Why teams connect Amazon Lightsail and Close

Treat Close like part of your database: its records live in Amazon Lightsail as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in Amazon Lightsail, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Custom Fields, Users, Smart Views, Leads from Close into Databases, Schemas, Tables, Views in Amazon Lightsail with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Close with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Sync Close leads and opportunities into Postgres or a warehouse for pipeline reporting outside Close's built-in reports.
  • Two-way sync between Close and a billing or ERP system so closed-won opportunities create customers and invoices automatically.
  • Sync a Lightsail-hosted application database with a CRM so customer records match what the app stores.
  • Push cleaned or enriched records from central systems back into the Lightsail database behind a small web app.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Amazon Lightsail sync onto the matching records in Close, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Close API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Close arrive as row changes in Amazon Lightsail, ready to drive jobs and notifications.
