Why teams connect Easypost and IBM Db2

Give your engineers Easypost's products, orders, and customers in IBM Db2: read them with normal queries, write inventory and prices back through the sync, and skip the storefront API.

E-commerce data sits behind an API built for the storefront, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for order routing, inventory logic, reporting, or back-office tools, end up writing integration code against a rate-limited API and maintaining it through every catalog change and platform upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Tracker, Batch, CarrierAccount, Webhook from Easypost into IBM Db2 and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Easypost holds, whether products, orders, customers, or inventory, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in IBM Db2, such as new prices, stock levels, or fulfillment status, sync back into Easypost with its validations respected.

Merchandising and operations keep working in the storefront, engineers keep working in the database, and neither side has to reconcile against a nightly export.

Common use cases

  • 01 Replicate Db2 tables into a cloud warehouse continuously instead of nightly batch extracts.
  • 02 Keep reference and master data aligned between Db2 and newer cloud databases during modernization projects.
  • 03 Sync CarrierAccount configuration and negotiated rates so shipping options stay consistent across the storefront, ERP, and 3PL systems.
  • 04 Pull Shipment, Rate, and Refund records into a warehouse to report shipping cost per carrier and service and reclaim postage on labels that were never scanned.

Common sync patterns

React to store changes

Updates in Easypost arrive as row changes in IBM Db2, so jobs and triggers can respond the moment an order, price, or stock level changes.

Keep catalog and inventory current

Prices, stock levels, or product details maintained in IBM Db2 sync back onto Easypost, so the storefront shows what your systems treat as true.

Order data where your code can use it

Orders and their status become rows in IBM Db2 for routing, fulfillment, and reporting, without polling the platform.

What you can sync between Easypost and IBM Db2

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.

Easypost objects IBM Db2 objects How this pairing syncs
Rate Carrier service and price options EasyPost generates on a Shipment; read-only - you select a rate id and buy it, you do not create or edit rates directly. Stored Procedures Existing business logic sometimes invoked as part of write paths. Rate is specific to Easypost and Stored Procedures to IBM Db2 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tracker Tracking for a shipment by tracking_code and carrier; create a Tracker to begin tracking, read status and tracking_details, and receive tracker.updated events via webhook as the parcel moves. Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows. Tracker is specific to Easypost and Sequences to IBM Db2 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Batch Bulk shipment processing; create a batch, add or remove shipments, buy all labels at once, and generate a consolidated label or ScanForm for the day's orders. Tablespaces Physical storage layout that operators consider when adding synced tables. Batch is specific to Easypost and Tablespaces to IBM Db2 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
CarrierAccount Carrier credentials and settings that control which carriers and negotiated rates are available; create, update, and delete to manage enabled carriers across accounts. Databases The connection target; each database holds the schemas a sync addresses. CarrierAccount is specific to Easypost and Databases to IBM Db2 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Webhook Event subscriptions delivering an Event via HTTP POST on object changes; full CRUD (create, retrieve, list, update, delete) and the mechanism for near-real-time change delivery to Stacksync. Schemas Namespaces separating synced data from application and system objects. Webhook is specific to Easypost and Schemas to IBM Db2 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Shipment The central writable object: create with a to/from Address and Parcel, receive Rate options, then buy a label to get postage_label and tracking_code; retrieve and list with cursor pagination. Tables Primary read/write target for syncing rows with SaaS systems or other databases. Shipment is specific to Easypost and Tables to IBM Db2 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Easypost and IBM Db2

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.

Easypost IBM Db2 Sub-second propagation

DetectionEasypost notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks deliver an Event via HTTP POST on object changes (e.g.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to IBM Db2 as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

IBM Db2 Easypost Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in IBM Db2 are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC through IBM's replication tooling where licensed.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Easypost: Fixed 5 requests/second on index (list) endpoints plus a dynamic load-based limiter protecting buy and rate operations; exceeding either returns HTTP 429 Too Many Requests.
  • IBM Db2: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by instance resources and workload management settings.
