Why teams connect Front and Greenplum

Get the data locked inside Front into Greenplum 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 Greenplum continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in Greenplum 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.
  • Keep Greenplum and a cloud warehouse in sync during a migration so both platforms serve consistent data.
  • Feed BI reporting by syncing curated Greenplum views to downstream tools on a schedule.

Where Front accepts updates: operational write-back

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

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Greenplum 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 Greenplum as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

What you can sync between Front and Greenplum

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.

Front objects Greenplum objects
Channels Connected addresses (email, SMS, chat); define where messages originate and send from. External tables Reference external files for bulk load paths alongside row-level syncs.
Conversations The central threaded unit that messages, comments, and tags attach to; synced for support analytics. Rows Read and written by key; distribution keys determine where rows live.
Messages Inbound and outbound emails, chats, and SMS within a conversation; read out for response-time reporting. Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection.
Comments Internal team notes on conversations; usually read-only in syncs. Schemas Namespace tables and control which objects a sync can see.
Contacts People across channels; matched to CRM contacts, with custom fields carrying external context. Tables Heap or append-optimized tables mapped directly to sync targets.
Accounts Company groupings of contacts; kept aligned with CRM accounts. Partitions Large tables are commonly partitioned by date, which shapes incremental reads.
