Why teams connect Amazon DynamoDB and Tinybird

Connect Amazon DynamoDB and Tinybird with one live, two-way sync: operational rows flow into the warehouse, and computed results flow back where systems can read them fast.

Operational databases and analytical warehouses want the same data at different moments. Analysts want Amazon DynamoDB's rows in Tinybird, current and joinable, without a change-data-capture pipeline to maintain. Engineers want the outputs of warehouse work, such as aggregates, features, and segments, available in Amazon DynamoDB where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in Amazon DynamoDB sync into Tinybird in real time, and result tables in Tinybird sync back into Amazon DynamoDB, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync order events from an ERP into Tinybird to serve low-latency operational analytics endpoints.
  • 02 Compute aggregates in Tinybird and write the results back to CRM fields for scoring and routing.
  • 03 Mirror a high-write DynamoDB table into a relational database so teams can join NoSQL application data against relational tables for reporting.
  • 04 Use DynamoDB Streams as a change-data-capture source to push item INSERT, MODIFY, and REMOVE events into a CRM, search index, or operational database in near-real-time.

Common sync patterns

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Tinybird and keep Amazon DynamoDB focused on its operational workload.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from Amazon DynamoDB land in Tinybird as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Tinybird sync into Amazon DynamoDB, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

What you can sync between Amazon DynamoDB and Tinybird

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 Tinybird objects How this pairing syncs
Global secondary indexes (GSIs) Alternate key projections that let you Query by non-key attributes without a full table Scan; read-only views maintained automatically by DynamoDB. Materialized Views Pipes materialized into new Data Sources for pre-aggregation at ingest time. Global secondary indexes (GSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Materialized Views to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Workspaces Project boundary that scopes Data Sources, Pipes, and tokens for a sync. Local secondary indexes (LSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Workspaces to Tinybird — 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. Tokens Scoped credentials that control read and append rights per resource. DynamoDB Streams is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Tokens to Tinybird — 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. Data Sources ClickHouse-backed tables that receive ingested rows; the write target for syncs into Tinybird. Global Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Data Sources to Tinybird — 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. Pipes Chained SQL nodes that transform Data Sources into query-ready results. Time to Live (TTL) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Pipes to Tinybird — 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. API Endpoints Published Pipe outputs exposed as parameterized HTTP queries; the main read surface. Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and API Endpoints to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon DynamoDB and Tinybird

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 Tinybird 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 applied to Tinybird as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Tinybird Amazon DynamoDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Tinybird for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Append-oriented ingestion.

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.
  • Tinybird: Subject to the platform's ingestion and query rate limits; batch appends where possible.

How the Amazon DynamoDB and Tinybird 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.
