Why teams connect Amazon Lightsail and Sharepoint

Keep Amazon Lightsail and Sharepoint in step: a row in Amazon Lightsail for every file in Sharepoint, 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 Sharepoint 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 Users and Grants, Managed Databases, Databases, Schemas in Amazon Lightsail with Lists, List items, Drive items (document libraries), Columns and content types in Sharepoint 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 Migrate data continuously from a Lightsail database to a larger managed database as an application outgrows the VPS tier.
  • 02 Sync a Lightsail-hosted application database with a CRM so customer records match what the app stores.
  • 03 Sync list columns and content types so database fields map onto SharePoint list fields and schema stays aligned as either side changes.
  • 04 Provision site and item permissions and sharing links from an IdP or access-management system so SharePoint access follows onboarding and offboarding.

Common sync patterns

A landing zone for incoming files

Files that arrive in a folder or bucket in Sharepoint 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 Sharepoint 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 Sharepoint 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 Sharepoint

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 Sharepoint objects How this pairing syncs
Databases Logical databases on the instance that scope a connection. Columns and content types Field definitions and content types on a site or list; read the schema and create columns so database fields map cleanly onto SharePoint list fields. Databases is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Columns and content types to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces used when selecting tables to sync. Permissions and sharing Role assignments and sharing links on sites, list items, and drive items; read and written to manage access, requiring Sites.Manage.All or Sites.FullControl.All scopes. Schemas is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Permissions and sharing to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational tables read from and written to at row level. Site pages Modern site pages via /sites/{id}/pages; read page content, layout, and metadata for indexing and content governance. Tables is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Site pages to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Query-backed read-only sources. Sites SharePoint site collections and subsites via /sites; read site properties and discover the document libraries (drives) and lists each site contains, addressed by hostname and site path or site ID. Views is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Sites to Sharepoint — 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. Lists Custom lists and libraries via /sites/{id}/lists; create and read lists along with their columns and content types so a target system can mirror or provision list definitions. Users and Grants is specific to Amazon Lightsail and Lists to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Managed Databases Lightsail-hosted MySQL or PostgreSQL instances that a sync connects to as standard databases. List items Rows in a SharePoint list via /lists/{id}/items with a fields facet of column values; full create, read, update, and delete, synced two-way with database rows. Managed Databases is specific to Amazon Lightsail and List items to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Lightsail and Sharepoint

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

Sharepoint Amazon Lightsail Sub-second propagation

DetectionSharepoint notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last.

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.
  • Sharepoint: SharePoint Online throttles per app, returning HTTP 429 (or 503) with a Retry-After header in seconds and IETF RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, and RateLimit-Reset headers; throttled requests still count toward limits, so clients honor the greater of Retry-After and RateLimit-Reset with exponential backoff.

How the Amazon Lightsail and Sharepoint connectors work

Amazon Lightsail

Integration surface
MySQL or PostgreSQL wire protocol (SQL) to the managed database endpoint
Authentication
Database credentials; public endpoint access must be enabled or a tunnel used
Change detection
Polling on timestamp or key columns; log-based CDC depends on engine parameter access, which is more limited than on full RDS
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API-style rate limits; capacity is fixed by the chosen Lightsail bundle

Sharepoint

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph REST API (graph.microsoft.com/v1.0 and beta) covering SharePoint sites, lists, list items, columns, content types, and document-library drives and drive items; plus the classic SharePoint REST API (_api/web) and CSOM. Supports Graph JSON $batch (up to 20 requests per call).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform (Microsoft Entra ID). An app registration holds delegated or application (app-only) scopes such as Sites.Read.All, Sites.ReadWrite.All, Sites.Selected, Sites.Manage.All, or Sites.FullControl.All, plus Files.ReadWrite.All for drive content; application permissions require tenant admin consent.
Change detection
Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last deltaLink; change-notification subscriptions (push webhooks) POST near-real-time notifications for list and drive/root changes to a notification URL and must be renewed before they expire. Classic SharePoint list webhooks are also available.
Capabilities

Rate limits
SharePoint Online throttles per app, returning HTTP 429 (or 503) with a Retry-After header in seconds and IETF RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, and RateLimit-Reset headers; throttled requests still count toward limits, so clients honor the greater of Retry-After and RateLimit-Reset with exponential backoff.
