Why teams connect Amazon Lightsail and Google AlloyDB

Keep Amazon Lightsail and Google AlloyDB synchronized in real time, across engines, regions, or services, in one or both directions.

Two databases that must agree is one of the oldest problems in engineering: different engines for different workloads, separate services with overlapping reference data, a migration in flight, or regional instances that share a subset of records. Hand-rolled replication across systems means change capture, conflict handling, and type mapping, all built and maintained by your team.

Stacksync syncs tables or collections between Amazon Lightsail and Google AlloyDB continuously and bi-directionally, translating types between the two engines and resolving conflicts by rules you configure. Rows written on either side appear on the other within seconds.

Common use cases

  • Push cleaned or enriched records from central systems back into the Lightsail database behind a small web app.
  • Migrate data continuously from a Lightsail database to a larger managed database as an application outgrows the VPS tier.
  • Use logical replication to feed AlloyDB changes into warehouses or event pipelines without batch jobs.
  • Consolidate SaaS data into AlloyDB and serve analytics from its columnar engine without a separate OLAP store.

Regional or environment copies

Mirror selected tables to another region or environment continuously, filtered to just the rows that should travel.

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both Amazon Lightsail and Google AlloyDB, so each workload runs on the engine that suits it.

Migration with zero-downtime cutover

When one database is replacing the other, sync both directions during the transition and switch traffic when ready, without a freeze window.

What you can sync between Amazon Lightsail and Google AlloyDB

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 Google AlloyDB objects
Users and Grants Database accounts used to give the sync connection scoped access. Replication Slots Logical replication artifacts that back log-based change capture.
Managed Databases Lightsail-hosted MySQL or PostgreSQL instances that a sync connects to as standard databases. Databases Standard PostgreSQL databases within an AlloyDB cluster that syncs connect to.
Databases Logical databases on the instance that scope a connection. Schemas Namespaces used to separate synced SaaS data from application tables.

How the Amazon Lightsail and Google AlloyDB 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

Google AlloyDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL-compatible), with connectivity through the AlloyDB Auth Proxy or private IP
Authentication
Database credentials or IAM database authentication
Change detection
Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication; polling on timestamp columns as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API-style rate limits; throughput is bounded by instance size
