Why teams connect Couchbase and Salesforce

Treat Salesforce like part of your database: its records live in Couchbase 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 Couchbase, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Custom Objects, Accounts, Contacts, Leads from Salesforce into Global Secondary Indexes, XDCR replications, Full-text search indexes, Buckets in Couchbase with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Salesforce 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

  • Consolidate multiple Salesforce orgs into a single database for cross-org reporting after an acquisition.
  • Sync Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities bi-directionally with Postgres so engineering teams read and write CRM data with plain SQL.
  • Sync Couchbase JSON documents into Postgres or a warehouse where analysts work with flattened relational tables.
  • Stream document mutations via DCP into downstream systems so caches, search indexes, or warehouses stay current.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Salesforce become tables in Couchbase you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Couchbase sync onto the matching records in Salesforce, 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 Salesforce API, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Couchbase and Salesforce

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.

Couchbase objects Salesforce objects
Scopes Namespaces inside a bucket used to group collections, similar to schemas. Leads Unqualified prospects; often written into Salesforce from enrichment or product-signup pipelines.
Collections Table-like groupings of documents that syncs typically map one-to-one to destination tables. Opportunities Deal records with stage and amount; synced to databases for pipeline reporting and to ERPs at close.
JSON Documents The core records; schemaless JSON keyed by document id, flattened or mapped to relational rows in syncs. Cases Support records; synced with help desk tools or internal databases for escalation workflows.
Global Secondary Indexes Indexes that make SQL++ query-based extraction efficient. Campaigns Marketing membership data; read out for attribution analysis in the warehouse.
XDCR replications Cluster-to-cluster replication streams, useful context when choosing a sync source cluster. Tasks and Events Activity records; usually read-only in syncs to feed activity reporting.
Full-text search indexes Search indexes over documents, relevant when syncing searchable content. Products and Price Books Catalog and pricing data; commonly mastered in an ERP and written into Salesforce.

How the Couchbase and Salesforce connectors work

Couchbase

Integration surface
SQL++ (N1QL) query service, key-value SDK APIs, and REST management APIs
Authentication
Database credentials with role-based access control, typically over TLS
Change detection
Database Change Protocol (DCP) streams document mutations; SQL++ polling on document fields as an alternative
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Throughput is bounded by cluster sizing rather than API rate limits

Salesforce

Integration surface
REST, SOAP, and Bulk APIs
Authentication
OAuth login via a Salesforce user (browser-based authorization flow); requires "API Enabled" permission for polling mode, plus "Author Apex" and "Customize Application" OR "Modify All Data" for trigger mode
Change detection
Apex triggers are used whenever possible (Salesforce actively notifies Stacksync via an Apex trigger + callout class + remote site setting)
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Daily API request allocations vary by edition and license count.
