Why teams connect Amazon DynamoDB and NetSuite

Give your engineers NetSuite's data in Amazon DynamoDB: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors All custom objects, Nexus, Tax Type, Sales Tax Item from NetSuite into Amazon DynamoDB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever NetSuite is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Amazon DynamoDB sync back into NetSuite with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror a high-write DynamoDB table into a relational database so teams can join NoSQL application data against relational tables for reporting.
  • 02 Use DynamoDB Streams as a change-data-capture source to push item INSERT, MODIFY, and REMOVE events into a CRM, search index, or operational database in near-real-time.
  • 03 Expose item and inventory data to internal applications through a continuously synced database table.
  • 04 Mirror journal entries and transaction lines into a warehouse for financial reporting without CSV exports.

Common sync patterns

Read ERP records with a query

Records from NetSuite live in Amazon DynamoDB 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 NetSuite interface, limits, and retries.

React to ERP changes

Updates in NetSuite arrive as row changes in Amazon DynamoDB, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

What you can sync between Amazon DynamoDB and NetSuite

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 DynamoDB objects NetSuite objects How this pairing syncs
Local secondary indexes (LSIs) Extra sort keys within the same partition key, defined at table creation; queried like the base table for alternate access patterns. Bin Transfer Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Local secondary indexes (LSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Bin Transfer to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
DynamoDB Streams Ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with old/new image views and 24-hour retention; the native change-data-capture source Stacksync reads for near-real-time sync. Currency Rate Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. DynamoDB Streams is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Currency Rate to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Global Tables Multi-region, active-active replicas of a table kept in sync by DynamoDB; each region is read and written locally with last-writer-wins conflict resolution. Price Level Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Global Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Price Level to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Time to Live (TTL) Per-item expiry timestamps; DynamoDB deletes expired items in the background and emits a Streams REMOVE record for each deletion. Term Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Time to Live (TTL) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Term to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Top-level containers, each with a partition key and optional sort key; Stacksync syncs a table as a stream of items with full read and write via PutItem, UpdateItem, and DeleteItem. Subsidiary Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Subsidiary to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items Individual schemaless records (attributes up to 400 KB each); read with GetItem, Query, and Scan and written with PutItem or BatchWriteItem, so write is supported here. All custom objects Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Items is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and All custom objects to NetSuite — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon DynamoDB and NetSuite

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 DynamoDB NetSuite Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon DynamoDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. DynamoDB Streams emit ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with KEYS_ONLY, NEW_IMAGE, OLD_IMAGE, or NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES views.

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

NetSuite Amazon DynamoDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls NetSuite for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on lastModifiedDate via SuiteQL or saved searches.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon DynamoDB: Throughput is metered in read/write capacity units (provisioned or on-demand): 1 WCU = one 1 KB write per second, 1 RCU = one strongly-consistent 4 KB read per second. Exceeding capacity or the ~3,000 RCU / 1,000 WCU per-partition ceiling returns ProvisionedThroughputExceededException with throttling.
  • NetSuite: API concurrency is governed per account; sync tools queue and throttle requests.

How the Amazon DynamoDB and NetSuite connectors work

Amazon DynamoDB

Integration surface
AWS SDK / low-level HTTPS JSON API at dynamodb.<region>.amazonaws.com (PutItem, GetItem, UpdateItem, DeleteItem, Query, Scan, BatchWriteItem, TransactWriteItems), plus PartiQL (ExecuteStatement) for SQL-style access and DynamoDB Streams for change capture.
Authentication
AWS Signature Version 4 (SigV4) signed requests using an IAM access key ID and secret key, or temporary STS credentials from an assumed IAM role; IAM policies scope access down to table and item level.
Change detection
DynamoDB Streams emit ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with KEYS_ONLY, NEW_IMAGE, OLD_IMAGE, or NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES views and 24-hour retention, read via shard iterators (or Kinesis Data Streams for longer retention). No native HTTP webhooks.
