Why teams connect Amazon Lightsail and Egnyte

Keep Amazon Lightsail and Egnyte in step: a row in Amazon Lightsail for every file in Egnyte, with names, paths, metadata, and status staying consistent in real time, in both directions.

A database holds structured records; a storage system holds the files those records depend on, such as contracts, images, exports, uploads, and documents. The two describe the same things from opposite sides: a row in Amazon Lightsail says a file exists and carries its name, location, and status, while Egnyte holds the bytes. Linked only by a hand-kept path or a one-off script, the two drift the moment a file is renamed, moved, or deleted and the record still points at where it used to be.

Stacksync syncs Managed Databases, Databases, Schemas, Tables in Amazon Lightsail with Users, Groups, Permissions, Links in Egnyte bi-directionally and in real time. File attributes, including name, path or object key, size, type, modified time, owner, and tags or custom properties, map field by field to columns on the matching row, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds. New files appear as rows, metadata edits travel in the direction you choose, and deletes stay consistent, with conflict rules you set in place of nightly reconciliation scripts.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync a Lightsail-hosted application database with a CRM so customer records match what the app stores.
  • 02 Push cleaned or enriched records from central systems back into the Lightsail database behind a small web app.
  • 03 Write custom Metadata such as classification tags and project fields onto Files and Folders from a governance or DMS system, and read it back for reporting.
  • 04 Mirror folder Permissions from a directory or access-management system so entitlements stay consistent across teams.

Common sync patterns

A landing zone for incoming files

Files that arrive in a folder or bucket in Egnyte become rows in Amazon Lightsail as they land, so a database-driven process can pick them up without polling the storage system's API.

Continuous archival to file storage

Rows from Amazon Lightsail are written out to Egnyte as files on a schedule or as they change, giving a durable, low-cost copy for backup, compliance, or a data lake, without a custom export job to maintain.

A queryable index of the file store

Every file or object in Egnyte shows up as a row in Amazon Lightsail, with its name, folder or key, size, type, and modified date as columns, so the contents of the store can be listed, filtered, and joined like any other table.

What you can sync between Amazon Lightsail and Egnyte

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 Lightsail objects Egnyte objects How this pairing syncs
Managed Databases Lightsail-hosted MySQL or PostgreSQL instances that a sync connects to as standard databases. Events and Audit reports File, login, permission, and sharing activity read via the Events API and Audit Reporting API; consumed read-only for compliance. Managed Databases is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Events and Audit reports to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical databases on the instance that scope a connection. Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. Databases is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Files to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces used when selecting tables to sync. Folders Folder hierarchy managed via the fs endpoint (create, move, rename, delete); the tree structure is mirrored during sync. Schemas is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Folders to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational tables read from and written to at row level. Users Accounts managed via the Users API; provisioned, updated, and deactivated in sync with an HRIS or identity provider. Tables is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Users to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Query-backed read-only sources. Groups Groups and membership managed via the Groups API; kept aligned with directory or IdP groups that drive folder access. Views is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Groups to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Grants Database accounts used to give the sync connection scoped access. Permissions Folder permissions listed, set, and removed via the Permissions API; effective permission for a user/folder is computable. Users and Grants is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Permissions to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Lightsail and Egnyte

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 Lightsail Egnyte Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Amazon Lightsail for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on timestamp or key columns.

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

Egnyte Amazon Lightsail Sub-second propagation

DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon Lightsail: No API-style rate limits; capacity is fixed by the chosen Lightsail bundle.
  • Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
