Automate Adobe Commerce Data Replication to Couchbase



Use CData Sync to Customize and automate Adobe Commerce data replication to Couchbase.

Always-on applications rely on automatic failover capabilities and real-time access to data. CData Sync integrates live Adobe Commerce data into your Couchbase instance, allowing you to consolidate all of your data into a single location for archiving, reporting, analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence and more.

Configure Couchbase as a Replication Destination

Using CData Sync, you can replicate Adobe Commerce data to Couchbase. To add a replication destination, navigate to the Connections tab.

  1. Click Add Connection.
  2. Select the Destinations tab and locate the Couchbase connector.
  3. Click the Configure Connection icon at the end of that row to open the New Connection page. If the Configure Connection icon is not available, click the Download Connector icon to install the Couchbase connector. For more information about installing new connectors, see Connections in the Help documentation.
  4. To connect to Couchbase, set the following connection properties:
    • Connection Name: Enter a connection name of your choice for the Couchbase connection.
    • User: Enter the username that you use to authenticate to Couchbase.
    • Password: Enter the password that you use to authenticate to Couchbase.
    • Server: Enter the address of Couchbase server or servers to which you want to connect.
    • Bucket: Enter the name of the bucket to which you want to replicate data.
    • Port (Optional): Enter the port number for the Couchbase server. The default port value is 8091.
  5. Once connected, click Create & Test to create, test and save the connection.

You are now connected to Couchbase and can use it as both a source and a destination.

NOTE: You can use the Label feature to add a label for a source or a destination.

In this article, we will demonstrate how to load Adobe Commerce data into Couchbase and utilize it as a destination.

Configure the Adobe Commerce Connection

You can configure a connection to Adobe Commerce from the Connections tab. To add a connection to your Adobe Commerce account, navigate to the Connections tab.

  1. Click Add Connection.
  2. Select a source (Adobe Commerce).
  3. Configure the connection properties.

    Adobe Commerce uses the OAuth 1 authentication standard. To connect to the Adobe Commerce REST API, obtain values for the OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and CallbackURL connection properties by registering an app with your Adobe Commerce system. See the "Getting Started" section in the help documentation for a guide to obtaining the OAuth values and connecting.

    You will also need to provide the URL to your Adobe Commerce system. The URL depends on whether you are using the Adobe Commerce REST API as a customer or administrator.

    • Customer: To use Adobe Commerce as a customer, make sure you have created a customer account in the Adobe Commerce homepage. To do so, click Account -> Register. You can then set the URL connection property to the endpoint of your Adobe Commerce system.

    • Administrator: To access Adobe Commerce as an administrator, set CustomAdminPath instead. This value can be obtained in the Advanced settings in the Admin menu, which can be accessed by selecting System -> Configuration -> Advanced -> Admin -> Admin Base URL.

      If the Use Custom Admin Path setting on this page is set to YES, the value is inside the Custom Admin Path text box; otherwise, set the CustomAdminPath connection property to the default value, which is "admin".

  4. Click Connect to Adobe Commerce to ensure that the connection is configured properly.
  5. Click Save & Test to save the changes.

Configure Replication Queries

CData Sync enables you to control replication with a point-and-click interface and with SQL queries. For each replication you wish to configure, navigate to the Jobs tab and click Add Job. Select the Source and Destination for your replication.

Replicate Entire Tables

To replicate an entire table, navigate to the Task tab in the Job, click Add Tasks, choose the table(s) from the list of Adobe Commerce tables you wish to replicate into Couchbase, and click Add Tasks again.

Customize Your Replication

You can use the Columns and Query tabs of a task to customize your replication. The Columns tab allows you to specify which columns to replicate, rename the columns at the destination, and even perform operations on the source data before replicating. The Query tab allows you to add filters, grouping, and sorting to the replication with the help of SQL queries.

Schedule Your Replication

Select the Overview tab in the Job, and click Configure under Schedule. You can schedule a job to run automatically by configuring it to run at specified intervals, ranging from once every 10 minutes to once every month.

Once you have configured the replication job, click Save Changes. You can configure any number of jobs to manage the replication of your Adobe Commerce data to Couchbase.

Run the Replication Job

Once all the required configurations are made for the job, select the Adobe Commerce table you wish to replicate and click Run. After the replication completes successfully, a notification appears, showing the time taken to run the job and the number of rows replicated.
