Why teams connect Amazon RDS and Magento

Give your engineers Magento's products, orders, and customers in Amazon RDS: 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 Invoices, Shipments, Carts / quotes, Products from Magento into Amazon RDS and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Magento holds, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Amazon RDS, such as new prices, stock levels, or fulfillment status, sync back into Magento 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 Mirror SaaS objects into RDS tables so product features can join business data with application data in one query
  • 02 Keep an RDS reporting database hydrated from operational tools without maintaining ETL jobs
  • 03 Keep MSI inventory source-item quantities aligned between a WMS/ERP and Magento so storefront stock matches the warehouse.
  • 04 Read new Orders to trigger provisioning, accounting, or 3PL fulfillment in an operational database as they are placed.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools and automations without API code

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

React to store changes

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

Keep catalog and inventory current

Prices, stock levels, or product details maintained in Amazon RDS sync back onto Magento, so the storefront shows what your systems treat as true.

What you can sync between Amazon RDS and Magento

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 RDS objects Magento objects How this pairing syncs
Stored Procedures Engine-specific logic that can react to synced rows. Configurable / variant products Parent configurable products link to simple product variants by attribute; synced so size/color SKUs and their prices stay aligned with source systems. Stored Procedures is specific to Amazon RDS and Configurable / variant products to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Engine-level databases on the instance that scope a sync's reads and writes. Categories Catalog tree and product-to-category assignments; written into Magento to control merchandising and read out for taxonomy reporting. Databases is specific to Amazon RDS and Categories to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables. Orders Sales orders with line items, totals, and status; typically read out of Magento into a warehouse or ERP for fulfillment and revenue reporting. Schemas is specific to Amazon RDS and Orders to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The core sync target; rows map to records in connected SaaS systems. Customers Customer accounts and address book; synced two-way with a CRM so order history and contact records stay consistent. Tables is specific to Amazon RDS and Customers to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Inventory source items (MSI) Per-source stock quantities under Multi-Source Inventory; written from a WMS/ERP so storefront stock matches the warehouse. Views is specific to Amazon RDS and Inventory source items (MSI) to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Columns Field-level mapping targets, typed per the underlying engine. Invoices Invoice documents tied to orders; read out for finance and revenue recognition, or created via the sales API when billing downstream. Columns is specific to Amazon RDS and Invoices to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon RDS and Magento

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 RDS Magento Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon RDS are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Engine-native log-based CDC: MySQL/MariaDB binlog, PostgreSQL logical replication, SQL Server CDC.

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

Magento Amazon RDS Sub-second propagation

DetectionMagento notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling with searchCriteria filters on updated_at (catalog, sales, and customer entities carry created_at/updated_at).

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon RDS: No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance class, storage IOPS, and connection limits.
  • Magento: No fixed request-per-minute cap on PaaS/on-prem; responses page via searchCriteria pageSize/currentPage under a default maximum page size of 300 (Web API Input Limits), with /async/bulk endpoints for large writes.
