Why teams connect Amazon Aurora and Braze

Mirror Braze's data into Amazon Aurora so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Braze through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in Amazon Aurora.

Stacksync mirrors Users, Custom Attributes, Custom Events, Purchases from Braze into Databases, Schemas, Tables, Views in Amazon Aurora and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Braze, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Push product usage events from a database or warehouse into Braze to trigger onboarding and retention journeys.
  • Keep subscription and consent states consistent between Braze subscription groups and the CRM or CDP of record.
  • Two-way sync between Aurora application tables and a CRM so product data and account data stay consistent.
  • Stream row-level changes from Aurora into a warehouse for near-real-time analytics without batch exports.

Read Braze with a query

Records from Braze are ordinary rows in Amazon Aurora; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Braze from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in Amazon Aurora and Stacksync propagates the change into Braze, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Braze arrive as row changes in Amazon Aurora, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between Amazon Aurora and Braze

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.

Amazon Aurora objects Braze objects
Materialized Views Precomputed result sets (PostgreSQL-compatible clusters) readable as sources. Canvases Multi-step journeys; entry and performance data is read for lifecycle analysis.
Columns and Data Types Standard MySQL or PostgreSQL types mapped during field mapping. Subscription Groups Channel-level opt-in states synced with consent records in other systems.
Primary and Foreign Keys Constraints used to identify records and preserve relational integrity in syncs. Content Blocks Reusable message content referenced across campaigns.
Read Replicas Reader endpoints that syncs can target to keep load off the writer. Users The central profile object, identified by external ID, Braze ID, or user aliases; the main sync target.
Databases Logical databases within a cluster that scope a sync connection. Custom Attributes Profile fields written from CRMs, warehouses, and product databases to drive personalization.
Schemas Namespaces (PostgreSQL) or database-level grouping (MySQL) used in table selection. Custom Events Behavioral events pushed into Braze to trigger campaigns and Canvases.

How the Amazon Aurora and Braze connectors work

Amazon Aurora

Integration surface
MySQL or PostgreSQL wire protocol (SQL); optional RDS Data API over HTTPS
Authentication
Database credentials or IAM database authentication
Change detection
Log-based CDC: binlog on MySQL-compatible clusters, logical replication/decoding on PostgreSQL-compatible clusters; polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits for wire-protocol access; throughput is bounded by instance class and connection limits

Braze

Integration surface
REST API
Authentication
REST API keys scoped to specific endpoints, issued per workspace
Change detection
Braze Currents streams engagement events outward; profile reads otherwise rely on export endpoints and polling
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Endpoints have per-endpoint rate limits documented by Braze; batch endpoints accept multiple users per request
