadata. Topic is specific to Jms and JSONB Columns to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
TextMessage Most common body type, carrying a String that is usually JSON or XML. Deserialized into rows/records on read and serialized from source records on write. Sequences Generate surrogate keys for rows created by inbound syncs. TextMessage is specific to Jms and Sequences to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
MapMessage Body of typed name/value pairs that maps directly onto record fields, so no custom body parsing is needed on read or write. Follower Databases Heroku-managed read replicas usable as low-impact sync sources. MapMessage is specific to Jms and Follower Databases to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
BytesMessage Raw binary body for files, protobuf, or opaque payloads; passed through as a byte stream when structured field mapping is not required. Tables Standard Postgres tables; the primary two-way sync target for app data. BytesMessage is specific to Jms and Tables to Postgres Heroku — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Jms and Postgres Heroku

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.

Jms Postgres Heroku 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 Postgres Heroku as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Postgres Heroku Jms Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Postgres Heroku for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Trigger-based capture or polling in most configurations.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.).
  • Postgres Heroku: No API rate limits; connection counts and performance are bounded by the Heroku Postgres plan.

How the Jms and Postgres Heroku connectors work

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.).

Postgres Heroku

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (standard PostgreSQL)
Authentication
Database credentials from the Heroku DATABASE_URL config var; SSL required
Change detection
Trigger-based capture or polling in most configurations; log-based logical replication availability depends on plan and Heroku's managed server settings
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API rate limits; connection counts and performance are bounded by the Heroku Postgres plan
