Why teams connect Anaplan and CockroachDB

Work with Anaplan's financial data straight from CockroachDB: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Modules, Line Items, Lists, List Items from Anaplan into Indexes, Sequences, Changefeeds, Databases in CockroachDB and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against CockroachDB, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Anaplan with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • Export forecast versions to a warehouse for variance reporting against actuals.
  • Load actuals from an ERP or warehouse into Anaplan modules so forecasts start from current financials.
  • Write application events from CockroachDB back to CRM fields to give go-to-market teams product context.
  • Use changefeeds to propagate row changes from a multi-region cluster into a warehouse or search index.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in CockroachDB propagate into Anaplan, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Anaplan appear in CockroachDB as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

Query finance data like any other data

Customers, invoices, and payments from Anaplan live in CockroachDB as regular tables or collections your team can join, index, and query.

What you can sync between Anaplan and CockroachDB

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.

Anaplan objects CockroachDB objects
Line Items The measures within a module, mapped to columns or metrics in syncs. Databases Logical containers a sync connects to, addressed like PostgreSQL databases.
Lists Dimension members (accounts, products, cost centers) synced from master data systems. Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables from application tables.
List Items Individual dimension members created or updated from external systems of record. Tables The core read/write target; rows sync bi-directionally with SaaS objects or other databases.
Versions Scenario dimensions (actual, budget, forecast) that scope which slice a sync reads or writes. Views Read-only projections used as curated sync sources.
Import and Export Actions Predefined data-movement definitions the Bulk API executes. Indexes Secondary indexes that keep sync lookup queries fast on key columns.
Processes Ordered bundles of actions run as a unit during scheduled syncs. Sequences ID generators that matter when writes originate from an external system.

How the Anaplan and CockroachDB connectors work

Anaplan

Integration surface
REST APIs: a Bulk API that runs predefined import/export actions and a transactional API for model metadata and cell data
Authentication
Token-based sessions obtained via basic authentication, CA certificates, or OAuth 2.0 through Anaplan's authentication service
Change detection
Polling and scheduled export actions; the platform does not expose change events
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits; large data movements are designed to run through bulk actions

CockroachDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL-compatible)
Authentication
Database credentials with TLS; client certificates or SCRAM password auth
Change detection
CDC via changefeeds, which stream row-level changes; polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits in the SaaS sense; throughput is bounded by cluster capacity
