Why teams connect Eloqua and Google AlloyDB

Give your team Eloqua's contacts, campaigns, and engagement in Google AlloyDB: query them with SQL, push audiences built from your own data back to Eloqua, and skip the marketing API.

Eloqua holds the people, audiences, and campaign activity that marketing runs on, but that data sits behind interfaces built for marketers, not for your internal systems. Engineers and analysts who need contacts, list membership, or engagement, for reporting, attribution, or product logic, end up writing integration code against a rate-limited API and maintaining it forever. Meanwhile the customer and usage data marketers want for targeting already lives in Google AlloyDB, hard to get into campaigns without manual exports.

Stacksync mirrors Emails, Forms and Form Submits, Contact Lists and Segments, Contacts from Eloqua into Tables, Views, Materialized Views, Indexes in Google AlloyDB field by field, in real time, and in both directions. Marketing records become rows your code can query and join with product and customer data; audiences and attributes computed in Google AlloyDB, from usage, orders, or account status, sync back into Eloqua to drive campaigns and ads, with Eloqua kept authoritative for engagement. You decide which side owns which fields, and Stacksync resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Use logical replication to feed AlloyDB changes into warehouses or event pipelines without batch jobs.
  • 02 Consolidate SaaS data into AlloyDB and serve analytics from its columnar engine without a separate OLAP store.
  • 03 Load purchase or product-usage records into Custom Data Objects linked to Contacts so nurture campaigns branch on behavior mastered in another system.
  • 04 Add or remove Contacts from shared Contact Lists and Segments based on lifecycle stage computed downstream in a database.

Common sync patterns

Build audiences from your own data

Segments computed in Google AlloyDB from product usage, orders, or account status sync into Eloqua as lists or audiences, so campaigns and ads target the people your data says they should.

Engagement and results next to the customer

Opens, clicks, sends, RSVPs, or ad activity from Eloqua land in Google AlloyDB beside the matching customer record, ready for reporting and revenue attribution.

React to marketing changes as row changes

A new lead, form fill, or list change in Eloqua arrives as a row change in Google AlloyDB, so scoring, jobs, and notifications run in the tooling your team already uses.

What you can sync between Eloqua and Google AlloyDB

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.

Eloqua objects Google AlloyDB objects How this pairing syncs
Contact Lists and Segments Shared lists (static) and segments (dynamic audiences); Contacts are added to or removed from shared lists based on lifecycle stage computed downstream. Replication Slots Logical replication artifacts that back log-based change capture. Contact Lists and Segments is specific to Eloqua and Replication Slots to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Contacts Core person records, keyed on email address as the unique identifier; imported/exported via the Bulk API and upserted on email, synced two-way with CRM, warehouse, and app databases. Databases Standard PostgreSQL databases within an AlloyDB cluster that syncs connect to. Contacts is specific to Eloqua and Databases to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Accounts Company records linked to Contacts via the account-linkage field; moved through the Bulk API and typically mastered in a CRM or ERP and written into Eloqua. Schemas Namespaces used to separate synced SaaS data from application tables. Accounts is specific to Eloqua and Schemas to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Custom Data Objects Auxiliary data tables (CDOs) linked to Contacts for records like event registrations or purchases; synced via the Bulk API so nurture campaigns can branch on them. Tables Primary read/write target for bi-directional sync with CRMs and other systems. Custom Data Objects is specific to Eloqua and Tables to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Activities Engagement events (email opens, clicks, form submits, bounces, page views, subscribes/unsubscribes) exported through the Bulk API activities export; read-only feed for scoring and attribution. Views Curated projections used as read-only sync sources. Activities is specific to Eloqua and Views to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Campaigns Multi-step campaign-canvas assets managed through the Application REST API; campaign membership and response data read out for attribution reporting. Materialized Views Precomputed aggregates refreshed and synced outward on a schedule. Campaigns is specific to Eloqua and Materialized Views to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Eloqua and Google AlloyDB

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.

Eloqua Google AlloyDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Eloqua for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via Bulk API exports filtered on a contact/account modified-date field using EML filter syntax.

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

Google AlloyDB Eloqua Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Google AlloyDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Eloqua: Per-instance soft limits by sync type (Export 2,000/hr, Import 2,000/hr, Sync Action 4,000/hr); 32 MB cap per POST to a staging area and 50,000 records per retrieve batch.
  • Google AlloyDB: No API-style rate limits; throughput is bounded by instance size.
