Why teams connect Customer.io and Starburst Enterprise

Get the data locked inside Customer.io into Starburst Enterprise 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 Starburst Enterprise continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in Starburst Enterprise can also be written back into fields in Customer.io where the tool can use them.

Common use cases

  • Sync product usage and billing attributes from Postgres onto Customer.io people so lifecycle campaigns trigger on real product behavior.
  • Push CRM segments and lead status into Customer.io so messaging respects sales stage.
  • Read federated views that join warehouse, lake, and database tables, then sync the result into operational tools like a CRM
  • Expose Iceberg or Hive lake tables to sync jobs through one SQL endpoint without moving the data first

Analytics on Customer.io's data

Records and events from Customer.io land in Starburst Enterprise as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

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 Starburst Enterprise sync back onto records in Customer.io, putting analysis where the work happens.

What you can sync between Customer.io and Starburst Enterprise

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.

Customer.io objects Starburst Enterprise objects
Deliveries / Messages Per-recipient message records whose lifecycle events flow out through reporting webhooks. Columns Typed per the Trino type system, mapped from each source's native types.
Newsletters Recurring email sends with performance metrics available for reporting syncs. Catalogs Each catalog maps to a connector (Iceberg, Hive, PostgreSQL, and others) exposing an external source.
People Profiles with attributes, matched on identifiers like id or email; the main write target of data syncs. Schemas Namespaces within a catalog, mirroring the underlying source's databases or schemas.
Objects Non-person entities such as accounts or companies, related to people for account-level messaging. Tables Queryable relations; writes pass through to sources whose connectors support them.
Events Behavioral events sent via the Track API that trigger campaigns. Views Engine-level SQL views used to shape federated data before syncing it out.
Segments Attribute- or event-based groups; data syncs feed the attributes segments evaluate. Materialized views Precomputed results that make repeated sync reads cheaper.

How the Customer.io and Starburst Enterprise connectors work

Customer.io

Integration surface
REST APIs split by purpose: Track API for data ingestion, App API for campaigns, people lookups, and messages
Authentication
Basic auth with site ID and API key for the Track API; bearer token for the App API
Change detection
Reporting webhooks push message and delivery events; person attribute changes are not streamed and require source-side detection
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Subject to per-API rate limits documented by Customer.io

Starburst Enterprise

Integration surface
ANSI SQL over JDBC/ODBC drivers and the Trino client REST protocol
Authentication
Deployment-dependent: username/password, LDAP, OAuth 2.0, or Kerberos
Change detection
Query-based polling; Starburst is a query engine and exposes no change log of its own
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Throughput is governed by cluster sizing and resource groups rather than API quotas
