Why teams connect Orderful and TimescaleDB

Mirror Orderful's data into TimescaleDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Orderful through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in TimescaleDB.

Stacksync mirrors Transactions, Trading partners, Relationships, Validation guidelines from Orderful into Continuous Aggregates, Regular PostgreSQL Tables, Views, Schemas in TimescaleDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Orderful, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Sync inbound purchase orders from Orderful into an ERP or Postgres so fulfillment starts without manual EDI handling.
  • Push invoices and advance ship notices from the ERP through Orderful to retail trading partners.
  • Sync product or IoT telemetry stored in TimescaleDB into a CRM so account teams see usage metrics next to the customer record.
  • Replicate subscription and billing events from operational Postgres tables into Timescale hypertables for time-series analysis.

Automate Orderful from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in TimescaleDB and Stacksync propagates the change into Orderful, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Orderful arrive as row changes in TimescaleDB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

What you can sync between Orderful and TimescaleDB

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.

Orderful objects TimescaleDB objects
Transactions EDI documents such as 850 purchase orders, 810 invoices, and 856 ship notices, represented as JSON Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs.
Trading partners The retailers, carriers, and suppliers a company exchanges documents with Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly.
Relationships Active partner connections per transaction type that govern what can be sent and received Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems.
Validation guidelines Partner-specific rules transactions are checked against before delivery Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data.
Acknowledgments 997 functional acknowledgments confirming receipt of transmitted documents Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers.
Webhook events Push notifications for inbound documents and transaction status changes Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment.

How the Orderful and TimescaleDB connectors work

Orderful

Integration surface
REST API (JSON)
Authentication

TimescaleDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL)
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must be remapped to the parent — or timestamp-based polling on time columns; regular Postgres tables replicate through standard logical replication

Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.
