Why teams connect Databricks and Recurly

Land the financial records from Recurly in Databricks 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 Line Items, Coupons and Redemptions, Billing Info, Measured Units and Usage from Recurly into tables in Databricks in real time, and the connection works in both directions: values computed in Databricks 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 Trigger revenue-recognition or ERP entries when new_subscription and canceled_subscription webhooks fire.
  • 02 Post usage records to Measured Units on metered Subscriptions from a metering database before each bill run.
  • 03 Serve ML feature outputs computed in Databricks to production apps through a synced operational store.
  • 04 Land CRM and ERP records in Delta tables continuously so lakehouse models work from current operational data.

Common sync patterns

Queryable history for audit and reconciliation

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

Finance analytics without ETL

Invoices, payments, and customer records from Recurly arrive in Databricks as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind.

Revenue joined with everything else

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

What you can sync between Databricks 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.

Databricks objects Recurly objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Group tables and views; syncs typically target a dedicated schema per source system. Plans The product and pricing catalog (plan codes, intervals, add-ons); usually mastered in Recurly and read out, or mirrored from a product database. Schemas is specific to Databricks and Plans to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Delta Tables The primary read and write target; operational data lands here as managed or external tables. Invoices Charge and credit billing documents; read-heavy for revenue reporting, and creatable through Purchases for one-off charges. Delta Tables is specific to Databricks and Invoices to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Curated read-only projections used as sync sources for downstream tools. Transactions Individual payment attempts — captures, refunds, and voids; typically read into a warehouse for reconciliation and dunning analysis. Views is specific to Databricks and Transactions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed results read on a schedule for reverse-ETL style syncs. Line Items One-time charges and credits on an account outside a subscription; synced for accurate revenue and adjustment reporting. Materialized Views is specific to Databricks and Line Items to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Volumes Unity Catalog file storage used for staging bulk loads. Coupons and Redemptions Discount definitions and their application to accounts and subscriptions; read for discount and promotion analysis. Volumes is specific to Databricks and Coupons and Redemptions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
SQL Warehouses The compute endpoint a sync connects to for query execution. 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). SQL Warehouses is specific to Databricks and Billing Info to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Databricks 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.

Databricks Recurly Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Databricks are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Delta Lake Change Data Feed for row-level changes.

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Databricks: Throughput depends on the SQL warehouse size; API calls are subject to workspace rate limits.
  • 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.
