Why teams connect AWS S3 and Recurly

Land the financial records from Recurly in AWS S3 continuously, and write results back, without building or maintaining a pipeline.

Finance data belongs in the warehouse: revenue, invoices, payments, and customers joined with everything else the business measures. Getting it there usually means an extraction pipeline that breaks quietly and delivers yesterday's numbers.

Stacksync syncs Coupons and Redemptions, Billing Info, Measured Units and Usage, Accounts from Recurly into tables in AWS S3 in real time, and the connection works in both directions: values computed in AWS S3 can be written back to fields in Recurly where you want them operational. Schema changes are handled, API limits are managed, and the sync is something you configure rather than code you maintain.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Accounts and Subscriptions bi-directionally with Postgres so product and provisioning systems read live entitlement state and write plan or seat changes back to Recurly.
  • 02 Trigger revenue-recognition or ERP entries when new_subscription and canceled_subscription webhooks fire.
  • 03 Ingest partner or vendor file drops (CSV, JSON, Parquet) from a bucket into a database or CRM as records.
  • 04 Export synced operational data to S3 as files feeding a data lake or downstream batch jobs.

Common sync patterns

Revenue joined with everything else

Analysts combine Recurly's financial records with product, marketing, or operational data already in AWS S3 for reporting the finance system cannot do alone.

Write-back of computed fields

Scores or segments computed in AWS S3, like payment-risk flags or customer tiers, sync back onto records in Recurly where the finance team can act on them.

Queryable history for audit and reconciliation

A continuously synced copy in AWS S3 gives you a durable, queryable record of financial data for month-end and audit questions.

What you can sync between AWS S3 and Recurly

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.

AWS S3 objects Recurly objects How this pairing syncs
Buckets Top-level containers a sync targets; region and policy are set at this level. Plans The product and pricing catalog (plan codes, intervals, add-ons); usually mastered in Recurly and read out, or mirrored from a product database. Buckets is specific to AWS S3 and Plans to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Objects The stored files (CSV, JSON, Parquet); syncs read them as datasets or write exports into them. Invoices Charge and credit billing documents; read-heavy for revenue reporting, and creatable through Purchases for one-off charges. Objects is specific to AWS S3 and Invoices to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Prefixes Key-name paths used to partition synced datasets, since S3 has no real directories. Transactions Individual payment attempts — captures, refunds, and voids; typically read into a warehouse for reconciliation and dunning analysis. Prefixes is specific to AWS S3 and Transactions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object Metadata System and user-defined metadata read alongside object contents. Line Items One-time charges and credits on an account outside a subscription; synced for accurate revenue and adjustment reporting. Object Metadata is specific to AWS S3 and Line Items to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object Versions Prior copies retained when versioning is enabled, relevant for reprocessing. Coupons and Redemptions Discount definitions and their application to accounts and subscriptions; read for discount and promotion analysis. Object Versions is specific to AWS S3 and Coupons and Redemptions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Event Notifications Notifications on object creation or deletion that trigger incremental processing. Billing Info Tokenized payment method (card/ACH) on an account; written when onboarding customers and read for payment-health signals (never stores raw card numbers). Event Notifications is specific to AWS S3 and Billing Info to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between AWS S3 and Recurly

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.

AWS S3 Recurly Sub-second propagation

DetectionAWS S3 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. S3 Event Notifications on object create/delete delivered to SQS, SNS, Lambda, or EventBridge.

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

Recurly AWS S3 Sub-second propagation

DetectionRecurly notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (JSON or XML, one format per endpoint) for account, subscription, payment, and invoice events, plus incremental polling of list endpoints.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • AWS S3: Request throughput scales per prefix; sustained high-volume workloads should spread keys across prefixes.
  • Recurly: Production sites default to 1,000 requests/min with only GET requests counting toward the limit; sandbox sites 400/min with all requests counting; the limit is a sliding 5-minute window, X-RateLimit headers report the quota, and breaches return HTTP 429.
