Why teams connect Amazon Lightsail and MariaDB

Keep Amazon Lightsail and MariaDB 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 MariaDB 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.
  • Replicate ERP or billing master data into MariaDB databases that power customer-facing applications
  • Feed a warehouse continuously from MariaDB using binlog-based capture instead of scheduled dumps

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 MariaDB, 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 MariaDB

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 MariaDB objects
Users and Grants Database accounts used to give the sync connection scoped access. JSON Columns Semi-structured payloads validated with JSON functions.
Managed Databases Lightsail-hosted MySQL or PostgreSQL instances that a sync connects to as standard databases. Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows.
Databases Logical databases on the instance that scope a connection. Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes.
Schemas Namespaces used when selecting tables to sync. Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems.
Tables Relational tables read from and written to at row level. Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources.
Views Query-backed read-only sources. Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values.

How the Amazon Lightsail and MariaDB 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

MariaDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (MySQL-compatible client/server protocol)
Authentication
Database credentials (connection string or parameters), with optional SSL root certificate upload and optional SSH tunnel (SSH user + host)
Change detection
Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources
