Why teams connect Amazon Lightsail and Salesforce

Treat Salesforce 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 Leads, Opportunities, Cases, Campaigns from Salesforce into Tables, Views, Users and Grants, Managed Databases in Amazon Lightsail with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Salesforce 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

  • Trigger provisioning or billing changes in an operational database when an Opportunity moves to closed-won.
  • Consolidate multiple Salesforce orgs into a single database for cross-org reporting after an acquisition.
  • 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.

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Salesforce become tables in Amazon Lightsail you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Amazon Lightsail sync onto the matching records in Salesforce, 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 Salesforce API, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Amazon Lightsail and Salesforce

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 Salesforce objects
Schemas Namespaces used when selecting tables to sync. Products and Price Books Catalog and pricing data; commonly mastered in an ERP and written into Salesforce.
Tables Relational tables read from and written to at row level. Custom Objects Org-specific tables with the __c suffix; discoverable via describe metadata so field mappings can be generated.
Views Query-backed read-only sources. Accounts Company records that anchor most syncs; typically mapped to customer tables in a database or ERP.
Users and Grants Database accounts used to give the sync connection scoped access. Contacts People linked to Accounts; synced two-way with marketing, support, and warehouse person records.
Managed Databases Lightsail-hosted MySQL or PostgreSQL instances that a sync connects to as standard databases. Leads Unqualified prospects; often written into Salesforce from enrichment or product-signup pipelines.
Databases Logical databases on the instance that scope a connection. Opportunities Deal records with stage and amount; synced to databases for pipeline reporting and to ERPs at close.

How the Amazon Lightsail and Salesforce 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

Salesforce

Integration surface
REST, SOAP, and Bulk APIs
Authentication
OAuth login via a Salesforce user (browser-based authorization flow); requires "API Enabled" permission for polling mode, plus "Author Apex" and "Customize Application" OR "Modify All Data" for trigger mode
Change detection
Apex triggers are used whenever possible (Salesforce actively notifies Stacksync via an Apex trigger + callout class + remote site setting)
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Daily API request allocations vary by edition and license count.
