Why teams connect Google Cloud Platform and Shipwire

Make Google Cloud Platform the analytics and enrichment layer behind Shipwire: orders, products, and customers stay current in both directions.

Google Cloud Platform is the analytical store where the business joins, models, and reports on its data; Shipwire runs the storefront, catalog, and transactions that generate most of it. The overlap is every record that has to be counted and enriched on one side and acted on the other — and when the bridge is a nightly export, the warehouse reports on yesterday while the store operates without the segments and metrics the warehouse just computed.

Stacksync syncs BigQuery datasets, BigQuery tables, Cloud SQL databases, Cloud Storage objects in Google Cloud Platform with Trackings, Rates, Orders, Products in Shipwire field by field, in real time, and in both directions. Transactional records land in the warehouse as they change, computed attributes and cleaned catalog data flow back to the store, and you decide which system owns which fields so Stacksync resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Publish change events to Pub/Sub so downstream services react to record updates as they happen.
  • 02 Read Stock levels per warehouse into an operational database or storefront so availability and backorder state reflect real inventory.
  • 03 Sync Receivings (advance ship notices) and reconcile them against Purchase Orders so inbound supplier shipments are visible as they land.

Common sync patterns

Inventory and order status reconciled

Stock levels and order or fulfillment status move between Google Cloud Platform and Shipwire so counts and states agree across reporting and operations.

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer records, corrections in either propagate to the other so analytics and the storefront share one identity.

Live analytics on store activity

Orders, products, and customer records from Shipwire land in Google Cloud Platform as they change, so dashboards and models read current data instead of last night's export.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Platform and Shipwire

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 Cloud Platform objects Shipwire objects How this pairing syncs
Cloud Storage objects Staging area for file-based bulk loads into BigQuery and other services. Stock Real-time per-warehouse inventory levels; read-only, pulled into a database or storefront so availability reflects on-hand and backordered quantities. Cloud Storage objects is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Stock to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Pub/Sub topics Event streams used to move change events between systems in near real time. Receivings Inbound advance ship notices (ASNs) from suppliers; created and updated via API and reconciled against Purchase Orders as inventory arrives at a warehouse. Pub/Sub topics is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Receivings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Firestore documents Document data read and written through the Firestore API for app-facing syncs. Returns Return orders raised against existing Orders; created via API and read back into support or analytics systems for reverse-logistics tracking. Firestore documents is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Returns to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Spanner tables Strongly consistent relational tables accessed via SQL for transactional workloads. Purchase Orders B2B orders with retailer-specific routing and compliance fields; managed via API alongside receivings for wholesale and marketplace fulfillment. Spanner tables is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Purchase Orders to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
BigQuery datasets Namespaces that group tables; syncs target tables within a dataset. Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. BigQuery datasets is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Trackings to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
BigQuery tables The primary analytics destination, written through load jobs or the Storage Write API and queried with SQL. Rates Shipping cost quotes for a cart or order; read-only, called at checkout time to estimate carrier costs rather than synced as stored records. BigQuery tables is specific to Google Cloud Platform and Rates to Shipwire — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Cloud Platform and Shipwire

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 Cloud Platform Shipwire Sub-second propagation

DetectionGoogle Cloud Platform pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Varies by service: log-based CDC on Cloud SQL (logical replication or binlog, also via Datastream), Pub/Sub for event delivery, polling for BigQuery.

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

Shipwire Google Cloud Platform Sub-second propagation

DetectionShipwire notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (HMAC-SHA256 signed, near real-time) on order, tracking, stock, receiving, return, and product topics.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Cloud Platform: Quotas are set per service and per project; BigQuery, Pub/Sub, and Cloud SQL each enforce their own limits.
  • Shipwire: No published per-second request cap; list responses page at 20 items (recommended max ~200) and webhook payloads carry at most 20 items per resource, so large records must be paged via the response next links.
