Why teams connect Infor CloudSuite and TiDB

Give your engineers Infor CloudSuite's data in TiDB: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Items, Customers, Suppliers / vendors, Sales orders from Infor CloudSuite into TiDB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever Infor CloudSuite is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in TiDB sync back into Infor CloudSuite with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Two-way sync between TiDB tables and SaaS tools so operational edits made in either system converge
  • 02 Stream row-level changes to a warehouse or Kafka via CDC for near-real-time analytics
  • 03 Flow ecommerce orders into CloudSuite and return order status and shipment data to the storefront.
  • 04 Replicate ERP data into a warehouse for reporting without building custom ION integrations.

Common sync patterns

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from TiDB back into Infor CloudSuite, keeping the ERP authoritative.

Read ERP records with a query

Records from Infor CloudSuite live in TiDB as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Infor CloudSuite interface, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Infor CloudSuite and TiDB

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.

Infor CloudSuite objects TiDB objects How this pairing syncs
Items Product and material masters synced to commerce, CRM, and planning tools. Databases MySQL-style schemas addressed by any MySQL-compatible client. Items is specific to Infor CloudSuite and Databases to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Customers Account masters matched against CRM records in two-way syncs. Tables Row data stored in TiKV; the primary unit for reads, writes, and CDC. Customers is specific to Infor CloudSuite and Tables to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Suppliers / vendors Procurement counterparties synced with sourcing and AP tools. Views Logical views for shaping reads before syncing outward. Suppliers / vendors is specific to Infor CloudSuite and Views to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sales orders Demand-side documents synced in from commerce channels and out for fulfillment visibility. Columns MySQL-compatible types mapped to fields in the paired system. Sales orders is specific to Infor CloudSuite and Columns to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase orders Supply-side documents shared with procurement and supplier portals. Indexes Secondary indexes that keep incremental sync queries efficient. Purchase orders is specific to Infor CloudSuite and Indexes to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Invoices Billing documents synced to finance and reporting systems. Sequences Server-side ID generation relevant when external systems write rows. Invoices is specific to Infor CloudSuite and Sequences to TiDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Infor CloudSuite and TiDB

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.

Infor CloudSuite TiDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Infor CloudSuite for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Event-style BOD publications through Infor ION where configured.

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

TiDB Infor CloudSuite Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in TiDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via TiCDC, which captures row changes from TiKV and streams them to downstream sinks.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Infor CloudSuite: Subject to the ION API gateway's rate limiting policies for the tenant.
  • TiDB: Throughput scales with cluster size rather than fixed API quotas.
