Why teams connect Amazon DynamoDB and Stripe

Work with Stripe's financial data straight from Amazon DynamoDB: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Charges, Invoices, Subscriptions, Products from Stripe into Global Tables, Time to Live (TTL), Tables, Items in Amazon DynamoDB and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against Amazon DynamoDB, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Stripe with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Trigger provisioning or deprovisioning in internal systems when subscription status changes
  • 02 Write customer detail updates from internal tools back to Stripe so billing records stay current
  • 03 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.
  • 04 Backfill or migrate records into DynamoDB from another database using BatchWriteItem, then keep the two stores in continuous sync.

Common sync patterns

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Stripe live in Amazon DynamoDB as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on Amazon DynamoDB; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Stripe.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in Amazon DynamoDB propagate into Stripe, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

What you can sync between Amazon DynamoDB and Stripe

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 Stripe objects How this pairing syncs
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. Balance Transactions The ledger entries behind every money movement, the basis for reconciliation. Items is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Balance Transactions to Stripe — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Global secondary indexes (GSIs) Alternate key projections that let you Query by non-key attributes without a full table Scan; read-only views maintained automatically by DynamoDB. Events The change log; each state change is an Event retrievable via the API. Global secondary indexes (GSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Events to Stripe — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Customers The billing identity most teams match against CRM accounts and contacts. Local secondary indexes (LSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Customers to Stripe — 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. PaymentIntents The lifecycle record of a payment attempt, from creation to success or failure. DynamoDB Streams is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and PaymentIntents to Stripe — 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. Charges Individual captured payments underlying intents, used in reconciliation. Global Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Charges to Stripe — 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. Invoices Billing documents with line items, synced to ERPs and accounting systems. Time to Live (TTL) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Invoices to Stripe — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon DynamoDB and Stripe

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 Stripe 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 Stripe through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Stripe Amazon DynamoDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionStripe notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks backed by the Events API.

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.
  • Stripe: Subject to documented per-mode request rate limits; idempotency keys make retries safe.

How the Amazon DynamoDB and Stripe 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.
