Why teams connect Amazon Redshift and Gainsight

Get the data locked inside Gainsight into Amazon Redshift as live tables, and send results back where Gainsight can use them, without writing a pipeline.

Whatever Gainsight is used for, it accumulates data the rest of the company wants to analyze, and that data usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay for it.

Stacksync syncs Company, Person (People), Relationship, CTA (Call to Action) from Gainsight into tables in Amazon Redshift continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in Amazon Redshift can also be written back into fields in Gainsight where the tool can use them.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read Timeline Activities and Success Plan objectives into a reporting database for churn, QBR, and CSM-productivity dashboards.
  • 02 Keep Relationship records aligned with a billing system or ERP so multi-product customers map to the correct contracts and invoices.
  • 03 Centralize CRM, ERP, and product data in Redshift so analysts join it with warehouse tables.
  • 04 Publish finance rollups computed in Redshift back to spreadsheets or operational tools.

Common sync patterns

Cross-tool reporting

Combine Gainsight's data with data from every other synced system to answer questions no single tool can.

Where Gainsight accepts updates: operational write-back

Segments, scores, or reference values computed in Amazon Redshift sync back onto records in Gainsight, putting analysis where the work happens.

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Amazon Redshift preserves a queryable record even as data ages out of Gainsight or gets changed inside it.

What you can sync between Amazon Redshift and Gainsight

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 Redshift objects Gainsight objects How this pairing syncs
Databases Top-level containers within a cluster or serverless workgroup. Custom Objects Org-specific MDA tables with the __gc suffix; discoverable via the Describe API so field mappings can be generated automatically. Databases is specific to Amazon Redshift and Custom Objects to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces used to organize synced tables and control grants. Company Customer/account master in Gainsight CS; two-way synced with CRM and warehouse customer tables to keep ARR, owner, and renewal fields aligned. Schemas is specific to Amazon Redshift and Company to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Columnar tables used as sync destinations for SaaS and database data. Person (People) Contacts associated to companies through the Company Person junction; synced two-way with CRM contacts and warehouse person records. Tables is specific to Amazon Redshift and Person (People) to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views readable as modeled sources for reverse syncs. Relationship Sub-units within a company for multi-product or multi-team accounts; synced so each maps to the right contract in billing or an ERP. Views is specific to Amazon Redshift and Relationship to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed results that downstream syncs can read for performance. CTA (Call to Action) Risk and expansion alerts that drive CSM plays; often synced to ticketing or project tools so follow-up work is tracked where teams operate. Materialized Views is specific to Amazon Redshift and CTA (Call to Action) to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External Tables (Spectrum) S3-backed tables queryable through Redshift, readable in syncs. Scorecard Fact Health scores and measures per Company or Relationship; usage metrics from a warehouse are written in so scores reflect live telemetry. External Tables (Spectrum) is specific to Amazon Redshift and Scorecard Fact to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Redshift and Gainsight

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 Redshift Gainsight Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Amazon Redshift for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling or query-based diffing.

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

Gainsight Amazon Redshift Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gainsight for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on the ModifiedDate (GS Modified Date) system field, which is filterable and sortable on every object.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon Redshift: Bounded by cluster or serverless capacity and concurrency settings rather than API quotas.
  • Gainsight: Synchronous APIs are capped near 100 calls/min and 50,000/day; the asynchronous Bulk API allows 10 calls/hour and 100/day. Both are fixed-window limits, and the applicable per-hour and per-day limits are returned in the x-ratelimit-limit response header.
