Why teams connect Google Cloud Spanner and Infobip

Turn the messages, calls, and events Infobip handles into live rows in Google Cloud Spanner, and write back to trigger new outbound communication, with both sides in sync in seconds.

Engineers reach communications tools like Infobip through APIs, which means auth tokens, webhooks, delivery callbacks, and rate limits, all maintained forever and all shaped differently for every tool. The data those tools produce, who was contacted, what was sent, and what came back, would be simple to use if it lived in Google Cloud Spanner next to everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Persons (People CDP), SMS Messages, WhatsApp Messages, Email from Infobip into Tables, Rows, Interleaved tables, Secondary indexes in Google Cloud Spanner and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Communication activity lands in the database as ordinary rows you can query and join, and rows your code writes, such as a queued outbound message or an updated contact, flow back into Infobip so the tool and the database never disagree.

There is no webhook endpoint to host, no rate limit to babysit, and no nightly export that leaves your services reading yesterday's activity.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror email bounces, complaints, and opt-outs back onto CRM contact records so other tools stop messaging suppressed people.
  • 02 Two-way sync Persons — profiles, attributes, tags, and channel opt-in state — between the Infobip People CDP and a CRM or Postgres database so audience data stays consistent in both systems.
  • 03 Push billing or entitlement changes from finance tools into Spanner tables the application reads at runtime.
  • 04 Use change streams to feed near-real-time copies of operational tables into an analytics warehouse.

Common sync patterns

Communication history as database rows

Every message, call, or event Infobip records becomes rows in Google Cloud Spanner, ready to query, join with your own data, and report on without touching the vendor API.

Trigger outbound communication from the database

Write a row to a synced table in Google Cloud Spanner and Stacksync propagates it into Infobip, so your code sends the message, places the call, or schedules the meeting without integration glue.

One contact list across both

Recipients and contacts stay consistent between Infobip and Google Cloud Spanner, so a phone number or email corrected on either side is current the next time either system uses it.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Spanner and Infobip

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.

Google Cloud Spanner objects Infobip objects How this pairing syncs
Interleaved tables Child rows physically co-located with parents; synced as related records. Numbers / Senders Provisioned phone numbers and sender IDs used as message origins, listed and managed via the Numbers API; read to map which sender each message flows through. Interleaved tables is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Numbers / Senders to Infobip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Secondary indexes Used to make incremental read queries efficient on non-key columns. Delivery Reports & Logs Per-message delivery status, seen/read receipts, and error codes; pulled from GET /sms/1/reports and /sms/1/logs within a short retention window, or pushed in real time to a configured notifyUrl webhook. Secondary indexes is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Delivery Reports & Logs to Infobip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Change streams Capture inserts, updates, and deletes for log-style change data capture. Persons (People CDP) Contact profiles in the People module holding attributes, tags, and multi-channel contact data (mobile, email); full CRUD via GET/POST/PUT/DELETE /people/2/persons, so Infobip is both a source and a destination for contact records. Change streams is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Persons (People CDP) to Infobip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections useful for shaping data before it leaves Spanner. SMS Messages Outbound SMS sent via POST /sms/3/messages (legacy /sms/2/text/advanced); sent-message logs and delivery/seen reports read via GET /sms/1/logs and /sms/1/reports, with delivery reports and inbound (MO) messages pushed to a notifyUrl webhook. Views is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and SMS Messages to Infobip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Top-level containers that scope schema and sync configuration. WhatsApp Messages Template, text, and media WhatsApp messages sent via POST /whatsapp/1/message/*; message status and inbound replies delivered by webhook, and approved message templates are managed under the WhatsApp sender. Databases is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and WhatsApp Messages to Infobip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational tables mapped one-to-one to sync targets. Email Transactional and bulk email sent via POST /email/3/send (multipart form); delivery, open, click, bounce, and unsubscribe events arrive by webhook, and sending domains are managed through the /email/1/domains endpoints. Tables is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Email to Infobip — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Cloud Spanner and Infobip

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.

Google Cloud Spanner Infobip Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Google Cloud Spanner are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Change streams (log-style CDC), or timestamp-based polling queries.

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

Infobip Google Cloud Spanner Sub-second propagation

DetectionInfobip notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Delivery reports, seen/read receipts, and inbound (mobile-originated) messages are pushed in real time to a configured notifyUrl webhook per channel.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Cloud Spanner: Throughput is bounded by the instance's provisioned compute capacity rather than a fixed API quota.
  • Infobip: Message-sending throughput is provisioned per account and per number/sender rather than one fixed global cap; non-messaging endpoints are throttled and return HTTP 429 Too Many Requests when usage exceeds expected levels.
