Why teams connect Amazon DynamoDB and Vitally

Treat Vitally like part of your database: its records live in Amazon DynamoDB 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 DynamoDB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Account, User, Organization, Task from Vitally into Global Tables, Time to Live (TTL), Tables, Items in Amazon DynamoDB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Vitally 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

  • 01 Sync account health scores and lifecycle stages from Vitally into a CRM so sales sees churn risk before renewals.
  • 02 Mirror product-usage traits and NPS responses into a warehouse for retention and expansion reporting.
  • 03 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.
  • 04 Backfill or migrate records into DynamoDB from another database using BatchWriteItem, then keep the two stores in continuous sync.

Common sync patterns

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

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

Query the CRM like a database

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

Product events onto CRM records

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

What you can sync between Amazon DynamoDB and Vitally

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 Vitally objects How this pairing syncs
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. Conversation Customer conversations logged in Vitally; activity objects include parent object details in the payload. DynamoDB Streams is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Conversation to Vitally — 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. NPS Response NPS survey responses for account-health reporting. Global Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and NPS Response to Vitally — 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. Custom Trait Custom account and user traits for segmentation. Time to Live (TTL) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Custom Trait to Vitally — 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. Account Core customer account records with health scores and lifecycle traits; created, updated, retrieved, and listed via the REST API. Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Account to Vitally — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. User End users tied to accounts, including activity and custom traits. Items is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and User to Vitally — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Organization Parent organizations for hierarchical B2B account structures. Global secondary indexes (GSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Organization to Vitally — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon DynamoDB and Vitally

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 Vitally 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 Vitally through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Vitally Amazon DynamoDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionVitally notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Incremental polling on updatedAt cursors.

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.
  • Vitally: Default rate limit of 1,000 requests/min (token bucket); write operations consume more budget, headers expose remaining quota.

How the Amazon DynamoDB and Vitally 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.
