Why teams connect Apache Cassandra and Pigment

Work with Pigment's financial data straight from Apache Cassandra: 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 Scenarios, Data imports, Users and permissions, Applications from Pigment into Secondary Indexes, User-Defined Types, Collections, Counters in Apache Cassandra and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against Apache Cassandra, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Pigment with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Export approved budgets and forecasts back to a warehouse or Postgres for downstream reporting.
  • 02 Keep dimension lists such as departments and cost centers consistent with master data in the ERP.
  • 03 Feed Cassandra change streams into search indexes or caches that must track the source of truth.
  • 04 Consolidate data from multiple keyspaces or clusters into one reporting store.

Common sync patterns

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in Apache Cassandra propagate into Pigment, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Pigment appear in Apache Cassandra as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Pigment live in Apache Cassandra as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

What you can sync between Apache Cassandra and Pigment

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 Pigment objects How this pairing syncs
Tables Wide-column tables addressed by partition key, the unit of row-level sync. Tables Row-based transactional data loaded into models from source systems Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Collections List, set, and map columns handled with type-aware field mapping. Users and permissions Access controls governing which model areas a sync can touch Collections is specific to Apache Cassandra and Users and permissions to Pigment — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Counters Increment-only counter columns, usually read-only in syncs. Applications Planning models organized by domain such as finance, sales, or workforce Counters is specific to Apache Cassandra and Applications to Pigment — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Keyspaces Top-level namespaces with replication settings that scope a sync connection. Metrics Multidimensional values holding plans and actuals; the main target for inbound data Keyspaces is specific to Apache Cassandra and Metrics to Pigment — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions and Rows Records located by partition and clustering keys during reads and upserts. Dimension lists Master data like accounts, products, or employees that metrics are sliced by Partitions and Rows is specific to Apache Cassandra and Dimension lists to Pigment — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Server-maintained denormalized views; considered experimental and disabled by default in recent releases. Scenarios Versions such as budget, forecast, and actuals that give exported figures their context Materialized Views is specific to Apache Cassandra and Scenarios to Pigment — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Cassandra and Pigment

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

Pigment Apache Cassandra Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Pigment for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No change feed.

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.
  • Pigment: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
