Why teams connect Amazon Aurora and Gainsight

Mirror Gainsight's data into Amazon Aurora 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 Gainsight 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 Amazon Aurora.

Stacksync mirrors Success Plan, Task and Playbook, Custom Objects, Company from Gainsight into Columns and Data Types, Primary and Foreign Keys, Read Replicas, Databases in Amazon Aurora 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 Gainsight, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read Timeline Activities and Success Plan objectives into a reporting database for churn, QBR, and CSM-productivity dashboards.
  • 02 Keep Relationship records aligned with a billing system or ERP so multi-product customers map to the correct contracts and invoices.
  • 03 Offload sync reads to Aurora reader endpoints to avoid load on the writer instance.
  • 04 Two-way sync between Aurora application tables and a CRM so product data and account data stay consistent.

Common sync patterns

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Gainsight arrive as row changes in Amazon Aurora, 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.

Read Gainsight with a query

Records from Gainsight are ordinary rows in Amazon Aurora; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

What you can sync between Amazon Aurora and Gainsight

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.

Amazon Aurora objects Gainsight objects How this pairing syncs
Views Read-only query-backed sources for downstream syncs. Success Plan Account objectives with associated tasks; read out for reporting or synced with project tools tracking onboarding and adoption. Views is specific to Amazon Aurora and Success Plan to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed result sets (PostgreSQL-compatible clusters) readable as sources. Task and Playbook Cockpit tasks generated from CTAs and playbooks; synced with Jira or Asana so execution happens in the team's own tool. Materialized Views is specific to Amazon Aurora and Task and Playbook to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Columns and Data Types Standard MySQL or PostgreSQL types mapped during field mapping. Custom Objects Org-specific MDA tables with the __gc suffix; discoverable via the Describe API so field mappings can be generated automatically. Columns and Data Types is specific to Amazon Aurora and Custom Objects to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Primary and Foreign Keys Constraints used to identify records and preserve relational integrity in syncs. Company Customer/account master in Gainsight CS; two-way synced with CRM and warehouse customer tables to keep ARR, owner, and renewal fields aligned. Primary and Foreign Keys is specific to Amazon Aurora and Company to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Read Replicas Reader endpoints that syncs can target to keep load off the writer. Person (People) Contacts associated to companies through the Company Person junction; synced two-way with CRM contacts and warehouse person records. Read Replicas is specific to Amazon Aurora and Person (People) to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical databases within a cluster that scope a sync connection. Relationship Sub-units within a company for multi-product or multi-team accounts; synced so each maps to the right contract in billing or an ERP. Databases is specific to Amazon Aurora and Relationship to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Aurora and Gainsight

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.

Amazon Aurora Gainsight Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon Aurora are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC: binlog on MySQL-compatible clusters, logical replication/decoding on PostgreSQL-compatible clusters.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Gainsight through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Gainsight Amazon Aurora Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gainsight for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on the ModifiedDate (GS Modified Date) system field, which is filterable and sortable on every object.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon Aurora: No API rate limits for wire-protocol access; throughput is bounded by instance class and connection limits.
  • Gainsight: Synchronous APIs are capped near 100 calls/min and 50,000/day; the asynchronous Bulk API allows 10 calls/hour and 100/day. Both are fixed-window limits, and the applicable per-hour and per-day limits are returned in the x-ratelimit-limit response header.
