Why teams connect Amazon Redshift and Newrelic

Close the gap between analytics and operations: Amazon Redshift holds the record while Newrelic runs the day-to-day work, and Stacksync keeps the two in step in real time, in both directions.

Amazon Redshift is the central store where teams keep Users and Groups, Databases, Schemas, Tables for reporting and analysis; Newrelic runs the operational side of engineering work — tracking issues, moving messages and events, watching systems, and managing users and access. The two overlap wherever the same operational data matters to both: the NRQL Query Results, Entities, Workloads, Synthetics Monitors produced in Newrelic are exactly what analysts want to measure in Amazon Redshift, and the curated rows in Amazon Redshift are what should drive the next action in Newrelic. When that overlap is bridged by nightly ETL or hand-written scripts, dashboards lag a day behind reality and the tools that should react to warehouse signals never see them.

Stacksync syncs Users and Groups, Databases, Schemas, Tables in Amazon Redshift with NRQL Query Results, Entities, Workloads, Synthetics Monitors in Newrelic field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync matches records on a stable external key, keeps every copy consistent, and resolves conflicts by rules you set — so analytics and operations work from the same current data instead of two drifting copies.

Common use cases

  • 01 Feed customer 360 tables built in Redshift to support and success platforms.
  • 02 Centralize CRM, ERP, and product data in Redshift so analysts join it with warehouse tables.
  • 03 Provision and update Dashboards and Alert Policies from a config repository or database through NerdGraph so definitions stay versioned and consistent across accounts and environments.
  • 04 Push custom business or pipeline Events and Metrics into New Relic through the Event and Metric APIs so they appear alongside APM data in dashboards and NRQL.

Common sync patterns

Warehouse signals reach Newrelic

A row scored, flagged, or enriched in Amazon Redshift creates or updates the matching record in Newrelic, so the operational tool acts on the same data the analysts already see.

Backfill history, then stay live

Load the existing set of NRQL Query Results, Entities, Workloads, Synthetics Monitors into Amazon Redshift once, then keep it current with every change — you get full history plus real-time updates without a separate pipeline.

No batch jobs to babysit

New and changed records move field by field the moment they change, replacing scheduled ETL and one-off scripts that fail quietly and leave stale rows behind.

What you can sync between Amazon Redshift and Newrelic

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 Newrelic objects How this pairing syncs
Tables Columnar tables used as sync destinations for SaaS and database data. Synthetics Monitors Synthetic uptime and scripted browser checks managed through NerdGraph synthetics mutations (create, update, delete); monitor results are read via NRQL for availability and latency reporting. Tables is specific to Amazon Redshift and Synthetics Monitors to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views readable as modeled sources for reverse syncs. Custom Events Custom events posted write-only to the Event API on insights-collector with a License/Ingest key; business or pipeline events pushed into New Relic to enrich dashboards, then queried back out with NRQL. Views is specific to Amazon Redshift and Custom Events to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed results that downstream syncs can read for performance. Change Tracking (Deployments) Deployment and change markers recorded through NerdGraph changeTrackingCreateDeployment; written from CI/CD to annotate charts, and read back via NRQL on the Deployment event for release correlation. Materialized Views is specific to Amazon Redshift and Change Tracking (Deployments) to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External Tables (Spectrum) S3-backed tables queryable through Redshift, readable in syncs. Dashboards Dashboard definitions and widgets via NerdGraph dashboardCreate/dashboardUpdate/dashboardDelete mutations and entity queries, with full CRUD; exported for backup and audit or provisioned and updated programmatically from a source of truth. External Tables (Spectrum) is specific to Amazon Redshift and Dashboards to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures SQL procedures sometimes invoked around load steps. Alert Policies & Conditions Alert policies and NRQL alert conditions managed through NerdGraph alertsPolicy and alertsNrqlCondition mutations with full create, update, and delete; read out for audit or provisioned from a config source so alerting stays consistent across accounts. Stored Procedures is specific to Amazon Redshift and Alert Policies & Conditions to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Groups Principals used to grant a sync connection scoped access. NRQL Query Results Telemetry events, metrics, logs, and spans queried through NerdGraph's nrql field (or the legacy Insights query API) over time windows; read-only and bounded by data retention, commonly streamed into a warehouse for long-term analysis. Users and Groups is specific to Amazon Redshift and NRQL Query Results to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Redshift and Newrelic

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

Newrelic Amazon Redshift Sub-second propagation

DetectionNewrelic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. NRQL polling over timestamp windows for telemetry (events, metrics, logs, spans).

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.
  • Newrelic: NerdGraph allows 25 concurrent requests per user and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; NRQL run via APIs is capped at 3,000 queries per account per minute with a 5-second default timeout and about 5,000 data points per response. The Event API accepts 1MB per POST and 100,000 POSTs per minute per account.

SQL over JDBC/ODBC (PostgreSQL-derived protocol); Redshift Data API over HTTPS
Authentication
Database credentials or IAM-based authentication

Newrelic

Integration surface
NerdGraph (GraphQL) plus REST data-ingest APIs (Event, Metric, Log, Trace) and the legacy REST API v2
Authentication
User API key (prefixed NRAK-) sent in the API-Key header for NerdGraph queries and mutations; the data-ingest APIs (Event, Metric, Log) use a License/Ingest key in the Api-Key header. Keys, endpoints, and data are region-scoped (US, EU, JP).
Change detection
NRQL polling over timestamp windows for telemetry (events, metrics, logs, spans); config objects such as dashboards, alert policies, and workloads carry no modified-date and are diffed on each run. Alert workflows can push outbound webhook notifications for near-real-time alerting. No CDC feed.
