Why teams connect MariaDB and Shopify

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

Stacksync mirrors ProductVariants, Orders, Customers, Abandoned Checkouts from Shopify into Databases (Schemas), Tables, Views, Columns in MariaDB 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

  • Write inventory levels from a WMS or ERP into Shopify locations to keep availability accurate.
  • Mirror the product catalog from a PIM or database into Shopify products, variants, and metafields.
  • Replicate ERP or billing master data into MariaDB databases that power customer-facing applications
  • Feed a warehouse continuously from MariaDB using binlog-based capture instead of scheduled dumps

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Shopify become tables in MariaDB you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to MariaDB 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.

What you can sync between MariaDB 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.

MariaDB objects Shopify objects
JSON Columns Semi-structured payloads validated with JSON functions. ProductMedias Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. ProductVariants Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. Orders Purchase transactions; pushed to ERPs for fulfillment and billing, and read into databases for reporting.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Customers Buyer records; matched to CRM contacts for marketing and lifetime-value analysis.
Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Abandoned Checkouts Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. Products Catalog entries; often mastered in a PIM or ERP and written into Shopify.

How the MariaDB and Shopify connectors work

MariaDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (MySQL-compatible client/server protocol)
Authentication
Database credentials (connection string or parameters), with optional SSL root certificate upload and optional SSH tunnel (SSH user + host)
Change detection
Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources
MariaDB setup guide

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.
