Why teams connect Akeneo and Greenplum

Make Greenplum the analytics and enrichment layer behind Akeneo: orders, products, and customers stay current in both directions.

Greenplum is the analytical store where the business joins, models, and reports on its data; Akeneo runs the storefront, catalog, and transactions that generate most of it. The overlap is every record that has to be counted and enriched on one side and acted on the other — and when the bridge is a nightly export, the warehouse reports on yesterday while the store operates without the segments and metrics the warehouse just computed.

Stacksync syncs Schemas, Tables, Partitions, Views in Greenplum with Categories, Attributes, Families and family variants, Reference entities and records in Akeneo field by field, in real time, and in both directions. Transactional records land in the warehouse as they change, computed attributes and cleaned catalog data flow back to the store, and you decide which system owns which fields so Stacksync resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Publish segments, scores, and aggregates computed in Greenplum back into business tools where teams act on them.
  • 02 Keep Greenplum and a cloud warehouse in sync during a migration so both platforms serve consistent data.
  • 03 Read Reference entities records such as brands and manufacturers into a data warehouse for cross-catalog reporting.
  • 04 Mirror Products and completeness data into a warehouse to track enrichment progress by channel and locale without manual CSV exports.

Common sync patterns

Inventory and order status reconciled

Stock levels and order or fulfillment status move between Greenplum and Akeneo so counts and states agree across reporting and operations.

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer records, corrections in either propagate to the other so analytics and the storefront share one identity.

Live analytics on store activity

Orders, products, and customer records from Akeneo land in Greenplum as they change, so dashboards and models read current data instead of last night's export.

What you can sync between Akeneo and Greenplum

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.

Akeneo objects Greenplum objects How this pairing syncs
Products Core catalog records addressed by UUID (recommended) or identifier/SKU; synced two-way with databases, ERPs, and storefronts. Values are scoped per channel and locale. External tables Reference external files for bulk load paths alongside row-level syncs. Products is specific to Akeneo and External tables to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Product models Parent records for configurable products; hold shared attribute values that cascade to their variant products, synced alongside Products. Rows Read and written by key; distribution keys determine where rows live. Product models is specific to Akeneo and Rows to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Categories The category tree used to classify products; read out for storefront navigation or written in from an ERP to seed catalog structure. Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Categories is specific to Akeneo and Databases to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attributes Attribute definitions plus attribute options and groups; describe the shape of product data, usually mastered in Akeneo and read downstream. Schemas Namespace tables and control which objects a sync can see. Attributes is specific to Akeneo and Schemas to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Families and family variants Templates defining which attributes a product carries and how variants axis out; synced to keep catalog structure consistent across systems. Tables Heap or append-optimized tables mapped directly to sync targets. Families and family variants is specific to Akeneo and Tables to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reference entities and records Structured lookups like brands, manufacturers, or ingredients with their own records (Enterprise Edition); synced two-way or read into a warehouse for reporting. Partitions Large tables are commonly partitioned by date, which shapes incremental reads. Reference entities and records is specific to Akeneo and Partitions to Greenplum — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Akeneo and Greenplum

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.

Akeneo Greenplum Sub-second propagation

DetectionAkeneo notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API webhooks (product.created, product.updated, product.deleted, plus product-model equivalents.

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

Greenplum Akeneo Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Greenplum 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 Akeneo through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Akeneo: REST protection triggers above roughly 100 requests/second per PIM instance (HTTP 429 with Retry-After); the Events API caps at 4000 requests/hour with a 500ms webhook ack timeout.
  • Greenplum: Bounded by cluster resources and concurrency settings rather than an API quota.

How the Akeneo and Greenplum connectors work

Akeneo

Integration surface
REST API (plus a GraphQL API) and an Events API for webhooks
Authentication
OAuth2 password grant: client_id/secret plus an API user's username/password exchanged at /api/oauth/v1/token for a bearer access_token and refresh_token; Apps use the OAuth2 authorization-code flow
Change detection
Events API webhooks (product.created, product.updated, product.deleted, plus product-model equivalents; product.updated.delta carries old and new values); falls back to polling the 'updated' datetime search filter where the Events API is unavailable
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
REST protection triggers above roughly 100 requests/second per PIM instance (HTTP 429 with Retry-After); the Events API caps at 4000 requests/hour with a 500ms webhook ack timeout.

Greenplum

Integration surface
PostgreSQL wire protocol (libpq), plus JDBC/ODBC drivers
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Polling with timestamp or key-based cursors; Greenplum does not expose logical-decoding CDC
Capabilities
