Why teams connect Greenplum and Salesforce

Sync Salesforce into Greenplum continuously and push warehouse results back onto CRM records, one two-way connection instead of two pipelines.

The CRM feeds the warehouse and the warehouse should feed the CRM: relationship data flows one way, and computed scores, segments, and customer context flow back. Most teams build the first half as a batch pipeline and never quite get to the second.

Stacksync does both with one connection. Products and Price Books, Custom Objects, Accounts, Contacts from Salesforce land in Greenplum as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in Greenplum write back to fields in Salesforce. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • Sync Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities bi-directionally with Postgres so engineering teams read and write CRM data with plain SQL.
  • Write product usage metrics computed in a warehouse onto Account and Contact fields so reps see adoption signals on the record.
  • 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.

CRM analytics on live data

Accounts, contacts, and activity from Salesforce are queryable in Greenplum moments after they change, so dashboards stop lagging the reality they describe.

Scores and segments back on the record

Lead scores, churn risk, or usage segments computed in Greenplum appear as fields in Salesforce, where the people working accounts actually see them.

A single customer view

Join Salesforce's relationship data with billing, product, and support data in Greenplum to build the customer picture the CRM alone cannot hold.

What you can sync between Greenplum and Salesforce

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.

Greenplum objects Salesforce objects
External tables Reference external files for bulk load paths alongside row-level syncs. Custom Objects Org-specific tables with the __c suffix; discoverable via describe metadata so field mappings can be generated.
Rows Read and written by key; distribution keys determine where rows live. Accounts Company records that anchor most syncs; typically mapped to customer tables in a database or ERP.
Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Contacts People linked to Accounts; synced two-way with marketing, support, and warehouse person records.
Schemas Namespace tables and control which objects a sync can see. Leads Unqualified prospects; often written into Salesforce from enrichment or product-signup pipelines.
Tables Heap or append-optimized tables mapped directly to sync targets. Opportunities Deal records with stage and amount; synced to databases for pipeline reporting and to ERPs at close.
Partitions Large tables are commonly partitioned by date, which shapes incremental reads. Cases Support records; synced with help desk tools or internal databases for escalation workflows.
