Why teams connect Apache Druid and Nimble

Sync Nimble into Apache Druid continuously and push warehouse results back onto CRM records, one two-way connection instead of two pipelines.

The CRM feeds the warehouse and the warehouse should feed the CRM: relationship data flows one way, and computed scores, segments, and customer context flow back. Most teams build the first half as a batch pipeline and never quite get to the second.

Stacksync does both with one connection. Contacts, Companies, Deals, Tasks from Nimble land in Apache Druid as live tables, updated within seconds, and columns computed in Apache Druid write back to fields in Nimble. There is no separate ETL and reverse-ETL stack to stitch together and no jobs to babysit.

Common use cases

  • Push product usage or billing flags from internal databases into Nimble custom fields so reps have context before outreach.
  • Keep deals aligned between Nimble and an accounting system so invoicing starts when a deal closes.
  • Keep lookup tables in Druid refreshed from a CRM or database so query-time joins use current reference data.
  • Expose product telemetry stored in Druid to business tools without granting direct cluster access.

Cleanup that sticks

Deduplication and normalization done in Apache Druid can be written back, so warehouse-side cleanup actually fixes the CRM.

CRM analytics on live data

Accounts, contacts, and activity from Nimble are queryable in Apache Druid moments after they change, so dashboards stop lagging the reality they describe.

Scores and segments back on the record

Lead scores, churn risk, or usage segments computed in Apache Druid appear as fields in Nimble, where the people working accounts actually see them.

What you can sync between Apache Druid 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.

Apache Druid objects Nimble objects
Datasources The table-like unit of storage and querying, the main target of reads and ingestion. Custom fields Account-defined contact attributes that carry enrichment or internal identifiers
Segments Time-partitioned immutable files that hold datasource data; ingestion produces them. Contacts Person records with multi-value fields for email, phone, and social profiles; the primary sync entity
Dimensions String and categorical columns used for filtering and grouping in synced queries. Companies Stored as contact records with a company record type, so they sync through the same contacts resource
Metrics Numeric columns, often pre-aggregated at ingestion via rollup. Deals Pipeline records linked to contacts, synced to keep revenue systems aligned with sales activity
Ingestion Supervisors Long-running specs that pull from streams like Kafka; the write path into Druid. Tasks To-do items tied to contacts, mirrored into work-management tools or reporting tables
Lookups Key-value mappings joined at query time, refreshable from external systems. Activities Calls, events, and interaction history used for engagement reporting outside Nimble

How the Apache Druid and Nimble connectors work

Apache Druid

Integration surface
REST API (SQL over HTTP and native JSON queries); JDBC via Avatica
Authentication
Deployment-dependent: basic authentication or an authenticator extension; often fronted by a proxy
Change detection
Not applicable for reads out (polling by time interval); data enters Druid through streaming or batch ingestion rather than row updates
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No fixed API quotas; query concurrency is bounded by broker and historical node capacity

Nimble

Integration surface
REST API (JSON)
Authentication
API key; OAuth 2.0 available for registered applications
Change detection
polling on record modification timestamps
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
subject to per-account API request quotas
