Why teams connect Shipwire and Vertica

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

Vertica 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 Projections, Views, Flex Tables, External Tables in Vertica with Products, Stock, Receivings, Returns 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 Land ERP transactions in Vertica for finance analytics without maintaining hand-built ETL jobs.
  • 02 Push segments or aggregates computed in Vertica back into operational tools such as a CRM.
  • 03 Pull Returns and tracking.delivered events into a support or analytics database for reverse-logistics and delivery-SLA reporting.
  • 04 Two-way sync Orders between a storefront or ERP database and Shipwire so new orders create fulfillment requests and Stacksync writes Trackings and status (processed, submitted, delivered) back.

Common sync patterns

Inventory and order status reconciled

Stock levels and order or fulfillment status move between Vertica 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 Vertica as they change, so dashboards and models read current data instead of last night's export.

What you can sync between Shipwire and Vertica

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.

Shipwire objects Vertica objects How this pairing syncs
Stock Real-time per-warehouse inventory levels; read-only, pulled into a database or storefront so availability reflects on-hand and backordered quantities. Schemas Namespaces used to organize synced datasets by domain or source. Stock is specific to Shipwire and Schemas to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Receivings Inbound advance ship notices (ASNs) from suppliers; created and updated via API and reconciled against Purchase Orders as inventory arrives at a warehouse. Tables Columnar tables; the primary read and write targets for syncs. Receivings is specific to Shipwire and Tables to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Returns Return orders raised against existing Orders; created via API and read back into support or analytics systems for reverse-logistics tracking. Projections Sorted, encoded physical copies of table data that the optimizer selects at query time; they affect load and query behavior rather than being addressed directly. Returns is specific to Shipwire and Projections to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Purchase Orders B2B orders with retailer-specific routing and compliance fields; managed via API alongside receivings for wholesale and marketplace fulfillment. Views Logical views used to shape reads for downstream consumers. Purchase Orders is specific to Shipwire and Views to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Trackings Shipment tracking numbers and carrier status returned as an Order subresource and surfaced through tracking.created, tracking.updated, and tracking.delivered webhook topics. Flex Tables Schema-flexible tables for semi-structured JSON data landed before modeling. Trackings is specific to Shipwire and Flex Tables to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. External Tables Data queried in place on files or object storage without loading. Rates is specific to Shipwire and External Tables to Vertica — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Shipwire and Vertica

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.

Shipwire Vertica 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 Vertica as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Vertica Shipwire Interval-based propagation

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
  • Vertica: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by cluster resources, and bulk COPY is preferred over row-by-row writes.
