Why teams connect AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Nimble

Treat Nimble like part of your database: its records live in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Activities, Notes, Tags, Custom fields from Nimble into Tables, Rows, Columns, Primary keys and constraints in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Nimble with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate contacts from marketing tools into Nimble while writing Nimble edits back to avoid duplicates.
  • 02 Feed Nimble activity and task data into reporting dashboards without manual CSV exports.
  • 03 Feed operational dashboards from a read replica while the writer handles sync traffic.
  • 04 Expose ERP records such as customers, orders, and invoices as Postgres tables the engineering team can query and update with plain SQL.

Common sync patterns

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Nimble become tables in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL sync onto the matching records in Nimble, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Nimble API, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Nimble

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.

AWS Aurora PostgreSQL objects Nimble objects How this pairing syncs
Primary keys and constraints Identify rows for upserts and enforce integrity on sync writes. Deals Pipeline records linked to contacts, synced to keep revenue systems aligned with sales activity Primary keys and constraints is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Deals to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views and materialized views Usable as read-only sources for filtered or precomputed sync datasets. Tasks To-do items tied to contacts, mirrored into work-management tools or reporting tables Views and materialized views is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Tasks to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Foreign keys Relationship metadata that syncs can translate into object references elsewhere. Activities Calls, events, and interaction history used for engagement reporting outside Nimble Foreign keys is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Activities to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Replication slots and publications The logical replication objects that power log-based CDC. Notes Free-text records attached to contacts, replicated for a complete account timeline Replication slots and publications is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Notes to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases and schemas PostgreSQL's two-level namespace scopes which tables a sync connection targets. Tags Segmentation labels that map to list membership or filters in downstream systems Databases and schemas is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Tags to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The core sync unit; rows are matched across systems by primary key. Custom fields Account-defined contact attributes that carry enrichment or internal identifiers Tables is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Custom fields to Nimble — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Nimble

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.

AWS Aurora PostgreSQL Nimble Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication (WAL decoding through replication slots), with timestamp polling as a fallback.

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

Nimble AWS Aurora PostgreSQL Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Nimble for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on record modification timestamps.

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

Rate-limit considerations
