The initial sync occurs when you first connect a system and retrieves historical data to establish a baseline. This includes records from a configurable time period (typically 30-90 days) and can take several minutes to hours depending on data volume. Initial syncs are complete snapshots of the requested data. Incremental syncs occur on subsequent runs and retrieve only records created or modified since the last successful sync. Makini tracks sync timestamps and uses them to query for changes efficiently. Incremental syncs are much faster, usually completing in seconds to minutes. This approach minimizes API load on source systems while keeping your data current.
Webhooks allow Makini to notify your application of events in real-time. To set up webhooks, configure a webhook URL in your connection settings or during the initial connection flow. Your webhook endpoint must accept POST requests, respond within 10 seconds with a 200 status code, and use HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate. Makini will send webhook payloads to your endpoint when configured events occur, such as sync completion, connection status changes, or errors requiring attention. We recommend keeping your webhook receiver lightweight—ideally just writing the payload to a queue for asynchronous processing—to avoid timeouts and ensure reliable delivery.
Yes, Makini supports multi-region deployments for customers requiring data residency in specific regions or needing high availability across geographies. Each region runs an independent instance of Makini with its own infrastructure, ensuring data remains within the specified region. Multi-region deployments are most common for self-hosted installations where customers want instances in multiple AWS regions or data centers. For cloud deployments, we can discuss region-specific hosting based on your requirements. Multi-region support ensures compliance with data localization regulations and provides geographic redundancy for mission-critical integrations.
Based on our market data, building industrial integrations in-house typically costs $50,000-$150,000+ per integration and takes 2-24 months depending on complexity. Maintenance requires dedicated resources—roughly one full-time person per three integrations. Makini transforms these economics: integrations go live in 1-6 weeks, costs are predictable OPEX rather than large upfront CAPEX, and maintenance is included. You gain access to 2,000+ integrations instead of building them one at a time. Our team has six years of specialization in industrial integrations, meaning we've solved problems you haven't encountered yet. For product companies, Makini allows faster time to market and frees engineering resources to focus on your core product rather than building and maintaining integration infrastructure.
