Why teams connect Amazon RDS and Seismic

Treat Seismic 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 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 RDS, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors User Groups, Teamsites, LiveSend Links, Digital Sales Rooms from Seismic into Views, Columns, Primary and Unique Keys, Read Replicas in Amazon RDS with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Seismic 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 Extract content-interaction and LiveSend engagement from the Reporting API v2 into a warehouse to tie asset views to CRM Opportunities.
  • 02 Sync Library Content metadata and Custom Property Schemas with a DAM or PIM so one taxonomy governs assets across systems.
  • 03 Bi-directional sync between an RDS database and a CRM so application data and sales data stay consistent without custom integration code
  • 04 Mirror SaaS objects into RDS tables so product features can join business data with application data in one query

Common sync patterns

Product events onto CRM records

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

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Seismic API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

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

What you can sync between Amazon RDS and Seismic

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 Seismic objects How this pairing syncs
Columns Field-level mapping targets, typed per the underlying engine. Digital Sales Rooms Buyer-facing microsites (DSRs); lifecycle and content-change events surface via webhooks, currently marked Early Access. Columns is specific to Amazon RDS and Digital Sales Rooms to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. Reporting Activities Content-interaction, engagement, and usage analytics extracted read-only through the ETL-oriented Reporting API v2 for a warehouse. Primary and Unique Keys is specific to Amazon RDS and Reporting Activities to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Read Replicas Low-impact read endpoints often used as the source side of a sync. Library Content Documents, decks, and assets stored in teamsites; created, moved, and retrieved via the Content Management API, each with a contentId. Read Replicas is specific to Amazon RDS and Library Content to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures Engine-specific logic that can react to synced rows. Content Versions Version history for a library item; new versions upload via API and old ones expire, with events firing on ContentManager webhooks. Stored Procedures is specific to Amazon RDS and Content Versions to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Engine-level databases on the instance that scope a sync's reads and writes. Users User records managed through SCIM 2.0 and legacy user endpoints; created, updated, and deactivated for provisioning sync. Databases is specific to Amazon RDS and Users to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables. User Groups Group definitions and membership that govern content access; synced from an IdP or HRIS to keep permissions current. Schemas is specific to Amazon RDS and User Groups to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon RDS and Seismic

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

Seismic Amazon RDS Sub-second propagation

DetectionSeismic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for content, version, user, group, workflow, DSR, and LiveSend events.

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.
  • Seismic: Tiered per-endpoint limits over a rolling 60-second window; exceeding returns HTTP 429, with X-Seismic-Remaining-Calls and X-Seismic-Total-Calls headers.
