Why teams connect BetterContact and Databricks

Get the data locked inside BetterContact into Databricks 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 Databricks, so Databricks 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 Enrich new CRM leads with verified emails and mobile numbers as they are created, writing results back to the CRM record.
  • 02 Backfill a warehouse of contacts with waterfall enrichment across 20+ data providers.
  • 03 Serve ML feature outputs computed in Databricks to production apps through a synced operational store.
  • 04 Land CRM and ERP records in Delta tables continuously so lakehouse models work from current operational data.

Common sync patterns

Where BetterContact accepts updates: operational write-back

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

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Databricks 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 Databricks as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

What you can sync between BetterContact and Databricks

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.

BetterContact objects Databricks objects How this pairing syncs
Enriched Contact Verified work emails and mobile numbers with job title, LinkedIn profile, location, and skills. Catalogs Top level of the Unity Catalog namespace, scoping which schemas a sync can address. Enriched Contact is specific to BetterContact and Catalogs to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Company Company data returned with each contact: name, domain, HQ location, industry, employee count. Schemas Group tables and views; syncs typically target a dedicated schema per source system. Company is specific to BetterContact and Schemas to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lead Finder Search Prospect discovery by people and company filters, returning enriched lead profiles. Delta Tables The primary read and write target; operational data lands here as managed or external tables. Lead Finder Search is specific to BetterContact and Delta Tables to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Enrichment Request Batch or single submissions of up to 100 contacts per request for waterfall enrichment. Views Curated read-only projections used as sync sources for downstream tools. Enrichment Request is specific to BetterContact and Views to Databricks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between BetterContact and Databricks

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.

BetterContact Databricks 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 Databricks as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Databricks BetterContact Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Databricks are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Delta Lake Change Data Feed for row-level changes.

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 Databricks records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • BetterContact: Batches capped at 100 contacts per enrichment request.
  • Databricks: Throughput depends on the SQL warehouse size; API calls are subject to workspace rate limits.
