Why teams connect OpenSearch and Servicemax

Mirror Servicemax's data into OpenSearch so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Servicemax through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in OpenSearch.

Stacksync mirrors Products, Work Orders, Work Details, Installed Products from Servicemax into Ingest pipelines, Data streams, Snapshots, Indexes in OpenSearch and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Servicemax, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Work Orders (SVMXC__Service_Order__c) and Work Details bi-directionally with Postgres so ops and analytics teams read and write field-service data in plain SQL.
  • 02 Keep Installed Products (SVMXC__Installed_Product__c) aligned with an asset or IoT database for warranty, entitlement, and service-history reporting.
  • 03 Sync product catalogs from an ERP or database into the indexes that back storefront search.
  • 04 Keep Postgres as the source of truth while mirroring rows to OpenSearch for full-text and vector queries.

Common sync patterns

Automate Servicemax from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in OpenSearch and Stacksync propagates the change into Servicemax, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Servicemax arrive as row changes in OpenSearch, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

What you can sync between OpenSearch and Servicemax

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.

OpenSearch objects Servicemax objects How this pairing syncs
Ingest pipelines Server-side processors that transform documents as they are written Work Orders SVMXC__Service_Order__c; the core field-service job record for install, repair, and maintenance; synced two-way with databases and pushed to ERPs at close. Ingest pipelines is specific to OpenSearch and Work Orders to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Data streams Append-oriented time-series storage for logs and events pushed from source systems Work Details SVMXC__Service_Order_Line__c; line items on a Work Order for labor, parts used, and expenses; read out for billing or written back with usage. Data streams is specific to OpenSearch and Work Details to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Snapshots Backup artifacts, relevant when reseeding an index from a repository Installed Products SVMXC__Installed_Product__c; the installed-base asset record driving entitlement and service history; synced with asset and IoT databases. Snapshots is specific to OpenSearch and Installed Products to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes The core container; synced records land in indexes with defined mappings Service Contracts SVMXC__Service_Contract__c; coverage and entitlement agreements; synced to warehouses for renewal, SLA, and warranty reporting. Indexes is specific to OpenSearch and Service Contracts to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Documents JSON records written via the index and bulk APIs and read via search queries Stock History SVMXC__Stock_History__c; append-only log of inventory transactions (RMA, shipment, parts receipt); read out for parts and inventory analytics. Documents is specific to OpenSearch and Stock History to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Index aliases Stable names over rotating indexes, used for zero-downtime reindex during backfills Accounts Standard Salesforce Account; customer and site company records; synced two-way with CRM and database customer tables. Index aliases is specific to OpenSearch and Accounts to Servicemax — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between OpenSearch and Servicemax

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.

OpenSearch Servicemax Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls OpenSearch for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No native change feed.

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

Servicemax OpenSearch Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Servicemax are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Salesforce mechanisms — Apex triggers or polling on SystemModstamp/LastModifiedDate, with Change Data Capture / Platform Events available per object.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • OpenSearch: Throughput bounded by cluster sizing rather than fixed API quotas.
  • Servicemax: Governed by the Salesforce org-wide daily API request allocation, shared across all integrations and scaled by edition and license count.
