Why teams connect Citus and Infor LN

Give your engineers Infor LN's data in Citus: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Warehouse / inventory, Projects, Service orders, Items from Infor LN into Citus and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Infor LN is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Citus sync back into Infor LN with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate per-tenant rows from distributed tables into per-customer reporting databases.
  • 02 Sync high-volume event or tenant data from a Citus cluster into a warehouse for cross-tenant analytics.
  • 03 Run a two-way sync of business partners between LN and a CRM so sales and manufacturing share account data.
  • 04 Keep inventory positions aligned between LN and distribution or aftermarket service systems.

Common sync patterns

Read ERP records with a query

Records from Infor LN live in Citus 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 Infor LN interface, limits, and retries.

React to ERP changes

Updates in Infor LN arrive as row changes in Citus, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

What you can sync between Citus and Infor LN

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.

Citus objects Infor LN objects How this pairing syncs
Distributed tables Tables sharded across worker nodes by a distribution column; the main sync target for large datasets. Warehouse / inventory Stock positions exposed so external channels reflect real availability. Distributed tables is specific to Citus and Warehouse / inventory to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reference tables Small lookup tables replicated to every node, synced like ordinary Postgres tables. Projects Project structures used in engineer-to-order manufacturing scenarios. Reference tables is specific to Citus and Projects to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Local tables Coordinator-only tables that behave exactly like standard PostgreSQL tables. Service orders Aftermarket service documents synced with field service tools. Local tables is specific to Citus and Service orders to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Standard Postgres namespaces used to scope what a sync user can read and write. Items Manufacturing item masters synced to PLM, MES, and commerce systems. Schemas is specific to Citus and Items to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Curated projections over distributed data, often used as read-only sync sources. Bills of material Product structures shared with engineering and planning tools. Views is specific to Citus and Bills of material to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences Key generators that matter when external writes must not collide with application inserts. Business partners LN's unified customer/supplier records matched against CRM accounts. Sequences is specific to Citus and Business partners to Infor LN — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Citus and Infor LN

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.

Citus Infor LN Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Citus are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. PostgreSQL logical decoding / CDC, with caveats: changes to distributed tables occur on worker shards, so CDC setup differs from single-node Postgres.

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

Infor LN Citus Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Infor LN for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Event-style BOD publications through Infor ION where configured.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Infor LN: Subject to the ION API gateway's tenant rate limits in cloud deployments.
