Why teams connect Amazon RDS and Shipwire

Give your engineers Shipwire'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 Receivings, Returns, Purchase Orders, Trackings from Shipwire into Amazon RDS and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Shipwire 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 Shipwire 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 Sync Receivings (advance ship notices) and reconcile them against Purchase Orders so inbound supplier shipments are visible as they land.
  • 04 Pull Returns and tracking.delivered events into a support or analytics database for reverse-logistics and delivery-SLA reporting.

Common sync patterns

Keep catalog and inventory current

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

Order data where your code can use it

Orders and their status become rows in Amazon RDS for routing, fulfillment, and reporting, without polling the platform.

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from Amazon RDS back into Shipwire, keeping the store authoritative on what it owns.

What you can sync between Amazon RDS and Shipwire

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 Shipwire objects How this pairing syncs
Read Replicas Low-impact read endpoints often used as the source side of a sync. Rates Shipping cost quotes for a cart or order; read-only, called at checkout time to estimate carrier costs rather than synced as stored records. Read Replicas is specific to Amazon RDS and Rates to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures Engine-specific logic that can react to synced rows. Orders B2C fulfillment orders (create, update, cancel, get) with item, hold, routing, and tracking subresources; typically written from a storefront or ERP and synced back with status and trackings. Stored Procedures is specific to Amazon RDS and Orders to Shipwire — 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. Products Catalog SKUs including kits, virtual kits, and marketplace products; created and edited via API, commonly mastered in a PIM or ERP and pushed into Shipwire with dimensions and pricing. Databases is specific to Amazon RDS and Products to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables. Stock Real-time per-warehouse inventory levels; read-only, pulled into a database or storefront so availability reflects on-hand and backordered quantities. Schemas is specific to Amazon RDS and Stock to Shipwire — 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. Receivings Inbound advance ship notices (ASNs) from suppliers; created and updated via API and reconciled against Purchase Orders as inventory arrives at a warehouse. Tables is specific to Amazon RDS and Receivings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Returns Return orders raised against existing Orders; created via API and read back into support or analytics systems for reverse-logistics tracking. Views is specific to Amazon RDS and Returns to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon RDS and Shipwire

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

Shipwire Amazon RDS Sub-second propagation

DetectionShipwire notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 signed, near real-time) on order, tracking, stock, receiving, return, and product topics.

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.
  • Shipwire: No published per-second request cap; list responses page at 20 items (recommended max ~200) and webhook payloads carry at most 20 items per resource, so large records must be paged via the response next links.
