Why teams connect Azure Cosmos DB and Seismic

Treat Seismic like part of your database: its records live in Azure Cosmos DB as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in Azure Cosmos DB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Users, User Groups, Teamsites, LiveSend Links from Seismic into Partition keys, Change feed entries, Stored procedures and triggers, Databases in Azure Cosmos DB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Seismic with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • 01 Extract content-interaction and LiveSend engagement from the Reporting API v2 into a warehouse to tie asset views to CRM Opportunities.
  • 02 Sync Library Content metadata and Custom Property Schemas with a DAM or PIM so one taxonomy governs assets across systems.
  • 03 Two-way sync between a Cosmos DB-backed product catalog and a PIM or commerce platform.
  • 04 Consolidate documents from multiple containers into a single reporting store.

Common sync patterns

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Azure Cosmos DB sync onto the matching records in Seismic, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Seismic API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Seismic arrive as row changes in Azure Cosmos DB, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

What you can sync between Azure Cosmos DB and Seismic

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.

Azure Cosmos DB objects Seismic objects How this pairing syncs
Databases Top-level namespaces that scope containers and throughput provisioning. Content Versions Version history for a library item; new versions upload via API and old ones expire, with events firing on ContentManager webhooks. Databases is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and Content Versions to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Containers The unit of partitioning and throughput; each container maps to a synced collection. Users User records managed through SCIM 2.0 and legacy user endpoints; created, updated, and deactivated for provisioning sync. Containers is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and Users to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items (JSON documents) Schema-flexible JSON records read and written during sync; nested structures are flattened or mapped as needed. User Groups Group definitions and membership that govern content access; synced from an IdP or HRIS to keep permissions current. Items (JSON documents) is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and User Groups to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partition keys Determine data distribution and must be included on writes for the sync to route items correctly. Teamsites Tenant-scoped workspace partitions organizing Library content, permissions, and config; scoped by teamSiteId on most content calls. Partition keys is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and Teamsites to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Change feed entries Ordered record of inserts and updates per partition, consumed for incremental sync. LiveSend Links Trackable content-share links created via the engagement API; their open and view engagement is read back through Reporting. Change feed entries is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and LiveSend Links to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored procedures and triggers Server-side logic scoped to a partition; relevant when writes must respect existing validation. Digital Sales Rooms Buyer-facing microsites (DSRs); lifecycle and content-change events surface via webhooks, currently marked Early Access. Stored procedures and triggers is specific to Azure Cosmos DB and Digital Sales Rooms to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Cosmos DB and Seismic

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.

Azure Cosmos DB Seismic Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Azure Cosmos DB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Built-in change feed exposing inserts and updates in order within each partition key range.

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

Seismic Azure Cosmos DB Sub-second propagation

DetectionSeismic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for content, version, user, group, workflow, DSR, and LiveSend events.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Azure Cosmos DB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Seismic: Tiered per-endpoint limits over a rolling 60-second window; exceeding returns HTTP 429, with X-Seismic-Remaining-Calls and X-Seismic-Total-Calls headers.
