Why teams connect Amazon RDS and Nimble

Treat Nimble like part of your database: its records live in Amazon RDS 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 RDS, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Notes, Tags, Custom fields, Contacts from Nimble into Columns, Primary and Unique Keys, Read Replicas, Stored Procedures in Amazon RDS with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Nimble 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 Nimble contacts and companies into Postgres so ops teams can query socially enriched profile data with SQL.
  • Push product usage or billing flags from internal databases into Nimble custom fields so reps have context before outreach.
  • Bi-directional sync between an RDS database and a CRM so application data and sales data stay consistent without custom integration code
  • Mirror SaaS objects into RDS tables so product features can join business data with application data in one query

Internal tools without API code

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

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

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

Query the CRM like a database

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

What you can sync between Amazon RDS and Nimble

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 RDS objects Nimble objects
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables. Contacts Person records with multi-value fields for email, phone, and social profiles; the primary sync entity
Tables The core sync target; rows map to records in connected SaaS systems. Companies Stored as contact records with a company record type, so they sync through the same contacts resource
Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Deals Pipeline records linked to contacts, synced to keep revenue systems aligned with sales activity
Columns Field-level mapping targets, typed per the underlying engine. Tasks To-do items tied to contacts, mirrored into work-management tools or reporting tables
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. Activities Calls, events, and interaction history used for engagement reporting outside Nimble
Read Replicas Low-impact read endpoints often used as the source side of a sync. Notes Free-text records attached to contacts, replicated for a complete account timeline
