Why teams connect Amazon Lightsail and Front

Mirror Front's data into Amazon Lightsail 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 Front 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 Lightsail.

Stacksync mirrors Conversations, Messages, Comments, Contacts from Front into Databases, Schemas, Tables, Views in Amazon Lightsail 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 Front, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Keep Front contacts and accounts aligned with CRM contacts and accounts in both directions.
  • Mirror conversations tagged for escalation into engineering trackers through the synced database.
  • 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.

Read Front with a query

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

Automate Front from your codebase

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

React to changes as they happen

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

What you can sync between Amazon Lightsail and Front

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 Lightsail objects Front objects
Managed Databases Lightsail-hosted MySQL or PostgreSQL instances that a sync connects to as standard databases. Contacts People across channels; matched to CRM contacts, with custom fields carrying external context.
Databases Logical databases on the instance that scope a connection. Accounts Company groupings of contacts; kept aligned with CRM accounts.
Schemas Namespaces used when selecting tables to sync. Inboxes Shared queues that conversations live in; used to segment reporting by team or channel.
Tables Relational tables read from and written to at row level. Tags Labels applied to conversations; drive routing and category-level analytics.
Views Query-backed read-only sources. Teammates Agents; used for ownership mapping and workload reporting.
Users and Grants Database accounts used to give the sync connection scoped access. Channels Connected addresses (email, SMS, chat); define where messages originate and send from.

How the Amazon Lightsail and Front connectors work

Amazon Lightsail

Integration surface
MySQL or PostgreSQL wire protocol (SQL) to the managed database endpoint
Authentication
Database credentials; public endpoint access must be enabled or a tunnel used
Change detection
Polling on timestamp or key columns; log-based CDC depends on engine parameter access, which is more limited than on full RDS
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API-style rate limits; capacity is fixed by the chosen Lightsail bundle

Front

Integration surface
REST API (Core API)
Authentication
OAuth authorization via the Stacksync UI ("Connections" > "create new connection" > "Front" > "Authorize") — no coding required
Change detection
Application webhooks and rule-triggered webhooks, with the events endpoint available for polling
