Why teams connect Amazon Aurora and Bigcommerce

Give your engineers Bigcommerce's products, orders, and customers in Amazon Aurora: read them with normal queries, write inventory and prices back through the sync, and skip the storefront API.

E-commerce data sits behind an API built for the storefront, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for order routing, inventory logic, reporting, or back-office tools, end up writing integration code against a rate-limited API and maintaining it through every catalog change and platform upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Price Lists, Shipments, Products, Variants and SKUs from Bigcommerce into Amazon Aurora and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Bigcommerce holds, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Amazon Aurora, such as new prices, stock levels, or fulfillment status, sync back into Bigcommerce with its validations respected.

Merchandising and operations keep working in the storefront, engineers keep working in the database, and neither side has to reconcile against a nightly export.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate several Aurora clusters into one reporting database.
  • 02 Write enriched or scored records from analytics pipelines back into the Aurora tables that power an application.
  • 03 Push Price Lists from an ERP into BigCommerce to drive customer-group and B2B pricing without manual catalog edits.
  • 04 Two-way sync of Products and Variants between BigCommerce and a PIM or ERP so catalog content, SKUs, and pricing stay aligned across systems.

Common sync patterns

Read the store's data with a query

Records from Bigcommerce, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, live in Amazon Aurora as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Bigcommerce API, rate limits, and retries.

React to store changes

Updates in Bigcommerce arrive as row changes in Amazon Aurora, so jobs and triggers can respond the moment an order, price, or stock level changes.

What you can sync between Amazon Aurora and Bigcommerce

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.

Amazon Aurora objects Bigcommerce objects How this pairing syncs
Primary and Foreign Keys Constraints used to identify records and preserve relational integrity in syncs. Customers V3 customer accounts, customer groups, and addresses; synced two-way with a CRM so storefront and GTM records match. Primary and Foreign Keys is specific to Amazon Aurora and Customers to Bigcommerce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Read Replicas Reader endpoints that syncs can target to keep load off the writer. Categories Catalog V3 category tree; mapped for merchandising and kept aligned with a product master or PIM. Read Replicas is specific to Amazon Aurora and Categories to Bigcommerce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical databases within a cluster that scope a sync connection. Brands Catalog V3 brand records linked to products; kept aligned with a product master or PIM so brand names and pages stay consistent. Databases is specific to Amazon Aurora and Brands to Bigcommerce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces (PostgreSQL) or database-level grouping (MySQL) used in table selection. Inventory Product- or variant-level stock, plus multi-location counts via the V3 Inventory API; written from a WMS to reflect on-hand quantities. Schemas is specific to Amazon Aurora and Inventory to Bigcommerce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational tables synced bi-directionally at row level. Price Lists V3 price lists and records driving customer-group and B2B pricing; pushed from an ERP so tiered prices stay current. Tables is specific to Amazon Aurora and Price Lists to Bigcommerce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only query-backed sources for downstream syncs. Shipments Order shipments with tracking numbers; created in BigCommerce from a 3PL or fulfillment system as packages ship. Views is specific to Amazon Aurora and Shipments to Bigcommerce — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Aurora and Bigcommerce

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.

Amazon Aurora Bigcommerce Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon Aurora are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC: binlog on MySQL-compatible clusters, logical replication/decoding on PostgreSQL-compatible clusters.

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

Bigcommerce Amazon Aurora Sub-second propagation

DetectionBigcommerce notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks push near-real-time events (store/order/*, store/product/*, store/customer/* and more).

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon Aurora: No API rate limits for wire-protocol access; throughput is bounded by instance class and connection limits.
  • Bigcommerce: OAuth quota refreshes every 30 seconds and varies by plan (about 20,000 requests/hour on Standard and Plus, 60,000 on Pro, higher on Enterprise); the X-Rate-Limit-Requests-Left header reports remaining calls.
