Why teams connect CockroachDB and Gainsight

Mirror Gainsight's data into CockroachDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Gainsight through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in CockroachDB.

Stacksync mirrors Person (People), Relationship, CTA (Call to Action), Scorecard Fact from Gainsight into Views, Indexes, Sequences, Changefeeds in CockroachDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Gainsight, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep Relationship records aligned with a billing system or ERP so multi-product customers map to the correct contracts and invoices.
  • 02 Read Timeline Activities and Success Plan objectives into a reporting database for churn, QBR, and CSM-productivity dashboards.
  • 03 Write application events from CockroachDB back to CRM fields to give go-to-market teams product context.
  • 04 Use changefeeds to propagate row changes from a multi-region cluster into a warehouse or search index.

Common sync patterns

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Gainsight arrive as row changes in CockroachDB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Gainsight with a query

Records from Gainsight are ordinary rows in CockroachDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

What you can sync between CockroachDB and Gainsight

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.

CockroachDB objects Gainsight objects How this pairing syncs
Changefeeds Built-in CDC streams that emit row-level changes to external sinks. Relationship Sub-units within a company for multi-product or multi-team accounts; synced so each maps to the right contract in billing or an ERP. Changefeeds is specific to CockroachDB and Relationship to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical containers a sync connects to, addressed like PostgreSQL databases. CTA (Call to Action) Risk and expansion alerts that drive CSM plays; often synced to ticketing or project tools so follow-up work is tracked where teams operate. Databases is specific to CockroachDB and CTA (Call to Action) to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables from application tables. Scorecard Fact Health scores and measures per Company or Relationship; usage metrics from a warehouse are written in so scores reflect live telemetry. Schemas is specific to CockroachDB and Scorecard Fact to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The core read/write target; rows sync bi-directionally with SaaS objects or other databases. Timeline Activity Logged calls, emails, and notes; usually read out into a reporting database for QBR and churn analysis. Tables is specific to CockroachDB and Timeline Activity to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used as curated sync sources. Success Plan Account objectives with associated tasks; read out for reporting or synced with project tools tracking onboarding and adoption. Views is specific to CockroachDB and Success Plan to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes Secondary indexes that keep sync lookup queries fast on key columns. Task and Playbook Cockpit tasks generated from CTAs and playbooks; synced with Jira or Asana so execution happens in the team's own tool. Indexes is specific to CockroachDB and Task and Playbook to Gainsight — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between CockroachDB and Gainsight

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.

CockroachDB Gainsight Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in CockroachDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. CDC via changefeeds, which stream row-level changes.

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

Gainsight CockroachDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gainsight for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on the ModifiedDate (GS Modified Date) system field, which is filterable and sortable on every object.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • CockroachDB: No API rate limits in the SaaS sense; throughput is bounded by cluster capacity.
  • Gainsight: Synchronous APIs are capped near 100 calls/min and 50,000/day; the asynchronous Bulk API allows 10 calls/hour and 100/day. Both are fixed-window limits, and the applicable per-hour and per-day limits are returned in the x-ratelimit-limit response header.
