Why teams connect Active Directory and Rockset

Land the users, groups, and access events from Active Directory in Rockset continuously for security analytics, and write computed results back — without building or maintaining a pipeline.

Active Directory is the record of who exists and what they can reach; Rockset is where the business measures everything else. The two overlap on people and their access — the same users, groups, roles, and events that Active Directory governs are what security, compliance, and analytics teams want to query in Rockset. Getting them there usually means a brittle export that runs overnight and hands auditors a snapshot that is already out of date.

Stacksync syncs Service principals & applications, Organizational units, Organizational contacts, Users from Active Directory into tables in Rockset in real time, and the connection works in both directions: values computed in Rockset, such as risk scores or access-review decisions, can be written back to attributes in Active Directory where the identity team acts on them. Schema changes are handled, API limits are managed, and the sync is something you configure rather than a pipeline you keep alive.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Postgres or DynamoDB tables into collections for low-latency aggregations without loading a batch warehouse.
  • 02 Read query results back into an operational database to expose computed metrics to applications.
  • 03 Keep security-group memberships aligned with application entitlement tables so access reflects the right teams as they change.
  • 04 Read Devices and service principals into a database for identity, asset, and license inventory across the tenant.

Common sync patterns

Risk and review results back on the account

Risk scores, anomaly flags, or access-review outcomes computed in Rockset write back to attributes on the matching user in Active Directory, where the identity team can act on them.

Directory data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Users, groups, and roles from Active Directory arrive in Rockset as queryable tables, current within seconds instead of a nightly directory export.

Access and sign-in analytics

Sign-in and access events from Active Directory land in Rockset, so security and compliance teams can query who reached what, and when, alongside the rest of the business's data.

What you can sync between Active Directory and Rockset

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 Rockset objects How this pairing syncs
Devices Registered and joined device objects; typically read into a database for inventory and compliance reporting. Query Lambdas Named, parameterized SQL queries invoked over REST to read synced data. Devices is specific to Active Directory and Query Lambdas to Rockset — 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. Aliases Stable names that point at collections, used to swap datasets without changing queries. Directory roles is specific to Active Directory and Aliases to Rockset — 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. Integrations Managed source connections (databases, streams, object storage) feeding collections. Service principals & applications is specific to Active Directory and Integrations to Rockset — 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. Virtual Instances Isolated compute units that separate ingest from query workloads. Organizational units is specific to Active Directory and Virtual Instances to Rockset — 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. Collections Schemaless document containers that ingested and synced records land in. Organizational contacts is specific to Active Directory and Collections to Rockset — 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. Documents JSON records addressable by _id, written via the Write API in sync pipelines. Users is specific to Active Directory and Documents to Rockset — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Active Directory and Rockset

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 Rockset 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 Rockset as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rockset Active Directory Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Rockset for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via SQL queries on timestamp fields.

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.

How the Active Directory and Rockset 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.
