Why teams connect Affinity and Cloudera Data Platform

Sync Affinity into Cloudera Data Platform 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. List Entries, Persons, Organizations, Opportunities from Affinity land in Cloudera Data Platform as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in Cloudera Data Platform write back to fields in Affinity. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • Keep introductions and relationship data from Affinity aligned with outreach tools used by the team.
  • Sync notes and reminders into project or task systems used outside the deal team.
  • Publish CRM or ERP records into CDP so enterprise analytics runs alongside existing data lake workloads.
  • Consolidate tables from on-prem and cloud CDP environments into a single cloud warehouse target.

Cleanup that sticks

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

CRM analytics on live data

Accounts, contacts, and activity from Affinity are queryable in Cloudera Data Platform 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 Cloudera Data Platform appear as fields in Affinity, where the people working accounts actually see them.

What you can sync between Affinity and Cloudera Data Platform

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.

Reminders Follow-up tasks associated with people and organizations. Kudu tables Storage engine tables that support row-level inserts, updates, and deletes.

List Entries The membership of a person, organization, or opportunity on a list, carrying its list-specific fields. Views SQL views that can present curated, sync-ready projections of raw lake data.
Persons Contact records enriched with relationship intelligence, synced with CRMs and outreach tools. Partitions Table partitions (often by date) that incremental extraction jobs use to scope reads.
Organizations Company records matched to accounts in other systems by domain. Object store / HDFS files Underlying Parquet or ORC files on HDFS or cloud storage backing the tables.
