Why teams connect Amazon RDS and Nutshell

Treat Nutshell 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 Tasks, Notes, Products, Tags from Nutshell into Stored Procedures, Databases, Schemas, Tables in Amazon RDS with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Nutshell 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

  • Mirror tasks and activities into ops tools for cross-team visibility.
  • Sync Nutshell leads into a warehouse or Postgres so small B2B teams can report on pipeline without exports.
  • Keep an RDS reporting database hydrated from operational tools without maintaining ETL jobs
  • Sync master data (customers, products, pricing) from an ERP into the RDS databases that power customer-facing apps

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Nutshell 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 Nutshell become tables in Amazon RDS you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Amazon RDS sync onto the matching records in Nutshell, giving go-to-market teams live product context.
