Why teams connect CockroachDB and Ramp

Work with Ramp's financial data straight from CockroachDB: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Funds (Spend Controls), General Ledger Accounts, Transactions, Cards from Ramp into Schemas, Tables, Views, Indexes in CockroachDB and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against CockroachDB, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Ramp with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync Transactions and their accounting codings with a Postgres warehouse so finance analyzes spend in SQL and pushes GL categories and memos back to Ramp.
  • 02 Mirror Bills and their approval and payment state into an AP or ERP system, marking each one ready-to-sync then synced to keep both ledgers reconciled.
  • 03 Use changefeeds to propagate row changes from a multi-region cluster into a warehouse or search index.
  • 04 Keep reference data consistent between CockroachDB and regional application databases.

Common sync patterns

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on CockroachDB; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Ramp.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in CockroachDB propagate into Ramp, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Ramp appear in CockroachDB as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

What you can sync between CockroachDB and Ramp

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.

CockroachDB objects Ramp objects How this pairing syncs
Sequences ID generators that matter when writes originate from an external system. Reimbursements Out-of-pocket expense claims; read for reporting and marked ready-to-sync then synced to the ERP. Sequences is specific to CockroachDB and Reimbursements to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Changefeeds Built-in CDC streams that emit row-level changes to external sinks. Bills Accounts-payable bills; created, updated, approved, and paid, then posted ready-to-sync and synced to accounting. Changefeeds is specific to CockroachDB and Bills to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical containers a sync connects to, addressed like PostgreSQL databases. Vendors Supplier records under the accounting namespace; uploaded and updated for AP matching and payments. Databases is specific to CockroachDB and Vendors to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables from application tables. Funds (Spend Controls) Spend controls governing card usage; read and created via the funds API to enforce budgets per user, department, or program. Schemas is specific to CockroachDB and Funds (Spend Controls) to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The core read/write target; rows sync bi-directionally with SaaS objects or other databases. General Ledger Accounts Chart-of-accounts entries uploaded from the ERP; accounting codings are posted back against transactions and bills. Tables is specific to CockroachDB and General Ledger Accounts to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used as curated sync sources. Transactions Card purchase records with merchant, amount, and state; read for spend/GL sync and written back via accounting codings and sync status. Views is specific to CockroachDB and Transactions to Ramp — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between CockroachDB and Ramp

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.

CockroachDB Ramp Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in CockroachDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. CDC via changefeeds, which stream row-level changes.

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

Ramp CockroachDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionRamp notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Signed webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 X-Ramp-Signature) for bill, transaction, reimbursement, vendor, and user events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • CockroachDB: No API rate limits in the SaaS sense; throughput is bounded by cluster capacity.
  • Ramp: 200 requests per 10-second rolling window per source IP; exceeding it returns 429 Too Many Requests, and requests running over 60 seconds return 504. Results use keyset pagination (follow the page.next URL / start cursor); higher limits can be requested from support.
