Why teams connect Amazon S3 and Extensiv (3PL Central)

Move the documents and data that Extensiv (3PL Central) produces into Amazon S3 as files, and let files stored in Amazon S3 update the records they belong to in Extensiv (3PL Central), continuously and without exports or manual filing.

Extensiv (3PL Central) runs the business on structured records: Orders, Receivers, Shipments, Warehouses. Amazon S3 holds files and the metadata that describes them: Prefixes (folders), Multipart uploads, Buckets, Objects. The two do not share a customer table or an order ledger. What they share is documents. Nearly every record Extensiv (3PL Central) touches produces a file that belongs in storage, whether an invoice, a purchase order, a statement, or a shipping doc, and many files that land in Amazon S3, from signed contracts to vendor bills to receipts, describe a transaction Extensiv (3PL Central) needs to record. Left unconnected, that link is maintained by hand: someone exports a PDF and drags it into a folder, or downloads a file and keys its details into a record.

Stacksync keeps Orders, Receivers, Shipments, Warehouses in Extensiv (3PL Central) and Prefixes (folders), Multipart uploads, Buckets, Objects in Amazon S3 in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. A document and its details, the customer, the type, the date, an amount, an order or invoice number, are mapped field by field, so a file arrives in Amazon S3 already labeled and filed, and metadata captured against a stored file can create or update the matching record in Extensiv (3PL Central). Changes on either side show up within seconds, with conflict resolution in place of nightly exports and manual filing.

The result is that a transaction and the document that backs it stay together. Finance, operations, and audit teams find the file behind a record without digging through folders, and the record in Extensiv (3PL Central) and the file in Amazon S3 never describe two different versions of the same document.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push receiving confirmations back to purchasing systems when inbound stock arrives.
  • 02 Consolidate order and shipment data across 3PL clients into a reporting database for billing and SLA tracking.
  • 03 Two-way sync Object tags with a database so retention or classification labels set in an internal app write back onto S3 objects via the tagging API without rewriting the files.
  • 04 Mirror Objects under a given Bucket and prefix into another bucket, region, or a warehouse external stage for backup or downstream processing.

Common sync patterns

Audit-ready retention

Every transaction's supporting file lives in Amazon S3 beside its metadata, giving finance and audit teams a complete, searchable trail tied back to the record in Extensiv (3PL Central).

Documents filed with their context

Files that Extensiv (3PL Central) produces land in Amazon S3 labeled with the customer, document type, and reference number they belong to, so the right copy is one search away instead of buried in a folder.

Metadata that files itself

Record fields from Extensiv (3PL Central), like customer, date, amount, type, and reference number, become the metadata and tags on the stored file in Amazon S3, so storage stays organized without anyone tagging by hand.

What you can sync between Amazon S3 and Extensiv (3PL Central)

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 S3 objects Extensiv (3PL Central) objects How this pairing syncs
Multipart uploads In-progress large-object uploads assembled from parts; objects above ~100 MB (required above 5 GB) are written this way, and incomplete uploads persist until completed or aborted. Receivers Inbound receiving records (receipts/ASNs) that confirm stock arrival back to purchasing systems. Multipart uploads is specific to Amazon S3 and Receivers to Extensiv (3PL Central) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets Top-level, region-scoped containers that hold objects; enumerated to discover the namespaces and prefixes a sync should cover. Shipments Carrier and tracking details synced back once orders ship. Buckets is specific to Amazon S3 and Shipments to Extensiv (3PL Central) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Objects Files stored under a key; content is read with GET and written with PUT, and each object's key/size/ETag/LastModified is the unit indexed into a database. Warehouses Facility records that partition inventory and order routing. Objects is specific to Amazon S3 and Warehouses to Extensiv (3PL Central) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object metadata System metadata (Content-Type, size, ETag, LastModified) plus user-defined x-amz-meta-* headers; user metadata is fixed at write time and only changeable by rewriting the object. Inventory adjustments Manual stock corrections that reconciliation syncs need to capture. Object metadata is specific to Amazon S3 and Inventory adjustments to Extensiv (3PL Central) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object tags Up to 10 key-value tags per object, mutable in place via the tagging API independent of content, so classification and retention labels sync two-way without rewriting files. Customers The 3PL's clients; nearly every other record is scoped to one, so syncs carry customer context on each call. Object tags is specific to Amazon S3 and Customers to Extensiv (3PL Central) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object versions When bucket versioning is enabled every write creates a new version ID; prior versions and delete markers are readable for history and audit syncs. Items SKU masters kept aligned between the merchant's systems and the warehouse. Object versions is specific to Amazon S3 and Items to Extensiv (3PL Central) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon S3 and Extensiv (3PL Central)

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 S3 Extensiv (3PL Central) Sub-second propagation

DetectionAmazon S3 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. S3 Event Notifications push object-created, object-removed, and object-tagging events to SNS, SQS, Lambda, or EventBridge.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Extensiv (3PL Central) through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Extensiv (3PL Central) Amazon S3 Sub-second propagation

DetectionExtensiv (3PL Central) notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook events for order, receipt, item, and inventory changes, with polling on modified-date filters as a fallback.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Amazon S3 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon S3: S3 sustains at least 3,500 PUT/COPY/POST/DELETE and 5,500 GET/HEAD requests per second per partitioned prefix and scales higher automatically; bursts can return HTTP 503 SlowDown while it repartitions.
  • Extensiv (3PL Central): Subject to the platform's API rate limits; batch endpoints reduce call volume for order and inventory syncs.
