Mixpanel is a product analytics tool that allows businesses to track and analyze user behavior across apps and websites. Postgres, on the other hand, is an open-source, highly robust, and scalable relational database management system that supports a wide range of data types and advanced features.

With Erathos, your Mixpanel data lands on Amazon S3 in organized, query-ready files without your team needing to write a single line of ETL code. This paves the way for querying via Athena or Spark and archiving your complete historical data without the costs of a traditional data warehouse.

### What Mixpanel data does Erathos sync to PostgreSQL?

The integration automatically syncs key Mixpanel objects:

- **Events**: all tracked events with custom properties
- **Sessions**: source, duration, device, and behavioral data
- **Users**: profiles, properties, and activity history
- **Conversion Funnels**: steps, drop-offs, and rates per segment
- **Cohorts**: retention and engagement over time
- **Custom Properties**: event properties and user properties defined by your team

### Why sync Mixpanel to Amazon S3?

In Amazon S3, your Mixpanel data is stored in open formats, ready to be queried via Athena, Spark, or any analytics engine, without being locked into a specific data warehouse.

### How it works

Erathos connects to Mixpanel via the official API and syncs your data incrementally: only new or updated records are processed in each run, keeping pipelines fast and Amazon S3 costs predictable. You choose the sync frequency (ranging from every 5 minutes to daily), the objects to sync, and the destination dataset. Every run is logged with full observability: execution time, rows processed, error context, and instant alerts via Slack or email if anything goes wrong.

### End-to-end observability

Stop finding out about Mixpanel failures only after the business team complains. Every run is logged with runtime, rows processed, and error context. Automatic alerts via Slack, Discord, or email as soon as something goes off track — so your data stays fresh for analysis.
