Why teams connect Amazon Aurora and Intercom

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

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

Stacksync mirrors Data Events, Custom Data Attributes, Tags, Segments from Intercom into Primary and Foreign Keys, Read Replicas, Databases, Schemas in Amazon Aurora with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Intercom with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Mirror conversations and tickets into a warehouse for support analytics and SLA reporting
  • Keep custom data attributes updated from billing or ERP systems so message segments reflect current plan and spend
  • Stream row-level changes from Aurora into a warehouse for near-real-time analytics without batch exports.
  • Consolidate several Aurora clusters into one reporting database.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Intercom arrive as row changes in Amazon Aurora, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Intercom become tables in Amazon Aurora you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Amazon Aurora sync onto the matching records in Intercom, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

What you can sync between Amazon Aurora and Intercom

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 Intercom objects
Read Replicas Reader endpoints that syncs can target to keep load off the writer. Articles Help center content is accessible via API for knowledge sync and audits.
Databases Logical databases within a cluster that scope a sync connection. Contacts A single contact model covers both users and leads, distinguished by a role attribute.
Schemas Namespaces (PostgreSQL) or database-level grouping (MySQL) used in table selection. Companies Company records group contacts and carry plan and account attributes used in segmentation.
Tables Relational tables synced bi-directionally at row level. Conversations Support and sales threads sync outward for analytics and CRM context.
Views Read-only query-backed sources for downstream syncs. Tickets Structured ticket records track issues alongside conversational threads.
Materialized Views Precomputed result sets (PostgreSQL-compatible clusters) readable as sources. Data Events Behavioral events pushed in from product databases trigger messages and flows.
