Two-way sync
Changes in Amazon S3 or Neo4j instantly reflect in both systems. No stale data, no manual imports.
Keep Amazon S3 and Neo4j in sync without custom scripts. Cut weeks of integration work, eliminate silent data drift, and give your team a single, reliable source of truth.
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 Neo4j says a file exists and carries its name, location, and status, while Amazon S3 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 Indexes & Constraints, Databases, Users & Roles, Nodes in Neo4j with Objects, Object metadata, Object tags, Object versions in Amazon S3 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.
Tags, custom properties, owner, or status columns edited on a row in Neo4j write back to the matching file's metadata in Amazon S3, and metadata changed in Amazon S3 updates the row, so the two never disagree about a file.
Where a record in Neo4j references a file in Amazon S3, such as a contract, an image, an export, or an upload, the reference, path, and status stay consistent as files are renamed, moved, or replaced, so stored links keep resolving.
Files that arrive in a folder or bucket in Amazon S3 become rows in Neo4j as they land, so a database-driven process can pick them up without polling the storage system's API.
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 S3 objects | Neo4j objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buckets Top-level, region-scoped containers that hold objects; enumerated to discover the namespaces and prefixes a sync should cover. | Nodes Entity records (customers, products, accounts) written from source systems as labeled nodes. | Buckets is specific to Amazon S3 and Nodes to Neo4j — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Objects Files stored under a key; content is read with GET and written with PUT, and each object's key/size/ETag/LastModified is the unit indexed into a database. | Relationships Typed, directed edges that carry the connections syncs exist to model. | Objects is specific to Amazon S3 and Relationships to Neo4j — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Object metadata System metadata (Content-Type, size, ETag, LastModified) plus user-defined x-amz-meta-* headers; user metadata is fixed at write time and only changeable by rewriting the object. | Properties Key-value attributes on both nodes and relationships, mapped from source fields. | Object metadata is specific to Amazon S3 and Properties to Neo4j — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Object tags Up to 10 key-value tags per object, mutable in place via the tagging API independent of content, so classification and retention labels sync two-way without rewriting files. | Labels Node type markers used to map source tables or objects onto the graph. | Object tags is specific to Amazon S3 and Labels to Neo4j — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Object versions When bucket versioning is enabled every write creates a new version ID; prior versions and delete markers are readable for history and audit syncs. | Indexes & Constraints Uniqueness constraints and indexes that make MERGE-based upserts reliable and fast. | Object versions is specific to Amazon S3 and Indexes & Constraints to Neo4j — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Prefixes (folders) Logical path segments in object keys used to scope a sync and to parallelize throughput, since S3 rate limits partition by prefix. | Databases Named databases in a single instance that scope multi-tenant or multi-domain syncs. | Prefixes (folders) is specific to Amazon S3 and Databases to Neo4j — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
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.
DetectionAmazon S3 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. S3 Event Notifications push object-created, object-removed, and object-tagging events to SNS, SQS, Lambda, or EventBridge.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Neo4j through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
DetectionChanges in Neo4j are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Neo4j Change Data Capture on Enterprise and Aura streams graph changes.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Amazon S3 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Real-time sync, workflow automation, event queues, EDI, and monitoring, for every Amazon S3–Neo4j connection.
Changes in Amazon S3 or Neo4j instantly reflect in both systems. No stale data, no manual imports.
Trigger automated workflows whenever Amazon S3 or Neo4j data changes, update records, fire webhooks, or kick off sequences without brittle API scripts.
Handle millions of events per minute without losing a single Amazon S3 or Neo4j record.
Track your Amazon S3 ⇄ Neo4j sync health, view errors, and replay failed events in one click.
Transform legacy EDI complexity into simple database interactions between Amazon S3 and Neo4j.
Configure and sync within minutes, no code. Whether you sync 50k or 100M+ records, Stacksync handles the queues, infra, and plumbing. Integrations are non-invasive and need zero setup on your systems.
Authenticate Amazon S3 and Neo4j with each platform's native method — OAuth, API keys, or service accounts — plus secure options like SSH tunneling, IP whitelisting, and VPC peering.
Pick the Amazon S3 and Neo4j objects to sync — Stacksync auto-detects both schemas, including custom fields where the platform exposes them. Sync to existing tables, or let Stacksync create new ones with ideal data types.
Fields map automatically even when names and types differ. Stacksync handles transformation and type casting for you, zero configuration required.
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Amazon S3 and Neo4j: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Amazon S3's Buckets and Objects), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both Amazon S3 and Neo4j. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
Change detection on Amazon S3: S3 Event Notifications push object-created, object-removed, and object-tagging events to SNS, SQS, Lambda, or EventBridge; there is no modified-since query, so polling relies on each object's LastModified from ListObjectsV2. On Neo4j: Neo4j Change Data Capture on Enterprise and Aura streams graph changes; otherwise Cypher polling on timestamp properties. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
On the Neo4j side: Indexes & Constraints, Databases, Users & Roles, Nodes, plus custom fields where Neo4j exposes them. On the Amazon S3 side: Objects, Object metadata, Object tags, Object versions. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
Common patterns for Amazon S3 and Neo4j: File metadata kept in step; Records that point at documents; A landing zone for incoming files. Tags, custom properties, owner, or status columns edited on a row in Neo4j write back to the matching file's metadata in Amazon S3, and metadata changed in Amazon S3 updates the row, so the two never disagree about a file.
