What Stacksync syncs in Amazon Lightsail.

These objects sync between Amazon Lightsail and any connected system, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution. Custom fields are picked up from the live schema where Amazon Lightsail exposes them.

Managed Databases
Lightsail-hosted MySQL or PostgreSQL instances that a sync connects to as standard databases.
Databases
Logical databases on the instance that scope a connection.
Schemas
Namespaces used when selecting tables to sync.
Tables
Relational tables read from and written to at row level.
Views
Query-backed read-only sources.
Users and Grants
Database accounts used to give the sync connection scoped access.
API surface

How Stacksync connects to Amazon Lightsail.

The connector runs on Amazon Lightsail's native API. Stacksync manages authentication, rate limits, retries, and schema changes so your team does not maintain integration code.

Connection
MySQL or PostgreSQL wire protocol (SQL) to the managed database endpoint
Authentication
Database credentials; public endpoint access must be enabled or a tunnel used
Change detection
Polling on timestamp or key columns; log-based CDC depends on engine parameter access, which is more limited than on full RDS
Rate limits
No API-style rate limits; capacity is fixed by the chosen Lightsail bundle

Use cases

What teams run on the Amazon Lightsail connector.

Lightsail is AWS's simplified tier for small engineering teams, founders, and IT admins who want pre-configured resources at a fixed monthly price instead of itemized AWS billing. Its managed databases run MySQL or PostgreSQL with snapshots and point-in-time restore handled by AWS. The database usually backs a single production app — WordPress, a LAMP stack, or line-of-business software — so it holds the working copy of customer and order data.

  • Small engineering teams
  • Full-stack developers
  • IT admins
  • Founders/technical operators

  1. Sync a Lightsail-hosted application database with a CRM so customer records match what the app stores.

  2. Replicate tables from a Lightsail MySQL or PostgreSQL database into a warehouse for reporting.

  3. Push cleaned or enriched records from central systems back into the Lightsail database behind a small web app.

  4. Migrate data continuously from a Lightsail database to a larger managed database as an application outgrows the VPS tier.

  5. Sync CRM contact and deal records into the Lightsail managed database Tables so the production app reads current customer data without custom API code.

  6. Replicate app Tables and Views out to a reporting database or warehouse, keeping analysts off the production endpoint.

FAQ

Amazon Lightsail connector FAQ

What can I sync with the Amazon Lightsail connector?

Amazon Lightsail's core objects — Managed Databases, Databases, Schemas, Tables and custom fields — can sync with any of 302 other systems. Every integration is real-time and bidirectional, with field-level mapping and conflict resolution.

How does Stacksync connect to Amazon Lightsail?

Via MySQL or PostgreSQL wire protocol (SQL) to the managed database endpoint, authenticated with Database credentials; public endpoint access must be enabled or a tunnel used. Changes are detected as follows — polling on timestamp or key columns; log-based CDC depends on engine parameter access, which is more limited than on full RDS. Stacksync manages rate limits, retries, and schema changes automatically.

Is the Amazon Lightsail connector two-way?

Yes. Changes made in Amazon Lightsail propagate to the connected system and vice versa, in milliseconds. One-way flows are also supported when a direction should stay read-only.

How long does an Amazon Lightsail integration take to set up?

Most Amazon Lightsail integrations go live in minutes: authenticate Amazon Lightsail and the other system, pick objects and fields, and enable the sync. No code and no infrastructure to manage.

Is Amazon Lightsail data secure in transit?

Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA compliant. Amazon Lightsail data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means records are not retained after a sync operation.
