Why teams connect Apache Pinot and BetterContact

Get the data locked inside BetterContact into Apache Pinot as live tables, and send results back where BetterContact can use them, without writing a pipeline.

BetterContact is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Apache Pinot, so Apache Pinot always reflects the current state of BetterContact — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

Whatever BetterContact 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.

Common use cases

  • 01 Backfill a warehouse of contacts with waterfall enrichment across 20+ data providers.
  • 02 Feed outbound sequencing tools with verified contact data before campaigns launch.
  • 03 Keep upsert-enabled real-time tables aligned with mutable operational records streamed from source systems.
  • 04 Query per-account usage metrics from Pinot and sync them into CRM fields so sales sees product activity.

Common sync patterns

Where BetterContact accepts updates: operational write-back

Segments, scores, or reference values computed in Apache Pinot sync back onto records in BetterContact, putting analysis where the work happens.

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Apache Pinot preserves a queryable record even as data ages out of BetterContact or gets changed inside it.

Analytics on BetterContact's data

Records and events from BetterContact land in Apache Pinot as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

What you can sync between Apache Pinot and BetterContact

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.

Apache Pinot objects BetterContact objects How this pairing syncs
Tables The queryable unit, defined as offline, real-time, or hybrid; the main read target. Enriched Contact Verified work emails and mobile numbers with job title, LinkedIn profile, location, and skills. Tables is specific to Apache Pinot and Enriched Contact to BetterContact — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Column definitions (dimensions, metrics, time columns) mapped during integration setup. Company Company data returned with each contact: name, domain, HQ location, industry, employee count. Schemas is specific to Apache Pinot and Company to BetterContact — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Segments Immutable data files that batch ingestion uploads and the cluster serves. Lead Finder Search Prospect discovery by people and company filters, returning enriched lead profiles. Segments is specific to Apache Pinot and Lead Finder Search to BetterContact — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Real-time Tables Tables fed continuously from streams like Kafka, including upsert-enabled tables. Enrichment Request Batch or single submissions of up to 100 contacts per request for waterfall enrichment. Real-time Tables is specific to Apache Pinot and Enrichment Request to BetterContact — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Pinot and BetterContact

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.

Apache Pinot BetterContact Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Apache Pinot for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Data enters Pinot via streaming ingestion or segment upload, not row-level writes.

DeliveryBetterContact does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: BetterContact's output flows back as field updates on the originating Apache Pinot records.

BetterContact Apache Pinot Sub-second propagation

DetectionBetterContact notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Job-based delivery — enrichment results arrive by webhook push or polling of the results endpoint.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Pinot: No fixed API quotas; query throughput depends on broker and server sizing.
  • BetterContact: Batches capped at 100 contacts per enrichment request.
