Why teams connect Drift and YugabyteDB

Treat Drift like part of your database: its records live in YugabyteDB as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in YugabyteDB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Accounts, Users, Playbooks, Meetings from Drift into Databases and Keyspaces, Tables, Indexes, Materialized Views in YugabyteDB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Drift with validation intact. Go-to-market teams keep working in the CRM, engineers keep working in the database, and neither has to think about the other.

Common use cases

  • Enrich Drift contact and account records with firmographic or product data from an internal database to sharpen playbook targeting.
  • Sync meetings booked in Drift to CRM activities so pipeline attribution stays accurate.
  • Sync reference data such as pricing or entitlements from an ERP into YugabyteDB for globally distributed low-latency reads.
  • Consolidate data from regional YugabyteDB clusters into one reporting store.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to YugabyteDB sync onto the matching records in Drift, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Drift API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Drift arrive as row changes in YugabyteDB, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

What you can sync between Drift and YugabyteDB

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.

Drift objects YugabyteDB objects
Conversations Chat threads with status and participants; the center of Drift's data model. Schemas Postgres-style namespaces in YSQL used to organize synced data.
Messages Individual messages within a conversation, used for transcript and intent analysis. Sequences ID generation objects relevant when syncing writes into YSQL tables.
Accounts Company records used for account-based routing and targeting. CDC Streams Change streams over the storage-layer WAL consumed through logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors.
Users Agents and sales reps who own conversations and meetings. Databases and Keyspaces Top-level containers for the YSQL (Postgres-style) and YCQL (Cassandra-style) APIs respectively.
Playbooks Bot flows that generate conversations and qualify visitors. Tables Distributed SQL tables split into tablets; the primary read and write targets.
Meetings Meetings booked through Drift, synced to CRM as sales activities. Indexes Global secondary indexes maintained transactionally alongside table writes.
