Why teams connect Eloqua and Starburst Enterprise

Put modeled data to work and measure what it drives: Starburst Enterprise and Eloqua keep contacts, audiences, and campaign results in step in real time, in both directions.

Starburst Enterprise is where your team models customers, product usage, and revenue into trusted tables; Eloqua runs the campaigns, audiences, and messages that reach those people. The two overlap wherever the same person, account, or segment matters to both, and when the bridge between them is a nightly export or a hand-built list, marketing targets stale data while analytics never sees what the campaign returned.

Stacksync syncs Schemas, Tables, Views, Materialized views in Starburst Enterprise with Forms and Form Submits, Contact Lists and Segments, Contacts, Accounts in Eloqua field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — a computed score or segment can flow out to Eloqua while sends, opens, and conversions flow back to Starburst Enterprise — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read federated views that join warehouse, lake, and database tables, then sync the result into operational tools like a CRM
  • 02 Expose Iceberg or Hive lake tables to sync jobs through one SQL endpoint without moving the data first
  • 03 Two-way sync Contacts between Eloqua and a Postgres or warehouse table, matched on email, so ops teams query and update marketing profiles in SQL while marketers keep working in Eloqua.
  • 04 Export email opens, clicks, form submits, and bounces from the Bulk API Activities export into a warehouse for lead scoring and multi-touch attribution.

Common sync patterns

Enrich records with warehouse context

Product-usage counts, plan tier, region, or account owner computed in Starburst Enterprise appear on the matching record in Eloqua, so targeting, routing, and personalization use up-to-date context.

Activate a modeled audience

A segment or score built in Starburst Enterprise — high-intent accounts, churn risk, a lifetime-value tier — lands as an audience or contact field in Eloqua, so campaigns target the people your data actually points to instead of a static export.

Keep the contact and audience list current

New and updated contacts, leads, or audience members flow between Starburst Enterprise and Eloqua, so the marketing audience reflects the people in your warehouse and corrections propagate instead of the two sides drifting apart.

What you can sync between Eloqua and Starburst Enterprise

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 Starburst Enterprise objects How this pairing syncs
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 Engine-level SQL views used to shape federated data before syncing it out. Activities is specific to Eloqua and Views to Starburst Enterprise — 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 results that make repeated sync reads cheaper. Campaigns is specific to Eloqua and Materialized views to Starburst Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Emails Email creative and email-group assets managed via the Application REST API; usually read for reporting rather than written by a sync. Columns Typed per the Trino type system, mapped from each source's native types. Emails is specific to Eloqua and Columns to Starburst Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Forms and Form Submits Form definitions and their submission data, accessed through the Application REST API; submissions read out into a warehouse for lead capture and analysis. Catalogs Each catalog maps to a connector (Iceberg, Hive, PostgreSQL, and others) exposing an external source. Forms and Form Submits is specific to Eloqua and Catalogs to Starburst Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
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. Schemas Namespaces within a catalog, mirroring the underlying source's databases or schemas. Contact Lists and Segments is specific to Eloqua and Schemas to Starburst Enterprise — 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. Tables Queryable relations; writes pass through to sources whose connectors support them. Contacts is specific to Eloqua and Tables to Starburst Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Eloqua and Starburst Enterprise

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 Starburst Enterprise 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 Starburst Enterprise as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Starburst Enterprise Eloqua Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Starburst Enterprise for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Query-based polling.

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.
  • Starburst Enterprise: Throughput is governed by cluster sizing and resource groups rather than API quotas.
