Why teams connect Apache Impala and Brightpearl

Put Brightpearl's records in Apache Impala as live tables for reporting and analysis, without extract jobs, and write results back where Brightpearl can use them.

ERP data is some of the most asked-for data in the warehouse and some of the hardest to get: the record types are many, the APIs are strict, and extract jobs are brittle. Whether Brightpearl carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, the analysis belongs in Apache Impala next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Goods-out notes, Invoices and payments, Custom fields, Products from Brightpearl into tables in Apache Impala continuously, managing API limits and schema drift along the way. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Apache Impala can be written back to fields in Brightpearl where that is useful.

Common use cases

  • Serve fast extracts of Hadoop-resident tables to operational databases and SaaS tools through Impala instead of slow batch engines.
  • Sync mutable reference data into Kudu tables via Impala so row-level updates are possible on the Hadoop side.
  • Keep the product catalog aligned between Brightpearl and e-commerce channels, including price list changes.
  • Land order and margin data in a warehouse for retail performance reporting.

Write-back where Brightpearl exposes writable fields

Classifications or reference values computed in Apache Impala sync back onto the corresponding records in Brightpearl.

Where Brightpearl holds the books: finance reporting from live data

Financial records land in Apache Impala as they change, so period-end reporting queries current numbers rather than last night's extract.

Where Brightpearl is the HR system of record: workforce analytics

Worker and organization data syncs into Apache Impala for headcount, cost, and planning analysis alongside other company data.

What you can sync between Apache Impala and Brightpearl

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.

Apache Impala objects Brightpearl objects
Kudu Tables Kudu-backed tables that support row-level insert, update, upsert, and delete. Custom fields Per-object custom attributes included in field mappings.
External Tables Tables over files loaded by other tools, queryable without data movement. Products SKU records with variants and price lists, synced with e-commerce and ERP catalogs.
Users and Roles Principals (often via Ranger/Sentry) used to grant scoped read access. Sales orders Orders from all channels; the central object for fulfillment and revenue syncs.
Databases Namespaces shared with the Hive Metastore that scope tables. Purchase orders Supplier orders synced with procurement or accounting systems.
Tables HDFS or object-storage backed tables (commonly Parquet) read at interactive speed. Contacts Customers and suppliers in one contact model, matched to CRM records by email or reference.
Partitions Partition values used to limit scans and drive incremental reads. Inventory and warehouses On-hand and allocated stock by warehouse, read for availability publishing.

Rate limits
No API quotas; concurrency is bounded by cluster resources and admission control settings

Brightpearl

Integration surface
REST API, organized into services (order, product, contact, warehouse, accounting)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 (authorization code grant) for current apps; legacy private and public apps authenticate with app reference and account token headers
Change detection
Webhooks for object created/updated events, with resource search polling as a fallback
Capabilities
