Why teams connect Dun And Bradstreet and PostgreSQL

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

Dun And Bradstreet is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into PostgreSQL, so PostgreSQL always reflects the current state of Dun And Bradstreet — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

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 PostgreSQL, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync the D&B corporate family tree (parent and subsidiary DUNS) into the CRM so ABM and territory owners see full account hierarchies and roll pipeline up to the global ultimate.
  • 02 Build target-account lists with Criteria Search and land the resulting DUNS plus firmographics in a database for outbound and TAM analysis.
  • 03 Consolidate data from several microservice databases into one operational Postgres store
  • 04 Feed reporting and BI from a continuously synced Postgres replica instead of scheduled ETL scripts

Common sync patterns

Internal tools without API code

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

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Dun And Bradstreet arrive as row changes in PostgreSQL, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Dun And Bradstreet become tables in PostgreSQL you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between Dun And Bradstreet and PostgreSQL

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.

Dun And Bradstreet objects PostgreSQL objects How this pairing syncs
Principals & Contacts (Data Block) Company officers, executives, and contacts tied to a D-U-N-S Number; read-only enrichment used to populate CRM contact and account-owner fields. Schemas Namespaces that scope which tables a sync reads and writes. Principals & Contacts (Data Block) is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and Schemas to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Company Hierarchy & Connections (Family Tree) Parent, subsidiary, branch, and global-ultimate DUNS relationships; read-only, used to build account hierarchies and corporate-family rollups. Columns Field-level mapping targets; types are mapped to the connected system's field types. Company Hierarchy & Connections (Family Tree) is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and Columns to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Financial Strength & Risk Insight (Data Block) D&B risk and credit signals - D&B Rating, PAYDEX, Failure Score, Delinquency Score, Viability - keyed by D-U-N-S Number; read-only. Primary and Unique Keys Used as match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict resolution. Financial Strength & Risk Insight (Data Block) is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and Primary and Unique Keys to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Identity Resolution (Match / cleanseMatch) Sends a company name and address and returns ranked candidate DUNS with confidence codes and a MatchGrade; read-only scored match, not an exact lookup. JSONB Columns Hold semi-structured payloads such as nested SaaS objects or metadata. Identity Resolution (Match / cleanseMatch) is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and JSONB Columns to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Criteria Search Query companies by firmographic criteria (industry, geography, size) and get back a list of D-U-N-S Numbers to enrich; read-only list building. Sequences Generate surrogate keys for rows created by inbound syncs. Criteria Search is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and Sequences to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Monitoring Notifications Change notices for a registered portfolio of DUNS; read-only feed pulled from the notifications endpoint (retained ~60 days) or delivered as bundled push. Custom Types and Enums Constrain synced values to a fixed set, mirroring picklist fields. Monitoring Notifications is specific to Dun And Bradstreet and Custom Types and Enums to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Dun And Bradstreet and PostgreSQL

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.

Dun And Bradstreet PostgreSQL Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Dun And Bradstreet for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via D&B Monitoring - register a portfolio of DUNS and pull change notices from the notifications endpoint (retained ~60 days).

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

PostgreSQL Dun And Bradstreet Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in PostgreSQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Logical replication (wal_level = logical) for change data capture via the "Postgres" connector.

DeliveryDun And Bradstreet does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Dun And Bradstreet's output flows back as field updates on the originating PostgreSQL records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Dun And Bradstreet: Per-contract transactions-per-second cap plus weekly/monthly/yearly quotas; exceeding TPS returns HTTP 429 with error 0045/0046 (0047 on spike arrest). Quotas reset on UTC boundaries.
  • PostgreSQL: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits, instance resources, and replication slot throughput.
