Why teams connect Amazon RDS and Attio

Treat Attio like part of your database: its records live in Amazon RDS as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and data teams mirror Attio into Amazon RDS so CRM data is queryable next to application data. Attio People, Companies, and Deals sync into RDS Tables with Primary and Unique Keys, and updates written to those Tables flow back into Attio, keeping the CRM and the database consistent.

Stacksync mirrors Custom objects, People, Companies, Users from Attio into Schemas, Tables, Views, Columns in Amazon RDS with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Attio 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 Score Companies in RDS with SQL and surface results in Attio Workspaces.
  • 02 Keep Attio Users and ownership data available to internal tools that read from the database.
  • 03 Backfill People records in Attio from authoritative rows in RDS.
  • 04 Sync companies, people, and deals with Postgres so ops teams enrich and update CRM records with SQL.

Common sync patterns

CRM mirror in SQL

Attio People and Companies sync into RDS Tables the data team joins against product usage.

Deal enrichment write-back

rows updated in RDS push computed fields onto Attio Deals for the sales team.

Custom object sync

Attio Custom objects map to dedicated RDS Tables with matching Columns.

What you can sync between Amazon RDS and Attio

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 RDS objects Attio objects How this pairing syncs
Databases Engine-level databases on the instance that scope a sync's reads and writes. Users Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Databases is specific to Amazon RDS and Users to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables. Deals Pipeline records; read out for revenue reporting and written to from automation. Schemas is specific to Amazon RDS and Deals to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The core sync target; rows map to records in connected SaaS systems. Workspaces Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Tables is specific to Amazon RDS and Workspaces to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Custom objects Workspace-defined objects that behave like standard ones in the API. Views is specific to Amazon RDS and Custom objects to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Columns Field-level mapping targets, typed per the underlying engine. People Standard person object; synced with marketing tools and warehouse person tables. Columns is specific to Amazon RDS and People to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. Companies Standard company object; matched to billing and product accounts in two-way syncs. Primary and Unique Keys is specific to Amazon RDS and Companies to Attio — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon RDS and Attio

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 RDS Attio Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon RDS are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Engine-native log-based CDC: MySQL/MariaDB binlog, PostgreSQL logical replication, SQL Server CDC.

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

Attio Amazon RDS Sub-second propagation

DetectionAttio notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on record and list-entry events, with polling as a fallback.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon RDS: No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance class, storage IOPS, and connection limits.
  • Attio: Subject to the platform's published API rate limits.
