Why teams connect Amazon Redshift and Apache Pinot

Keep tables consistent across Amazon Redshift and Apache Pinot, for a migration, a multi-warehouse stack, or a dataset two platforms both need.

Companies end up with two warehouses for practical reasons: a migration in progress, teams that standardized on different platforms, an acquisition, or tools that only connect to one of them. The result is the same dataset maintained twice, with duplicated pipelines and numbers that almost match.

Stacksync syncs tables between Amazon Redshift and Apache Pinot continuously, in either or both directions. Rows changed on one platform appear on the other within seconds, with schema and type mapping handled, so both warehouses answer questions with the same data.

Common use cases

  • 01 Publish finance rollups computed in Redshift back to spreadsheets or operational tools.
  • 02 Feed customer 360 tables built in Redshift to support and success platforms.
  • 03 Query per-account usage metrics from Pinot and sync them into CRM fields so sales sees product activity.
  • 04 Push reference and dimension data into Pinot via batch segment loads to enrich event queries.

Common sync patterns

Consolidation after M&A

Bring the acquired company's warehouse data across continuously instead of through one-off dumps.

Migration without a big bang

When one platform is replacing the other, keep tables mirrored while workloads move over gradually, and cut over with nothing to backfill.

Serve tools that only connect to one platform

Mirror the datasets a BI tool, notebook, or application needs onto the platform it can actually reach.

What you can sync between Amazon Redshift and Apache Pinot

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.

Amazon Redshift objects Apache Pinot objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces used to organize synced tables and control grants. Schemas Column definitions (dimensions, metrics, time columns) mapped during integration setup. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Tables Columnar tables used as sync destinations for SaaS and database data. Tables The queryable unit, defined as offline, real-time, or hybrid; the main read target. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Users and Groups Principals used to grant a sync connection scoped access. Offline Tables Batch-loaded tables merged with real-time data at query time. Users and Groups is specific to Amazon Redshift and Offline Tables to Apache Pinot — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Top-level containers within a cluster or serverless workgroup. Indexes Inverted, range, and star-tree indexes that determine which sync queries run at low latency. Databases is specific to Amazon Redshift and Indexes to Apache Pinot — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views readable as modeled sources for reverse syncs. Tenants Logical groupings that isolate workloads on shared clusters. Views is specific to Amazon Redshift and Tenants to Apache Pinot — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Precomputed results that downstream syncs can read for performance. Segments Immutable data files that batch ingestion uploads and the cluster serves. Materialized Views is specific to Amazon Redshift and Segments to Apache Pinot — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Redshift and Apache Pinot

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.

Amazon Redshift Apache Pinot Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Amazon Redshift for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling or query-based diffing.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Apache Pinot as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon Redshift: Bounded by cluster or serverless capacity and concurrency settings rather than API quotas.
  • Apache Pinot: No fixed API quotas; query throughput depends on broker and server sizing.
