Why teams connect 6sense and Amazon RDS

Treat 6sense like part of your database: its records live in Amazon RDS as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

6sense is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Amazon RDS, so Amazon RDS always reflects the current state of 6sense — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

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 Amazon RDS, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Common use cases

  • 01 Land account-level intent data in a warehouse to join with pipeline data for ABM reporting.
  • 02 Enrich inbound leads with 6sense firmographic and account-match data before routing.
  • 03 Sync master data (customers, products, pricing) from an ERP into the RDS databases that power customer-facing apps
  • 04 Use a read replica as the sync source to keep change capture load off the primary instance

Common sync patterns

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the 6sense API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in 6sense arrive as row changes in Amazon RDS, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from 6sense become tables in Amazon RDS you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between 6sense and Amazon RDS

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.

6sense objects Amazon RDS objects How this pairing syncs
Segments Dynamic account lists built from intent and fit criteria, read out to drive targeting. Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables. Segments is specific to 6sense and Schemas to Amazon RDS — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buying Stage Scores Model-predicted stage per account, synced onto CRM records for prioritization. Tables The core sync target; rows map to records in connected SaaS systems. Buying Stage Scores is specific to 6sense and Tables to Amazon RDS — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Intent Signals Keyword-level research activity used to flag in-market accounts. Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Intent Signals is specific to 6sense and Views to Amazon RDS — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People / Contacts Persona and contact data surfaced for accounts, used to build outreach lists. Columns Field-level mapping targets, typed per the underlying engine. People / Contacts is specific to 6sense and Columns to Amazon RDS — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reach Scores Model scores reflecting the level and recency of outreach to an account or contact, used to prioritize follow-up. Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. Reach Scores is specific to 6sense and Primary and Unique Keys to Amazon RDS — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Accounts Company records enriched with firmographics and intent data, matched to CRM accounts. Read Replicas Low-impact read endpoints often used as the source side of a sync. Accounts is specific to 6sense and Read Replicas to Amazon RDS — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between 6sense and Amazon RDS

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

6sense Amazon RDS Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls 6sense for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Amazon RDS as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Amazon RDS 6sense Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon RDS are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Engine-native log-based CDC: MySQL/MariaDB binlog, PostgreSQL logical replication, SQL Server CDC.

Delivery6sense does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: 6sense's output flows back as field updates on the originating Amazon RDS records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • 6sense: Subject to the platform's API rate limits, which vary by contracted API package.
  • Amazon RDS: No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance class, storage IOPS, and connection limits.
