Why teams connect Apache Cassandra and Magento

Give your engineers Magento's products, orders, and customers in Apache Cassandra: 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 Categories, Orders, Customers, Inventory source items (MSI) from Magento into Apache Cassandra 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 Apache Cassandra, 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 Feed Cassandra change streams into search indexes or caches that must track the source of truth.
  • 02 Consolidate data from multiple keyspaces or clusters into one reporting store.
  • 03 Read new Orders to trigger provisioning, accounting, or 3PL fulfillment in an operational database as they are placed.
  • 04 Sync Orders, invoices, and shipments from Magento into Postgres or a warehouse for revenue, margin, and fulfillment-SLA reporting.

Common sync patterns

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from Apache Cassandra back into Magento, keeping the store authoritative on what it owns.

Read the store's data with a query

Records from Magento, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, live in Apache Cassandra 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 Magento API, rate limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Apache Cassandra 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.

Apache Cassandra objects Magento objects How this pairing syncs
Secondary Indexes Optional indexes that allow filtered reads outside the partition key. 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. Secondary Indexes is specific to Apache Cassandra and Configurable / variant products to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
User-Defined Types Composite column types that syncs must flatten or map to structured fields. Categories Catalog tree and product-to-category assignments; written into Magento to control merchandising and read out for taxonomy reporting. User-Defined Types is specific to Apache Cassandra and Categories to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Collections List, set, and map columns handled with type-aware field mapping. Orders Sales orders with line items, totals, and status; typically read out of Magento into a warehouse or ERP for fulfillment and revenue reporting. Collections is specific to Apache Cassandra and Orders to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Counters Increment-only counter columns, usually read-only in syncs. Customers Customer accounts and address book; synced two-way with a CRM so order history and contact records stay consistent. Counters is specific to Apache Cassandra and Customers to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Keyspaces Top-level namespaces with replication settings that scope a sync connection. Inventory source items (MSI) Per-source stock quantities under Multi-Source Inventory; written from a WMS/ERP so storefront stock matches the warehouse. Keyspaces is specific to Apache Cassandra and Inventory source items (MSI) to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Wide-column tables addressed by partition key, the unit of row-level sync. Invoices Invoice documents tied to orders; read out for finance and revenue recognition, or created via the sales API when billing downstream. Tables is specific to Apache Cassandra and Invoices to Magento — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Cassandra 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.

Apache Cassandra Magento Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Apache Cassandra are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Commit-log based CDC on tables with CDC enabled, or polling using writetime metadata and timestamp columns.

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

Magento Apache Cassandra 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 written to Apache Cassandra through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Cassandra: No API quotas; throughput is governed by cluster capacity and consistency-level choices.
  • 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.
