Why teams connect Active Directory and Redis Enterprise
Close the gap between your application data and your directory: Redis Enterprise and Active Directory share users, groups, and access in real time, in both directions.
Active Directory is the system of record for who people are and what they can reach: users, the groups they belong to, and the applications assigned to them. Redis Enterprise holds the operational data those same people show up in, whether an employee or member table that decides who should have an account at all, a customers list, or the rows an application checks before it authorizes an action. The two describe overlapping users and groups, and when a nightly export or a hand-run script is all that connects them, accounts lag joiners and leavers and the application authorizes against a stale picture of who has access.
Stacksync syncs Pub/Sub channels, Search indexes, Keys (Strings), Hashes in Redis Enterprise with Organizational units, Organizational contacts, Users, Groups in Active Directory field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, with the directory holding credentials and group membership and the database holding the source list of people who should exist at all, and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent, resolving conflicts by rules you set. A person added to a table becomes an account within seconds, a departure disables one just as fast, and the directory's users and groups are always present in your tables as ordinary rows.
Common use cases
- 01 Sync Postgres reference tables into RedisJSON documents that power API responses and personalization lookups.
- 02 Publish record-change events into Redis Streams so microservices react to upstream CRM updates without polling.
- 03 Read Users, Groups, and directoryRole assignments into a warehouse for periodic access reviews and SOC 2 audit evidence.
- 04 Keep security-group memberships aligned with application entitlement tables so access reflects the right teams as they change.
Common sync patterns
Keep group and role membership aligned
A group or role change made in either system updates the other, so the entitlements an application enforces match what the directory grants.
One profile, kept current
A name, department, email, or manager corrected in either system updates the other, so the profile the directory shows and the data the application reads stop drifting apart.
Provision accounts from the source of truth
When a person is added to the employee, member, or customer table in Redis Enterprise, Stacksync creates the matching user in Active Directory with the right attributes, so access starts from live data instead of a manual ticket.
What you can sync between Active Directory and Redis 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.
| Active Directory objects | Redis Enterprise objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Devices Registered and joined device objects; typically read into a database for inventory and compliance reporting. | Search indexes Secondary indexes (RediSearch) that make synced hashes and JSON documents queryable. | Devices is specific to Active Directory and Search indexes to Redis Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Directory roles Admin role assignments (directoryRole); read for access reviews and least-privilege governance. | Keys (Strings) Simple key-value pairs used to cache individual synced records or lookup values. | Directory roles is specific to Active Directory and Keys (Strings) to Redis Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Service principals & applications App registrations and enterprise apps; read-mostly for entitlement and license inventory. | Hashes Field-value maps that commonly hold one synced row per hash, keyed by record ID. | Service principals & applications is specific to Active Directory and Hashes to Redis Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Organizational units On-prem AD DS containers (LDAP organizationalUnit) used to scope which users and groups a sync includes. | JSON documents Native JSON storage (RedisJSON) for nested records synced from APIs or document stores. | Organizational units is specific to Active Directory and JSON documents to Redis Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Organizational contacts Directory contact objects (orgContact); synced for shared address-book and CRM person records. | Sets Unordered unique-member collections used for membership checks like segment or ID lists. | Organizational contacts is specific to Active Directory and Sets to Redis Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Users User accounts in Entra ID and on-prem AD DS; synced two-way to create, update attributes, and enable or disable accounts. | Sorted Sets Score-ordered collections used for rankings, priority queues, and time-ordered indexes. | Users is specific to Active Directory and Sorted Sets to Redis Enterprise — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between Active Directory and Redis Enterprise
Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.
Active Directory Redis Enterprise Sub-second propagation
DetectionActive Directory notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Microsoft Graph delta query (change tracking) for Users and Groups, plus change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) for near-real-time triggers.
DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Redis Enterprise as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.
Redis Enterprise Active Directory Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Redis Enterprise for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Keyspace notifications over pub/sub or reads from Redis Streams.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Active Directory through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Rate-limit considerations
- Active Directory: Graph throttles by resource-unit cost per app per tenant in 10-second windows (about 3,500–8,000 units by tenant size); directory delta tokens expire after ~7 days.
- Redis Enterprise: Throughput is bounded by provisioned cluster capacity rather than published API rate limits.

How the Active Directory and Redis Enterprise connectors work
Active Directory
- Integration surface
- Microsoft Graph REST API (Entra ID / cloud) and LDAP/LDAPS (on-premises AD DS)
- Authentication
- OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform — an app registration with application or delegated permissions (e.g. User.ReadWrite.All, Group.ReadWrite.All) and admin consent; on-prem AD DS uses a bound service account over LDAPS.
- Change detection
- Microsoft Graph delta query (change tracking) for Users and Groups, plus change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) for near-real-time triggers; on-prem AD DS uses the DirSync control and uSNChanged polling.

FAQ
Active Directory and Redis Enterprise integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Active Directory and Redis Enterprise: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Active Directory's Devices and Directory roles), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Change detection on Active Directory: Microsoft Graph delta query (change tracking) for Users and Groups, plus change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) for near-real-time triggers; on-prem AD DS uses the DirSync control and uSNChanged polling. On Redis Enterprise: Keyspace notifications over pub/sub or reads from Redis Streams; no transaction-log CDC surface for data. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
-
On the Redis Enterprise side: Pub/Sub channels, Search indexes, Keys (Strings), Hashes, plus custom fields where Redis Enterprise exposes them. On the Active Directory side: Organizational units, Organizational contacts, Users, Groups. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
-
Common patterns for Active Directory and Redis Enterprise: Keep group and role membership aligned; One profile, kept current; Provision accounts from the source of truth. A group or role change made in either system updates the other, so the entitlements an application enforces match what the directory grants.
