Why teams connect Gainsight and YugabyteDB

Mirror Gainsight's data into YugabyteDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Gainsight through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in YugabyteDB.

Stacksync mirrors Company, Person (People), Relationship, CTA (Call to Action) from Gainsight into Indexes, Materialized Views, Schemas, Sequences in YugabyteDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Gainsight, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read Timeline Activities and Success Plan objectives into a reporting database for churn, QBR, and CSM-productivity dashboards.
  • 02 Keep Relationship records aligned with a billing system or ERP so multi-product customers map to the correct contracts and invoices.
  • 03 Run log-based CDC from YugabyteDB tables into a warehouse for analytics without batch dumps.
  • 04 Two-way sync between YugabyteDB application tables and a CRM so product data and account records stay consistent.

Common sync patterns

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Gainsight arrive as row changes in YugabyteDB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Gainsight with a query

Records from Gainsight are ordinary rows in YugabyteDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

What you can sync between Gainsight and YugabyteDB

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.

Gainsight objects YugabyteDB objects How this pairing syncs
Company Customer/account master in Gainsight CS; two-way synced with CRM and warehouse customer tables to keep ARR, owner, and renewal fields aligned. Sequences ID generation objects relevant when syncing writes into YSQL tables. Company is specific to Gainsight and Sequences to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Person (People) Contacts associated to companies through the Company Person junction; synced two-way with CRM contacts and warehouse person records. CDC Streams Change streams over the storage-layer WAL consumed through logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors. Person (People) is specific to Gainsight and CDC Streams to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Relationship Sub-units within a company for multi-product or multi-team accounts; synced so each maps to the right contract in billing or an ERP. Databases and Keyspaces Top-level containers for the YSQL (Postgres-style) and YCQL (Cassandra-style) APIs respectively. Relationship is specific to Gainsight and Databases and Keyspaces to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
CTA (Call to Action) Risk and expansion alerts that drive CSM plays; often synced to ticketing or project tools so follow-up work is tracked where teams operate. Tables Distributed SQL tables split into tablets; the primary read and write targets. CTA (Call to Action) is specific to Gainsight and Tables to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Scorecard Fact Health scores and measures per Company or Relationship; usage metrics from a warehouse are written in so scores reflect live telemetry. Indexes Global secondary indexes maintained transactionally alongside table writes. Scorecard Fact is specific to Gainsight and Indexes to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Timeline Activity Logged calls, emails, and notes; usually read out into a reporting database for QBR and churn analysis. Materialized Views Precomputed query results available in YSQL for read-side shaping. Timeline Activity is specific to Gainsight and Materialized Views to YugabyteDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Gainsight and YugabyteDB

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.

Gainsight YugabyteDB Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Gainsight for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on the ModifiedDate (GS Modified Date) system field, which is filterable and sortable on every object.

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

YugabyteDB Gainsight Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in YugabyteDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Native CDC from the write-ahead log via PostgreSQL logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Gainsight: Synchronous APIs are capped near 100 calls/min and 50,000/day; the asynchronous Bulk API allows 10 calls/hour and 100/day. Both are fixed-window limits, and the applicable per-hour and per-day limits are returned in the x-ratelimit-limit response header.
  • YugabyteDB: No API rate limits; throughput scales with cluster nodes and tablet distribution.
