Why teams connect Amazon Redshift and MariaDB

Connect MariaDB and Amazon Redshift with one live, two-way sync: operational rows flow into the warehouse, and computed results flow back where systems can read them fast.

Operational databases and analytical warehouses want the same data at different moments. Analysts want MariaDB's rows in Amazon Redshift, current and joinable, without a change-data-capture pipeline to maintain. Engineers want the outputs of warehouse work, such as aggregates, features, and segments, available in MariaDB where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in MariaDB sync into Amazon Redshift in real time, and result tables in Amazon Redshift sync back into MariaDB, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • 01 Centralize CRM, ERP, and product data in Redshift so analysts join it with warehouse tables.
  • 02 Publish finance rollups computed in Redshift back to spreadsheets or operational tools.
  • 03 Keep several MariaDB instances aligned with one system of record across environments
  • 04 Two-way sync between a MariaDB application database and a CRM so both systems hold the same customer records

Common sync patterns

Fresh analytics without loading windows

Because changes stream continuously, analysts query current data instead of waiting for last night's load.

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Amazon Redshift and keep MariaDB focused on its operational workload.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from MariaDB land in Amazon Redshift as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

What you can sync between Amazon Redshift and MariaDB

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 MariaDB objects How this pairing syncs
Tables Columnar tables used as sync destinations for SaaS and database data. Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Views SQL views readable as modeled sources for reverse syncs. Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Stored Procedures SQL procedures sometimes invoked around load steps. Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
External Tables (Spectrum) S3-backed tables queryable through Redshift, readable in syncs. Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. External Tables (Spectrum) is specific to Amazon Redshift and Columns to MariaDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users and Groups Principals used to grant a sync connection scoped access. Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. Users and Groups is specific to Amazon Redshift and Primary and Unique Keys to MariaDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Top-level containers within a cluster or serverless workgroup. System-Versioned Tables Temporal tables that retain row history natively, useful for auditing synced changes. Databases is specific to Amazon Redshift and System-Versioned Tables to MariaDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon Redshift and MariaDB

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

MariaDB Amazon Redshift Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in MariaDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Amazon Redshift 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.
  • MariaDB: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources.
