Why teams connect AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Front

Mirror Front's data into AWS Aurora PostgreSQL so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Front through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL.

Stacksync mirrors Accounts, Inboxes, Tags, Teammates from Front into Replication slots and publications, Databases and schemas, Tables, Rows in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Front, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Sync conversations, messages, and tags into Postgres for response-time and volume analytics across inboxes.
  • Write CRM account tier, owner, and renewal data into Front contact and account custom fields so it shows next to the conversation.
  • Sync JSONB-heavy application data into structured objects in downstream business systems.
  • Keep a customer-facing Aurora database aligned with an internal admin tool, with writes accepted on both sides.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Front with a query

Records from Front are ordinary rows in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Front from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Stacksync propagates the change into Front, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Front

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 Front objects
Views and materialized views Usable as read-only sources for filtered or precomputed sync datasets. Inboxes Shared queues that conversations live in; used to segment reporting by team or channel.
Foreign keys Relationship metadata that syncs can translate into object references elsewhere. Tags Labels applied to conversations; drive routing and category-level analytics.
Replication slots and publications The logical replication objects that power log-based CDC. Teammates Agents; used for ownership mapping and workload reporting.
Databases and schemas PostgreSQL's two-level namespace scopes which tables a sync connection targets. Channels Connected addresses (email, SMS, chat); define where messages originate and send from.
Tables The core sync unit; rows are matched across systems by primary key. Conversations The central threaded unit that messages, comments, and tags attach to; synced for support analytics.
Rows Inserted, updated, and deleted in both directions during bi-directional syncs. Messages Inbound and outbound emails, chats, and SMS within a conversation; read out for response-time reporting.
