Why teams connect ClickHouse and Shipwire

Make ClickHouse the analytics and enrichment layer behind Shipwire: orders, products, and customers stay current in both directions.

ClickHouse is the analytical store where the business joins, models, and reports on its data; Shipwire runs the storefront, catalog, and transactions that generate most of it. The overlap is every record that has to be counted and enriched on one side and acted on the other — and when the bridge is a nightly export, the warehouse reports on yesterday while the store operates without the segments and metrics the warehouse just computed.

Stacksync syncs Dictionaries, Tables (MergeTree family), Databases, Views in ClickHouse with Returns, Purchase Orders, Trackings, Rates in Shipwire field by field, in real time, and in both directions. Transactional records land in the warehouse as they change, computed attributes and cleaned catalog data flow back to the store, and you decide which system owns which fields so Stacksync resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate logs and business records from multiple sources into MergeTree tables for retention and reporting.
  • 02 Land product event data alongside synced CRM accounts so analysts join usage and revenue in one place.
  • 03 Push Products, kits, and their dimensions and pricing from a PIM or ERP into the Shipwire catalog and keep SKUs aligned.
  • 04 Read Stock levels per warehouse into an operational database or storefront so availability and backorder state reflect real inventory.

Common sync patterns

Live analytics on store activity

Orders, products, and customer records from Shipwire land in ClickHouse as they change, so dashboards and models read current data instead of last night's export.

Where Shipwire accepts writes: push computed attributes back

Segments, lifetime value, and scores built in ClickHouse write onto the matching records in Shipwire, so merchandising and messaging act on warehouse logic.

One product catalog

Where both systems hold product or catalog data, cleaned and enriched attributes stay aligned so the store and the warehouse describe the same items.

What you can sync between ClickHouse 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.

ClickHouse objects Shipwire objects How this pairing syncs
Dictionaries In-memory lookup structures refreshed from external sources, sometimes fed by syncs. Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. Dictionaries is specific to ClickHouse and Trackings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables (MergeTree family) Columnar, append-optimized tables that serve as the destination for high-volume sync loads. 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. Tables (MergeTree family) is specific to ClickHouse and Rates to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Namespaces that group tables and scope permissions for sync users. 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. Databases is specific to ClickHouse and Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Saved queries used as curated, read-only sync sources. Products Catalog SKUs including kits, virtual kits, and marketplace products; created and edited via API, commonly mastered in a PIM or ERP and pushed into Shipwire with dimensions and pricing. Views is specific to ClickHouse and Products to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized views Insert-time transformations that reshape incoming synced rows into aggregates. Stock Real-time per-warehouse inventory levels; read-only, pulled into a database or storefront so availability reflects on-hand and backordered quantities. Materialized views is specific to ClickHouse and Stock to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Distributed tables Query-routing tables over cluster shards in self-managed deployments. Receivings Inbound advance ship notices (ASNs) from suppliers; created and updated via API and reconciled against Purchase Orders as inventory arrives at a warehouse. Distributed tables is specific to ClickHouse and Receivings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between ClickHouse 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.

ClickHouse Shipwire Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls ClickHouse for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No log-based CDC for consumers.

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

Shipwire ClickHouse 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 applied to ClickHouse as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
