Why teams connect Amazon SES and Exasol

Land the messages, calls, and events from Amazon SES in Exasol as live tables, and write results back, without building or maintaining a pipeline.

Amazon SES produces a constant stream of activity — messages sent and received, calls placed and answered, meetings held, and the delivery and engagement events attached to them. That record is what the rest of the company wants to analyze, and it usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay to get it out.

Stacksync syncs Suppression List, Verified Identities, Configuration Sets, Sending Events from Amazon SES into tables in Exasol in real time, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the connection works in both directions, results computed in Exasol — segments, contact updates, suppression flags — can be written back into fields in Amazon SES wherever it exposes them, so analysis lands where outreach actually happens.

Common use cases

  • 01 Push warehouse or CRM audience segments into SES as Contacts using CreateContact or a bulk CreateImportJob (up to 1M contacts per job) to feed marketing sends.
  • 02 Stream SES sending events (delivery, bounce, complaint, open, click) from a configuration-set event destination into a warehouse for deliverability reporting.
  • 03 Keep dimension tables such as customers and products aligned with the systems of record.
  • 04 Load CRM and ERP records into Exasol tables on a schedule so analysts query fresh operational data.

Common sync patterns

Communications analytics without ETL

Messages, calls, and events from Amazon SES arrive in Exasol as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a day behind.

Engagement and delivery on live data

Sends, opens, clicks, bounces, and call outcomes from Amazon SES land in Exasol as they happen, so deliverability and response monitoring stop lagging the reality they describe.

Activity joined with everything else

Combine Amazon SES's activity with the CRM, product, and support data already in Exasol to attribute outcomes to the touches that drove them, which no single tool can do alone.

What you can sync between Amazon SES and Exasol

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 SES objects Exasol objects How this pairing syncs
Contact Lists One list per AWS account, subdivided into Topics that group subscriptions; read and write via CreateContactList and GetContactList. Users and roles Grant read/write access for the dedicated integration account. Contact Lists is specific to Amazon SES and Users and roles to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Email Templates Reusable subject/HTML/text templates with replacement variables; synced via CreateEmailTemplate, GetEmailTemplate, ListEmailTemplates, and UpdateEmailTemplate. Schemas Namespaces that group the tables a sync reads from or writes into. Email Templates is specific to Amazon SES and Schemas to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Suppression List Addresses auto-added on bounce or complaint; read with ListSuppressedDestinations and written with Put/DeleteSuppressedDestination to control re-sends. Tables Primary sync target; columnar relational tables written with standard SQL. Suppression List is specific to Amazon SES and Tables to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Verified Identities Email-address and domain identities cleared to send; managed via CreateEmailIdentity, ListEmailIdentities, GetEmailIdentity (DKIM and verification status). Views Read-only query surfaces often used as curated sources for reverse ETL. Verified Identities is specific to Amazon SES and Views to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Configuration Sets Named send-time rule groups that attach event destinations, IP pools, and suppression options; managed via Create/List ConfigurationSet operations. Virtual schemas Federated views over external sources; useful for deciding what needs physical replication. Configuration Sets is specific to Amazon SES and Virtual schemas to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sending Events Per-message send, delivery, bounce, complaint, open, and click events; not on any API, read from a configuration-set event destination (SNS/EventBridge/Firehose). UDF scripts In-database functions that can transform synced data after load. Sending Events is specific to Amazon SES and UDF scripts to Exasol — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon SES and Exasol

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 SES Exasol Sub-second propagation

DetectionAmazon SES notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Message events (delivery, bounce, complaint, open, click) are pushed in near real time through configuration-set event destinations.

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

Exasol Amazon SES Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Exasol for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with timestamp or key columns.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon SES: Every SES API action except SendEmail, SendRawEmail, and SendTemplatedEmail is throttled to 1 request/second per Region; the send rate and 24-hour sending quota are account-specific, adjustable, and per Region.
  • Exasol: No API quota; concurrency is bounded by cluster resources and session limits.

How the Amazon SES and Exasol connectors work

Amazon SES

Integration surface
AWS SES API v2 (REST/JSON over HTTPS) plus an SMTP sending interface
Authentication
AWS IAM credentials (access key + secret) signed with Signature Version 4, or an assumed IAM role via STS; the SMTP interface uses SMTP credentials derived from an IAM user
Change detection
Message events (delivery, bounce, complaint, open, click) are pushed in near real time through configuration-set event destinations (SNS/EventBridge/Firehose); contacts, templates, and suppression entries are polled via List/Get operations
Capabilities

Rate limits
Every SES API action except SendEmail, SendRawEmail, and SendTemplatedEmail is throttled to 1 request/second per Region; the send rate and 24-hour sending quota are account-specific, adjustable, and per Region

Exasol

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC drivers and a WebSocket-based client protocol
Authentication
Database credentials (username and password)
Change detection
Polling with timestamp or key columns; Exasol does not expose a transaction-log change feed to clients
