Why teams connect Materialize and Seismic

Sync Seismic into Materialize 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. Digital Sales Rooms, Reporting Activities, Library Content, Content Versions from Seismic land in Materialize as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in Materialize write back to fields in Seismic. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 React to ContentManager and DSR webhook events to update a database when documents are published, versioned, or expired.
  • 02 Provision and deactivate Seismic Users and User Groups from an HRIS or IdP so content access mirrors joiner, mover, and leaver changes.
  • 03 Drive alerting and operational tooling from SUBSCRIBE change streams instead of scheduled queries.
  • 04 Maintain real-time inventory, usage, or account-health counters consumed by customer-facing applications.

Common sync patterns

Cleanup that sticks

Deduplication and normalization done in Materialize can be written back, so warehouse-side cleanup actually fixes the CRM.

CRM analytics on live data

Accounts, contacts, and activity from Seismic are queryable in Materialize 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 Materialize appear as fields in Seismic, where the people working accounts actually see them.

What you can sync between Materialize and Seismic

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.

Materialize objects Seismic objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas & Databases Namespaces that organize objects a sync targets. Reporting Activities Content-interaction, engagement, and usage analytics extracted read-only through the ETL-oriented Reporting API v2 for a warehouse. Schemas & Databases is specific to Materialize and Reporting Activities to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables User-managed tables that accept INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE from sync pipelines. Library Content Documents, decks, and assets stored in teamsites; created, moved, and retrieved via the Content Management API, each with a contentId. Tables is specific to Materialize and Library Content to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sources Ingestion points (Kafka, Postgres CDC, MySQL CDC, webhook) that feed external data into Materialize. Content Versions Version history for a library item; new versions upload via API and old ones expire, with events firing on ContentManager webhooks. Sources is specific to Materialize and Content Versions to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Incrementally maintained query results that syncs read as continuously up-to-date datasets. Users User records managed through SCIM 2.0 and legacy user endpoints; created, updated, and deactivated for provisioning sync. Materialized Views is specific to Materialize and Users to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sinks Outbound connections that emit view changes to Kafka topics. User Groups Group definitions and membership that govern content access; synced from an IdP or HRIS to keep permissions current. Sinks is specific to Materialize and User Groups to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Indexes In-memory arrangements that make view reads fast for serving workloads. Teamsites Tenant-scoped workspace partitions organizing Library content, permissions, and config; scoped by teamSiteId on most content calls. Indexes is specific to Materialize and Teamsites to Seismic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Materialize and Seismic

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.

Materialize Seismic Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Materialize are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. SUBSCRIBE queries stream row-level changes of any view or table to the client.

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

Seismic Materialize Sub-second propagation

DetectionSeismic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks for content, version, user, group, workflow, DSR, and LiveSend events.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Seismic: Tiered per-endpoint limits over a rolling 60-second window; exceeding returns HTTP 429, with X-Seismic-Remaining-Calls and X-Seismic-Total-Calls headers.
