Why teams connect AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Firebolt

Connect AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Firebolt with one live, two-way sync: operational rows flow into the warehouse, and computed results flow back where systems can read them fast.

Operational databases and analytical warehouses want the same data at different moments. Analysts want AWS Aurora PostgreSQL's rows in Firebolt, current and joinable, without a change-data-capture pipeline to maintain. Engineers want the outputs of warehouse work, such as aggregates, features, and segments, available in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL sync into Firebolt in real time, and result tables in Firebolt sync back into AWS Aurora PostgreSQL, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Keep dimension tables aligned with source systems while high-volume event data loads through separate batch pipelines.
  • Sync aggregated results from Firebolt back to operational tools that need computed metrics (reverse ETL).
  • Expose ERP records such as customers, orders, and invoices as Postgres tables the engineering team can query and update with plain SQL.
  • Capture row-level changes with logical replication and propagate them to SaaS tools without batch jobs.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from AWS Aurora PostgreSQL land in Firebolt as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Firebolt sync into AWS Aurora PostgreSQL, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

Fresh analytics without loading windows

Because changes stream continuously, analysts query current data instead of waiting for last night's load.

What you can sync between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Firebolt

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.

AWS Aurora PostgreSQL objects Firebolt objects
Rows Inserted, updated, and deleted in both directions during bi-directional syncs. Engines Compute resources that must be running for a sync to read or write.
Columns Rich Postgres types including JSONB and arrays are mapped to the paired system's fields. Databases Logical containers holding the tables a sync targets.
Primary keys and constraints Identify rows for upserts and enforce integrity on sync writes. Tables Managed columnar tables written with SQL; the main sync destination.
Views and materialized views Usable as read-only sources for filtered or precomputed sync datasets. External tables References to files in object storage used to stage bulk loads.
Foreign keys Relationship metadata that syncs can translate into object references elsewhere. Views Curated query surfaces commonly used as sources for reverse ETL.
Replication slots and publications The logical replication objects that power log-based CDC. Aggregating indexes Precomputed rollups maintained at write time; incremental loads update them automatically.

How the AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Firebolt connectors work

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

Firebolt

Integration surface
SQL over a REST API, with JDBC, Python, and Node.js SDKs
Authentication
Service account credentials (client ID and secret) exchanged for OAuth 2.0 tokens
Change detection
Polling; Firebolt is an analytics destination and does not expose a change feed
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No fixed request quota; throughput depends on the engine size attached to the workload
