Why teams connect Amazon RDS and Shopify

Treat Shopify like part of your database: its records live in Amazon RDS 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 Amazon RDS, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Products, ProductMedias, ProductVariants, Orders from Shopify into Tables, Views, Columns, Primary and Unique Keys in Amazon RDS with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Shopify 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

  • Sync orders, customers, and inventory into Postgres for operational reporting across stores.
  • Keep customer records aligned between Shopify and a CRM for segmentation and lifetime-value analysis.
  • Mirror SaaS objects into RDS tables so product features can join business data with application data in one query
  • Keep an RDS reporting database hydrated from operational tools without maintaining ETL jobs

Product events onto CRM records

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

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Shopify API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Shopify arrive as row changes in Amazon RDS, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

What you can sync between Amazon RDS and Shopify

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.

Amazon RDS objects Shopify objects
Databases Engine-level databases on the instance that scope a sync's reads and writes. ProductVariants Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables. Orders Purchase transactions; pushed to ERPs for fulfillment and billing, and read into databases for reporting.
Tables The core sync target; rows map to records in connected SaaS systems. Customers Buyer records; matched to CRM contacts for marketing and lifetime-value analysis.
Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Abandoned Checkouts Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Columns Field-level mapping targets, typed per the underlying engine. Products Catalog entries; often mastered in a PIM or ERP and written into Shopify.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. ProductMedias Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.

How the Amazon RDS and Shopify connectors work

Amazon RDS

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol of the chosen engine (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, Oracle)
Authentication
Database credentials over SSL/TLS, or IAM database authentication on supported engines
Change detection
Engine-native log-based CDC: MySQL/MariaDB binlog, PostgreSQL logical replication, SQL Server CDC; enabled through RDS parameter groups, with polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance class, storage IOPS, and connection limits

Shopify

Integration surface
GraphQL Admin API (primary) and REST Admin API (legacy)
Authentication
OAuth via a custom Shopify app: admin creates an app in the Shopify Dev Dashboard, enables required API scopes, sets the Stacksync redirect URL, then supplies shop name + Client ID and Client Secret to Stacksync
Change detection
Webhook topics per resource, with polling on updated_at as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
GraphQL uses a calculated query-cost budget; the REST API uses a leaky-bucket model.
