Why teams connect Anaplan and AWS Aurora PostgreSQL

Work with Anaplan's financial data straight from AWS Aurora PostgreSQL: read it with ordinary queries, write to it from your own code, and let Stacksync keep both sides consistent.

Engineers need finance data more often than finance systems make it easy to get: for internal tools, reporting services, or logic that reacts to invoices and payments. Working through the vendor API means rate limits, pagination, and glue code that has to be maintained forever.

Stacksync mirrors Lists, List Items, Versions, Import and Export Actions from Anaplan into Rows, Columns, Primary keys and constraints, Views and materialized views in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and keeps the two in sync bi-directionally and in real time. Your services read finance records with normal queries against AWS Aurora PostgreSQL, and rows your code writes or updates flow back into Anaplan with validation, so the finance system stays the system of record.

Common use cases

  • Sync CRM pipeline data into Anaplan for sales capacity and quota planning.
  • Push approved plan and target numbers from Anaplan back to the CRM or compensation systems.
  • Keep a customer-facing Aurora database aligned with an internal admin tool, with writes accepted on both sides.
  • Feed operational dashboards from a read replica while the writer handles sync traffic.

Internal tools without API plumbing

Build dashboards and back-office tools directly on AWS Aurora PostgreSQL; Stacksync handles the API calls, rate limits, and retries against Anaplan.

Write back safely

Updates written to the synced tables in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL propagate into Anaplan, so automations can create or correct finance records without custom integration code.

React to financial events

Changes in Anaplan appear in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL as row changes, so you can trigger downstream logic with the database tooling you already use.

What you can sync between Anaplan and AWS Aurora PostgreSQL

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.

Anaplan objects AWS Aurora PostgreSQL objects
Modules Multidimensional grids of line items where plan data lives; the main read/write surface. Rows Inserted, updated, and deleted in both directions during bi-directional syncs.
Line Items The measures within a module, mapped to columns or metrics in syncs. Columns Rich Postgres types including JSONB and arrays are mapped to the paired system's fields.
Lists Dimension members (accounts, products, cost centers) synced from master data systems. Primary keys and constraints Identify rows for upserts and enforce integrity on sync writes.
List Items Individual dimension members created or updated from external systems of record. Views and materialized views Usable as read-only sources for filtered or precomputed sync datasets.
Versions Scenario dimensions (actual, budget, forecast) that scope which slice a sync reads or writes. Foreign keys Relationship metadata that syncs can translate into object references elsewhere.
Import and Export Actions Predefined data-movement definitions the Bulk API executes. Replication slots and publications The logical replication objects that power log-based CDC.

How the Anaplan and AWS Aurora PostgreSQL connectors work

Anaplan

Integration surface
REST APIs: a Bulk API that runs predefined import/export actions and a transactional API for model metadata and cell data
Authentication
Token-based sessions obtained via basic authentication, CA certificates, or OAuth 2.0 through Anaplan's authentication service
Change detection
Polling and scheduled export actions; the platform does not expose change events
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's API rate limits; large data movements are designed to run through bulk actions

AWS Aurora PostgreSQL

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL-compatible), standard Postgres drivers and JDBC
Authentication
Database credentials, optionally AWS IAM database authentication, over TLS
Change detection
Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication (WAL decoding through replication slots), with timestamp polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
