Why teams connect Akeneo and Starburst Enterprise

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

Starburst Enterprise 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, Views, Materialized views in Starburst Enterprise with Families and family variants, Reference entities and records, Assets, Channels and locales 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 Consolidate reads from multiple databases behind a single connection instead of maintaining one integration per source
  • 02 Write curated or reconciled results back to lakehouse tables through connectors that support inserts
  • 03 Two-way sync Products and product models with an operational Postgres database or ERP so SKUs, prices, and localized descriptions stay aligned across systems.
  • 04 Push enriched Products and their Assets into an ecommerce storefront or commerce database when product.created and product.updated webhooks fire.

Common sync patterns

Inventory and order status reconciled

Stock levels and order or fulfillment status move between Starburst Enterprise 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 Starburst Enterprise as they change, so dashboards and models read current data instead of last night's export.

What you can sync between Akeneo and Starburst Enterprise

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 Starburst Enterprise objects How this pairing syncs
Channels and locales Target-market settings that scope attribute values; read to resolve which localized or channel-specific value to map on each side of a sync. Columns Typed per the Trino type system, mapped from each source's native types. Channels and locales is specific to Akeneo and Columns to Starburst Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Media files Product images and files uploaded via the media endpoint; referenced by products and pushed to downstream commerce and content systems. Catalogs Each catalog maps to a connector (Iceberg, Hive, PostgreSQL, and others) exposing an external source. Media files is specific to Akeneo and Catalogs to Starburst Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Schemas Namespaces within a catalog, mirroring the underlying source's databases or schemas. Products is specific to Akeneo and Schemas to Starburst Enterprise — 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. Tables Queryable relations; writes pass through to sources whose connectors support them. Product models is specific to Akeneo and Tables to Starburst Enterprise — 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. Views Engine-level SQL views used to shape federated data before syncing it out. Categories is specific to Akeneo and Views to Starburst Enterprise — 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. Materialized views Precomputed results that make repeated sync reads cheaper. Attributes is specific to Akeneo and Materialized views to Starburst Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Akeneo and Starburst Enterprise

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 Starburst Enterprise 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 Starburst Enterprise as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Starburst Enterprise Akeneo Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Starburst Enterprise for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Query-based polling.

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.
  • Starburst Enterprise: Throughput is governed by cluster sizing and resource groups rather than API quotas.

How the Akeneo and Starburst Enterprise 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

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.

Starburst Enterprise

Integration surface
ANSI SQL over JDBC/ODBC drivers and the Trino client REST protocol
Authentication
Deployment-dependent: username/password, LDAP, OAuth 2.0, or Kerberos
Change detection
Query-based polling; Starburst is a query engine and exposes no change log of its own
Capabilities
