Why teams connect Cloudera Data Platform and Customer.io

Get the data locked inside Customer.io into Cloudera Data Platform as live tables, and send results back where Customer.io can use them, without writing a pipeline.

Whatever Customer.io is used for, it accumulates data the rest of the company wants to analyze, and that data usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay for it.

Stacksync syncs Objects, Events, Segments, Campaigns from Customer.io into tables in Cloudera Data Platform continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in Cloudera Data Platform can also be written back into fields in Customer.io where the tool can use them.

Common use cases

  • Push CRM segments and lead status into Customer.io so messaging respects sales stage.
  • Land delivery and engagement events (sent, opened, clicked, bounced) from reporting webhooks into a warehouse for attribution analysis.
  • Publish CRM or ERP records into CDP so enterprise analytics runs alongside existing data lake workloads.
  • Consolidate tables from on-prem and cloud CDP environments into a single cloud warehouse target.

Cross-tool reporting

Combine Customer.io's data with data from every other synced system to answer questions no single tool can.

Where Customer.io accepts updates: operational write-back

Segments, scores, or reference values computed in Cloudera Data Platform sync back onto records in Customer.io, putting analysis where the work happens.

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Cloudera Data Platform preserves a queryable record even as data ages out of Customer.io or gets changed inside it.

What you can sync between Cloudera Data Platform and Customer.io

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.

Cloudera Data Platform objects Customer.io objects
Impala tables The same metastore tables served through Impala for lower-latency SQL reads. Broadcasts One-off sends to segments or audiences, triggerable via API.
Kudu tables Storage engine tables that support row-level inserts, updates, and deletes. Deliveries / Messages Per-recipient message records whose lifecycle events flow out through reporting webhooks.
Iceberg tables Open table format tables in newer CDP versions, with snapshot metadata usable for incremental reads. Newsletters Recurring email sends with performance metrics available for reporting syncs.
Views SQL views that can present curated, sync-ready projections of raw lake data. People Profiles with attributes, matched on identifiers like id or email; the main write target of data syncs.
Partitions Table partitions (often by date) that incremental extraction jobs use to scope reads. Objects Non-person entities such as accounts or companies, related to people for account-level messaging.
Object store / HDFS files Underlying Parquet or ORC files on HDFS or cloud storage backing the tables. Events Behavioral events sent via the Track API that trigger campaigns.
