Why teams connect MarkLogic and Seismic

Treat Seismic like part of your database: its records live in MarkLogic as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in MarkLogic, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Library Content, Content Versions, Users, User Groups from Seismic into TDE Views, Document Metadata & Properties, Databases & Forests, Users & Roles in MarkLogic with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Seismic with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • 01 Provision and deactivate Seismic Users and User Groups from an HRIS or IdP so content access mirrors joiner, mover, and leaver changes.
  • 02 Extract content-interaction and LiveSend engagement from the Reporting API v2 into a warehouse to tie asset views to CRM Opportunities.
  • 03 Feed harmonized entities into search and analytics applications as documents change.
  • 04 Sync curated master data from a MarkLogic data hub into operational CRMs and ERPs.

Common sync patterns

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Seismic arrive as row changes in MarkLogic, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Seismic become tables in MarkLogic you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to MarkLogic sync onto the matching records in Seismic, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

What you can sync between MarkLogic and Seismic

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.

MarkLogic objects Seismic objects How this pairing syncs
Documents JSON and XML documents, the primary records read from and written to the database. Library Content Documents, decks, and assets stored in teamsites; created, moved, and retrieved via the Content Management API, each with a contentId. Documents is specific to MarkLogic and Library Content to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Collections Named groupings used to scope which documents a sync reads or updates. Content Versions Version history for a library item; new versions upload via API and old ones expire, with events firing on ContentManager webhooks. Collections is specific to MarkLogic and Content Versions to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Semantic Triples RDF data stored alongside documents, queryable with SPARQL for linked-data syncs. Users User records managed through SCIM 2.0 and legacy user endpoints; created, updated, and deactivated for provisioning sync. Semantic Triples is specific to MarkLogic and Users to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
TDE Views Relational projections of documents that let syncs read document data as SQL rows. User Groups Group definitions and membership that govern content access; synced from an IdP or HRIS to keep permissions current. TDE Views is specific to MarkLogic and User Groups to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Document Metadata & Properties Permissions, quality, and property fragments carried with each document. Teamsites Tenant-scoped workspace partitions organizing Library content, permissions, and config; scoped by teamSiteId on most content calls. Document Metadata & Properties is specific to MarkLogic and Teamsites to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases & Forests Storage units that define the scope and placement of synced content. LiveSend Links Trackable content-share links created via the engagement API; their open and view engagement is read back through Reporting. Databases & Forests is specific to MarkLogic and LiveSend Links to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between MarkLogic and Seismic

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.

MarkLogic Seismic Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls MarkLogic for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No exposed transaction log.

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

Seismic MarkLogic Sub-second propagation

DetectionSeismic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for content, version, user, group, workflow, DSR, and LiveSend events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Seismic: Tiered per-endpoint limits over a rolling 60-second window; exceeding returns HTTP 429, with X-Seismic-Remaining-Calls and X-Seismic-Total-Calls headers.
