Why teams connect ClickHouse and Nimble

Sync Nimble into ClickHouse continuously and push warehouse results back onto CRM records, one two-way connection instead of two pipelines.

The CRM feeds the warehouse and the warehouse should feed the CRM: relationship data flows one way, and computed scores, segments, and customer context flow back. Most teams build the first half as a batch pipeline and never quite get to the second.

Stacksync does both with one connection. Tasks, Activities, Notes, Tags from Nimble land in ClickHouse as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in ClickHouse write back to fields in Nimble. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • Push product usage or billing flags from internal databases into Nimble custom fields so reps have context before outreach.
  • Keep deals aligned between Nimble and an accounting system so invoicing starts when a deal closes.
  • Land product event data alongside synced CRM accounts so analysts join usage and revenue in one place.
  • Sync aggregated ClickHouse query results back into operational tools, such as account-level usage metrics into a CRM.

Cleanup that sticks

Deduplication and normalization done in ClickHouse can be written back, so warehouse-side cleanup actually fixes the CRM.

CRM analytics on live data

Accounts, contacts, and activity from Nimble are queryable in ClickHouse moments after they change, so dashboards stop lagging the reality they describe.

Scores and segments back on the record

Lead scores, churn risk, or usage segments computed in ClickHouse appear as fields in Nimble, where the people working accounts actually see them.

What you can sync between ClickHouse 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.

ClickHouse objects Nimble objects
Databases Namespaces that group tables and scope permissions for sync users. Companies Stored as contact records with a company record type, so they sync through the same contacts resource
Views Saved queries used as curated, read-only sync sources. Deals Pipeline records linked to contacts, synced to keep revenue systems aligned with sales activity
Materialized views Insert-time transformations that reshape incoming synced rows into aggregates. Tasks To-do items tied to contacts, mirrored into work-management tools or reporting tables
Distributed tables Query-routing tables over cluster shards in self-managed deployments. Activities Calls, events, and interaction history used for engagement reporting outside Nimble
Dictionaries In-memory lookup structures refreshed from external sources, sometimes fed by syncs. Notes Free-text records attached to contacts, replicated for a complete account timeline
Tables (MergeTree family) Columnar, append-optimized tables that serve as the destination for high-volume sync loads. Tags Segmentation labels that map to list membership or filters in downstream systems
