Why teams connect Amazon S3 and Redis Enterprise

Keep Redis Enterprise and Amazon S3 in step: a row in Redis Enterprise for every file in Amazon S3, with names, paths, metadata, and status staying consistent in real time, in both directions.

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 Redis Enterprise 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 Streams, Pub/Sub channels, Search indexes, Keys (Strings) in Redis Enterprise with Object metadata, Object tags, Object versions, Prefixes (folders) 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.

Common use cases

  • 01 Cache CRM or ERP records into Redis hashes so applications read customer data with sub-millisecond in-memory latency instead of hitting SaaS APIs.
  • 02 Sync Postgres reference tables into RedisJSON documents that power API responses and personalization lookups.
  • 03 Index every new Object's key, size, LastModified, and user metadata into a Postgres catalog table so applications query S3 contents in SQL instead of paging ListObjectsV2.
  • 04 Two-way sync Object tags with a database so retention or classification labels set in an internal app write back onto S3 objects via the tagging API without rewriting the files.

Common sync patterns

A queryable index of the file store

Every file or object in Amazon S3 shows up as a row in Redis Enterprise, with its name, folder or key, size, type, and modified date as columns, so the contents of the store can be listed, filtered, and joined like any other table.

File metadata kept in step

Tags, custom properties, owner, or status columns edited on a row in Redis Enterprise 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.

Records that point at documents

Where a record in Redis Enterprise 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.

What you can sync between Amazon S3 and Redis Enterprise

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 Redis Enterprise 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. Search indexes Secondary indexes (RediSearch) that make synced hashes and JSON documents queryable. Buckets is specific to Amazon S3 and Search indexes to Redis Enterprise — 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. Keys (Strings) Simple key-value pairs used to cache individual synced records or lookup values. Objects is specific to Amazon S3 and Keys (Strings) to Redis Enterprise — 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. Hashes Field-value maps that commonly hold one synced row per hash, keyed by record ID. Object metadata is specific to Amazon S3 and Hashes to Redis Enterprise — 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. JSON documents Native JSON storage (RedisJSON) for nested records synced from APIs or document stores. Object tags is specific to Amazon S3 and JSON documents to Redis Enterprise — 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. Sets Unordered unique-member collections used for membership checks like segment or ID lists. Object versions is specific to Amazon S3 and Sets to Redis Enterprise — 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. Sorted Sets Score-ordered collections used for rankings, priority queues, and time-ordered indexes. Prefixes (folders) is specific to Amazon S3 and Sorted Sets to Redis Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon S3 and Redis Enterprise

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 S3 Redis Enterprise Sub-second propagation

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 applied to Redis Enterprise as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Redis Enterprise Amazon S3 Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Redis Enterprise for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Keyspace notifications over pub/sub or reads from Redis Streams.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Amazon S3 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon S3: S3 sustains at least 3,500 PUT/COPY/POST/DELETE and 5,500 GET/HEAD requests per second per partitioned prefix and scales higher automatically; bursts can return HTTP 503 SlowDown while it repartitions.
  • Redis Enterprise: Throughput is bounded by provisioned cluster capacity rather than published API rate limits.

How the Amazon S3 and Redis Enterprise connectors work

Amazon S3

Integration surface
S3 REST API (also via AWS SDKs and the S3-compatible endpoint)

AWS IAM credentials — an access key ID and secret access key signed with AWS Signature Version 4; supports temporary STS credentials and cross-account IAM roles
Change detection
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

Redis Enterprise
