Why teams connect Starburst Enterprise and Xactly

Sync Xactly into Starburst Enterprise 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 & Customers, Orders, Credits, Transactions (Commission & Bonus) from Xactly land in Starburst Enterprise as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in Starburst Enterprise write back to fields in Xactly. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror commission Transactions and Credits into a data warehouse to power rep-facing dashboards and comp-plan analytics without manual exports.
  • 02 Sync Participants, Positions, Titles, and Quotas from an HRIS/HCM and planning tools into Xactly so the org hierarchy and targets stay aligned with headcount changes.
  • 03 Write curated or reconciled results back to lakehouse tables through connectors that support inserts
  • 04 Read federated views that join warehouse, lake, and database tables, then sync the result into operational tools like a CRM

Common sync patterns

Scores and segments back on the record

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

A single customer view

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

Cleanup that sticks

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

What you can sync between Starburst Enterprise and Xactly

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.

Starburst Enterprise objects Xactly objects How this pairing syncs
Materialized views Precomputed results that make repeated sync reads cheaper. Quotas / Targets Period quota and target values per position or plan; loaded from planning tools through Connect (write) and read for attainment reporting, so read and write. Materialized views is specific to Starburst Enterprise and Quotas / Targets to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Columns Typed per the Trino type system, mapped from each source's native types. Payment Summary (Payable) Approved payable amounts per participant per period; read as the output that feeds payroll and accounts payable, so effectively read-only. Columns is specific to Starburst Enterprise and Payment Summary (Payable) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Catalogs Each catalog maps to a connector (Iceberg, Hive, PostgreSQL, and others) exposing an external source. Products & Customers Product and customer/account master used in crediting rules and reporting; loaded and updated from CRM/ERP through Connect (write) and read for lookups, so read and write. Catalogs is specific to Starburst Enterprise and Products & Customers to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces within a catalog, mirroring the underlying source's databases or schemas. Orders Sales order and transaction records loaded into Incent as the raw input for crediting and calculation; created and updated through Connect load and ETL steps (write) and read back for reconciliation, so read and write. Schemas is specific to Starburst Enterprise and Orders to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Queryable relations; writes pass through to sources whose connectors support them. Credits Crediting records that tie an order to a participant and position; system-calculated credits are read, while manual and adjustment credits are loaded through Connect, so read and write. Tables is specific to Starburst Enterprise and Credits to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Engine-level SQL views used to shape federated data before syncing it out. Transactions (Commission & Bonus) Calculated commission and bonus line items produced by Incent's calculation engine; read as the output of comp runs for reporting and downstream payout, so effectively read-only results. Views is specific to Starburst Enterprise and Transactions (Commission & Bonus) to Xactly — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Starburst Enterprise and Xactly

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.

Starburst Enterprise Xactly Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Starburst Enterprise for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Query-based polling.

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

Xactly Starburst Enterprise Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Xactly for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No CDC log for external tools to consume.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Starburst Enterprise: Throughput is governed by cluster sizing and resource groups rather than API quotas.
  • Xactly: Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.

How the Starburst Enterprise and Xactly connectors work

Starburst Enterprise

Integration surface
ANSI SQL over JDBC/ODBC drivers and the Trino client REST protocol
Authentication
Deployment-dependent: username/password, LDAP, OAuth 2.0, or Kerberos
Change detection
Query-based polling; Starburst is a query engine and exposes no change log of its own
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Throughput is governed by cluster sizing and resource groups rather than API quotas

Xactly

Integration surface
Xactly Connect REST API v2 (JSON), plus ODBC/JDBC drivers over the same ANSI-SQL data model. Incent data is exposed as SQL-queryable objects (for example xactly_order, xactly_credit, xactly_transaction, xactly_payment); data is loaded and extracted through Connect load/query steps and server-side ETL Pipelines. The base host is region/pod-specific (for example https://<pod>.xactlycorp.com).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Xactly Connect API Gateway (bearer tokens issued on behalf of an Xactly Incent user), with HTTP Basic authentication using a dedicated Xactly Connect service-user's credentials also supported for the Connect REST API v2. The connecting user needs Connect/API access plus the relevant object permissions in Incent.
Change detection
No CDC log for external tools to consume. Incremental sync uses SQL predicates on modified/last-updated timestamp columns (for example WHERE modified_date > watermark) against Connect's queryable objects, or scheduled Connect ETL Pipelines that pull deltas since the last run. Xactly Connect has no outbound HTTP webhooks, so change detection is pull/ETL-based.
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Xactly does not publish numeric per-second rate limits. The Connect platform enforces query concurrency and long-running-query limits, so large extracts are paged and heavy loads/queries run as asynchronous Connect jobs (submit, then retrieve results) rather than row-by-row calls; batch loads are the supported path for high volume.
