Why teams connect Amazon DynamoDB and Monday

Mirror Monday's data into Amazon DynamoDB 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 Monday 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 DynamoDB.

Stacksync mirrors Column values, Groups, Updates, Users from Monday into Local secondary indexes (LSIs), DynamoDB Streams, Global Tables, Time to Live (TTL) in Amazon DynamoDB 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 Monday, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror monday.com Boards, Groups, and Subitems into a warehouse for cross-project reporting on status and timelines without CSV exports.
  • 02 Push support tickets or orders from an operational database into monday.com Items, then read status Column values back when work completes.
  • 03 Backfill or migrate records into DynamoDB from another database using BatchWriteItem, then keep the two stores in continuous sync.
  • 04 Mirror a high-write DynamoDB table into a relational database so teams can join NoSQL application data against relational tables for reporting.

Common sync patterns

Automate Monday from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in Amazon DynamoDB and Stacksync propagates the change into Monday, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Monday arrive as row changes in Amazon DynamoDB, 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.

What you can sync between Amazon DynamoDB and Monday

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 DynamoDB objects Monday objects How this pairing syncs
Items Individual schemaless records (attributes up to 400 KB each); read with GetItem, Query, and Scan and written with PutItem or BatchWriteItem, so write is supported here. Items Rows within a board and the primary record; synced two-way and created, updated, archived, or deleted via GraphQL mutations. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Local secondary indexes (LSIs) Extra sort keys within the same partition key, defined at table creation; queried like the base table for alternate access patterns. Boards Table-like containers that hold items; each board maps to a synced table, and its columns define the field mapping. Local secondary indexes (LSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Boards to Monday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
DynamoDB Streams Ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with old/new image views and 24-hour retention; the native change-data-capture source Stacksync reads for near-real-time sync. Subitems Nested rows under items, stored on a separate hidden board; synced as a child table linked to the parent item. DynamoDB Streams is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Subitems to Monday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Global Tables Multi-region, active-active replicas of a table kept in sync by DynamoDB; each region is read and written locally with last-writer-wins conflict resolution. Column values Typed fields (status, date, people, numbers, connect-boards); polymorphic JSON usually written together via change_multiple_column_values. Global Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Column values to Monday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Time to Live (TTL) Per-item expiry timestamps; DynamoDB deletes expired items in the background and emits a Streams REMOVE record for each deletion. Groups Named sections that group items inside a board; synced as a grouping attribute or category field on the row. Time to Live (TTL) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Groups to Monday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Top-level containers, each with a partition key and optional sort key; Stacksync syncs a table as a stream of items with full read and write via PutItem, UpdateItem, and DeleteItem. Updates Comment and activity threads attached to items; read out into a database for reporting or written back as notes. Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Updates to Monday — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon DynamoDB and Monday

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 DynamoDB Monday Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon DynamoDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. DynamoDB Streams emit ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with KEYS_ONLY, NEW_IMAGE, OLD_IMAGE, or NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES views.

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

Monday Amazon DynamoDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionMonday notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Board-scoped webhooks (create_item, change_column_value, item_deleted, and similar) for real-time events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon DynamoDB: Throughput is metered in read/write capacity units (provisioned or on-demand): 1 WCU = one 1 KB write per second, 1 RCU = one strongly-consistent 4 KB read per second. Exceeding capacity or the ~3,000 RCU / 1,000 WCU per-partition ceiling returns ProvisionedThroughputExceededException with throttling.
  • Monday: Complexity-budget limits: a single query caps at 5M complexity points and ~10M points/min per user token (1M on trial/free) over a sliding 60s window.

How the Amazon DynamoDB and Monday connectors work

Amazon DynamoDB

Integration surface
AWS SDK / low-level HTTPS JSON API at dynamodb.<region>.amazonaws.com (PutItem, GetItem, UpdateItem, DeleteItem, Query, Scan, BatchWriteItem, TransactWriteItems), plus PartiQL (ExecuteStatement) for SQL-style access and DynamoDB Streams for change capture.
Authentication
AWS Signature Version 4 (SigV4) signed requests using an IAM access key ID and secret key, or temporary STS credentials from an assumed IAM role; IAM policies scope access down to table and item level.
Change detection
DynamoDB Streams emit ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with KEYS_ONLY, NEW_IMAGE, OLD_IMAGE, or NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES views and 24-hour retention, read via shard iterators (or Kinesis Data Streams for longer retention). No native HTTP webhooks.
