Why teams connect Exasol and Front

Get the data locked inside Front into Exasol as live tables, and send results back where Front can use them, without writing a pipeline.

Whatever Front is used for, it accumulates data the rest of the company wants to analyze, and that data usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay for it.

Stacksync syncs Inboxes, Tags, Teammates, Channels from Front into tables in Exasol continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in Exasol can also be written back into fields in Front where the tool can use them.

Common use cases

  • Sync conversations, messages, and tags into Postgres for response-time and volume analytics across inboxes.
  • Write CRM account tier, owner, and renewal data into Front contact and account custom fields so it shows next to the conversation.
  • Sync computed metrics or customer segments from Exasol back into a CRM for sales and marketing use (reverse ETL).
  • Consolidate data from multiple operational databases into Exasol as the central analytics layer.

Where Front accepts updates: operational write-back

Segments, scores, or reference values computed in Exasol sync back onto records in Front, putting analysis where the work happens.

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Exasol preserves a queryable record even as data ages out of Front or gets changed inside it.

Analytics on Front's data

Records and events from Front land in Exasol as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

What you can sync between Exasol and Front

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.

Exasol objects Front objects
Users and roles Grant read/write access for the dedicated integration account. Comments Internal team notes on conversations; usually read-only in syncs.
Schemas Namespaces that group the tables a sync reads from or writes into. Contacts People across channels; matched to CRM contacts, with custom fields carrying external context.
Tables Primary sync target; columnar relational tables written with standard SQL. Accounts Company groupings of contacts; kept aligned with CRM accounts.
Views Read-only query surfaces often used as curated sources for reverse ETL. Inboxes Shared queues that conversations live in; used to segment reporting by team or channel.
Virtual schemas Federated views over external sources; useful for deciding what needs physical replication. Tags Labels applied to conversations; drive routing and category-level analytics.
UDF scripts In-database functions that can transform synced data after load. Teammates Agents; used for ownership mapping and workload reporting.
