Why teams connect Apache Cassandra and Shipwire

Give your engineers Shipwire'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 Receivings, Returns, Purchase Orders, Trackings from Shipwire into Apache Cassandra 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 Apache Cassandra, 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 Consolidate data from multiple keyspaces or clusters into one reporting store.
  • 02 Replicate high-volume event or profile tables from Cassandra into a warehouse for analytics that CQL cannot express.
  • 03 Read Stock levels per warehouse into an operational database or storefront so availability and backorder state reflect real inventory.
  • 04 Sync Receivings (advance ship notices) and reconcile them against Purchase Orders so inbound supplier shipments are visible as they land.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools and automations without API code

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

React to store changes

Updates in Shipwire arrive as row changes in Apache Cassandra, 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 Apache Cassandra sync back onto Shipwire, so the storefront shows what your systems treat as true.

What you can sync between Apache Cassandra 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.

Apache Cassandra objects Shipwire objects How this pairing syncs
Collections List, set, and map columns handled with type-aware field mapping. Receivings Inbound advance ship notices (ASNs) from suppliers; created and updated via API and reconciled against Purchase Orders as inventory arrives at a warehouse. Collections is specific to Apache Cassandra and Receivings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Counters Increment-only counter columns, usually read-only in syncs. Returns Return orders raised against existing Orders; created via API and read back into support or analytics systems for reverse-logistics tracking. Counters is specific to Apache Cassandra and Returns to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Keyspaces Top-level namespaces with replication settings that scope a sync connection. Purchase Orders B2B orders with retailer-specific routing and compliance fields; managed via API alongside receivings for wholesale and marketplace fulfillment. Keyspaces is specific to Apache Cassandra and Purchase Orders to Shipwire — 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. Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. Tables is specific to Apache Cassandra and Trackings to Shipwire — 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. 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. Partitions and Rows is specific to Apache Cassandra and Rates to Shipwire — 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. 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. Materialized Views is specific to Apache Cassandra and Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Cassandra 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.

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

Shipwire Apache Cassandra 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 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.
  • 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.
