Why teams connect MariaDB and Salesforce

Treat Salesforce like part of your database: its records live in MariaDB 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 MariaDB, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Stacksync mirrors Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities from Salesforce into System-Versioned Tables, JSON Columns, Stored Procedures, Databases (Schemas) in MariaDB with real-time, bi-directional sync. Read CRM records with plain queries; write updates from your application and they appear in Salesforce 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

  • Sync Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities bi-directionally with Postgres so engineering teams read and write CRM data with plain SQL.
  • Write product usage metrics computed in a warehouse onto Account and Contact fields so reps see adoption signals on the record.
  • Feed a warehouse continuously from MariaDB using binlog-based capture instead of scheduled dumps
  • Keep several MariaDB instances aligned with one system of record across environments

Internal tools without API code

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

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

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

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Salesforce become tables in MariaDB you can join with application data directly.

What you can sync between MariaDB and Salesforce

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.

MariaDB objects Salesforce objects
Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. Cases Support records; synced with help desk tools or internal databases for escalation workflows.
Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. Campaigns Marketing membership data; read out for attribution analysis in the warehouse.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Tasks and Events Activity records; usually read-only in syncs to feed activity reporting.
Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Products and Price Books Catalog and pricing data; commonly mastered in an ERP and written into Salesforce.
Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. Custom Objects Org-specific tables with the __c suffix; discoverable via describe metadata so field mappings can be generated.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. Accounts Company records that anchor most syncs; typically mapped to customer tables in a database or ERP.

How the MariaDB and Salesforce connectors work

MariaDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (MySQL-compatible client/server protocol)
Authentication
Database credentials (connection string or parameters), with optional SSL root certificate upload and optional SSH tunnel (SSH user + host)
Change detection
Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources
MariaDB setup guide

Salesforce

Integration surface
REST, SOAP, and Bulk APIs
Authentication
OAuth login via a Salesforce user (browser-based authorization flow); requires "API Enabled" permission for polling mode, plus "Author Apex" and "Customize Application" OR "Modify All Data" for trigger mode
Change detection
Apex triggers are used whenever possible (Salesforce actively notifies Stacksync via an Apex trigger + callout class + remote site setting)
Capabilities

Rate limits
Daily API request allocations vary by edition and license count.
