Why teams connect Google AlloyDB and Recurly

Work with Recurly's financial data straight from Google AlloyDB: 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 Line Items, Coupons and Redemptions, Billing Info, Measured Units and Usage from Recurly into Indexes, Sequences, Replication Slots, Databases in Google AlloyDB and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against Google AlloyDB, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Recurly with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • 01 Post usage records to Measured Units on metered Subscriptions from a metering database before each bill run.
  • 02 Sync Accounts and Subscriptions bi-directionally with Postgres so product and provisioning systems read live entitlement state and write plan or seat changes back to Recurly.
  • 03 Consolidate SaaS data into AlloyDB and serve analytics from its columnar engine without a separate OLAP store.
  • 04 Migrate workloads from self-managed Postgres while keeping existing syncs pointed at a compatible endpoint.

Common sync patterns

Write back safely

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

React to financial events

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

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Recurly live in Google AlloyDB as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

What you can sync between Google AlloyDB 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.

Google AlloyDB objects Recurly objects How this pairing syncs
Replication Slots Logical replication artifacts that back log-based change capture. Accounts Customer/billing entity records keyed by account_code; the anchor most subscriptions and invoices hang off. Synced two-way with CRM accounts or a customer database. Replication Slots is specific to Google AlloyDB and Accounts to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Standard PostgreSQL databases within an AlloyDB cluster that syncs connect to. Subscriptions Recurring subscription records tied to an Account and a Plan, with state, term, and next-bill date. Core object, synced two-way to drive provisioning and reporting. Databases is specific to Google AlloyDB and Subscriptions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces used to separate synced SaaS data from application tables. 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 Google AlloyDB and Plans to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Primary read/write target for bi-directional sync with CRMs and other systems. Invoices Charge and credit billing documents; read-heavy for revenue reporting, and creatable through Purchases for one-off charges. Tables is specific to Google AlloyDB and Invoices to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Curated projections used as read-only sync sources. Transactions Individual payment attempts — captures, refunds, and voids; typically read into a warehouse for reconciliation and dunning analysis. Views is specific to Google AlloyDB and Transactions to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed aggregates refreshed and synced outward on a schedule. 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 Google AlloyDB and Line Items to Recurly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google AlloyDB 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.

Google AlloyDB Recurly Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Google AlloyDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication.

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

Recurly Google AlloyDB 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 Google AlloyDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google AlloyDB: No API-style rate limits; throughput is bounded by instance size.
  • 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.
