Why teams connect DuckDB and Servicemax

Mirror Servicemax's data into DuckDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Servicemax through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in DuckDB.

Stacksync mirrors Work Orders, Work Details, Installed Products, Service Contracts from Servicemax into Database files, Schemas, Tables, Views in DuckDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Servicemax, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror Accounts and Contacts between ServiceMax and the CRM system of record so customer and site data stays consistent.
  • 02 Sync Work Orders (SVMXC__Service_Order__c) and Work Details bi-directionally with Postgres so ops and analytics teams read and write field-service data in plain SQL.
  • 03 Sync SaaS data to Parquet on object storage and query it with DuckDB without standing up a warehouse.
  • 04 Push aggregates computed in DuckDB out to a CRM or business tools so analysis results reach operational systems.

Common sync patterns

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Servicemax with a query

Records from Servicemax are ordinary rows in DuckDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Servicemax from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in DuckDB and Stacksync propagates the change into Servicemax, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between DuckDB and Servicemax

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.

DuckDB objects Servicemax objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize tables in sync outputs. Work Orders SVMXC__Service_Order__c; the core field-service job record for install, repair, and maintenance; synced two-way with databases and pushed to ERPs at close. Schemas is specific to DuckDB and Work Orders to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Columnar tables created via SQL; the destination for materialized sync data. Work Details SVMXC__Service_Order_Line__c; line items on a Work Order for labor, parts used, and expenses; read out for billing or written back with usage. Tables is specific to DuckDB and Work Details to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views used to shape or filter data for downstream consumers. Installed Products SVMXC__Installed_Product__c; the installed-base asset record driving entitlement and service history; synced with asset and IoT databases. Views is specific to DuckDB and Installed Products to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) Files DuckDB queries in place without loading, common as a sync interchange format. Service Contracts SVMXC__Service_Contract__c; coverage and entitlement agreements; synced to warehouses for renewal, SLA, and warranty reporting. External files (Parquet/CSV/JSON) is specific to DuckDB and Service Contracts to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attached databases Additional database files or external systems attached into one session for cross-source queries. Stock History SVMXC__Stock_History__c; append-only log of inventory transactions (RMA, shipment, parts receipt); read out for parts and inventory analytics. Attached databases is specific to DuckDB and Stock History to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Database files Single-file .duckdb databases that jobs read and write directly on disk or object storage. Accounts Standard Salesforce Account; customer and site company records; synced two-way with CRM and database customer tables. Database files is specific to DuckDB and Accounts to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between DuckDB and Servicemax

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.

DuckDB Servicemax Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls DuckDB for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling or full re-reads.

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

Servicemax DuckDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Servicemax are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Salesforce mechanisms — Apex triggers or polling on SystemModstamp/LastModifiedDate, with Change Data Capture / Platform Events available per object.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • DuckDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by local compute and I/O.
  • Servicemax: Governed by the Salesforce org-wide daily API request allocation, shared across all integrations and scaled by edition and license count.

How the DuckDB and Servicemax connectors work

DuckDB

Integration surface
In-process SQL engine via client libraries (Python, Node.js, JDBC, CLI); no server or network API by default
Authentication
None built in; access control is file-system level (MotherDuck adds token auth for its hosted service)
Change detection
Polling or full re-reads; no change feed or transaction log API
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by local compute and I/O

Servicemax

Integration surface
Salesforce REST, SOAP, and Bulk APIs (ServiceMax is a managed package on the Salesforce platform)
Authentication
Salesforce OAuth login via a user with API access; the connecting profile needs object and field permissions on ServiceMax's SVMXC__ objects
Change detection
Salesforce mechanisms — Apex triggers or polling on SystemModstamp/LastModifiedDate, with Change Data Capture / Platform Events available per object where enabled
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Governed by the Salesforce org-wide daily API request allocation, shared across all integrations and scaled by edition and license count
