Why teams connect Amazon S3 and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

Keep OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) and Amazon S3 in step: a row in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) for every file in Amazon S3, with names, paths, metadata, and status staying consistent in real time, in both directions.

A database holds structured records; a storage system holds the files those records depend on, such as contracts, images, exports, uploads, and documents. The two describe the same things from opposite sides: a row in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) says a file exists and carries its name, location, and status, while Amazon S3 holds the bytes. Linked only by a hand-kept path or a one-off script, the two drift the moment a file is renamed, moved, or deleted and the record still points at where it used to be.

Stacksync syncs Tables, Views, Materialized views, Schemas in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) with Object metadata, Object tags, Object versions, Prefixes (folders) in Amazon S3 bi-directionally and in real time. File attributes, including name, path or object key, size, type, modified time, owner, and tags or custom properties, map field by field to columns on the matching row, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds. New files appear as rows, metadata edits travel in the direction you choose, and deletes stay consistent, with conflict rules you set in place of nightly reconciliation scripts.

Common use cases

  • 01 Replicate operational tables from OCI to an analytics warehouse with log-based CDC instead of nightly batch dumps.
  • 02 Run on-prem Oracle and OCI side by side during a cloud migration while keeping both ends writable.
  • 03 Index every new Object's key, size, LastModified, and user metadata into a Postgres catalog table so applications query S3 contents in SQL instead of paging ListObjectsV2.
  • 04 Two-way sync Object tags with a database so retention or classification labels set in an internal app write back onto S3 objects via the tagging API without rewriting the files.

Common sync patterns

Records that point at documents

Where a record in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) references a file in Amazon S3, such as a contract, an image, an export, or an upload, the reference, path, and status stay consistent as files are renamed, moved, or replaced, so stored links keep resolving.

A landing zone for incoming files

Files that arrive in a folder or bucket in Amazon S3 become rows in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) as they land, so a database-driven process can pick them up without polling the storage system's API.

Continuous archival to file storage

Rows from OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) are written out to Amazon S3 as files on a schedule or as they change, giving a durable, low-cost copy for backup, compliance, or a data lake, without a custom export job to maintain.

What you can sync between Amazon S3 and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

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 S3 objects OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) objects How this pairing syncs
Object metadata System metadata (Content-Type, size, ETag, LastModified) plus user-defined x-amz-meta-* headers; user metadata is fixed at write time and only changeable by rewriting the object. Tables The primary sync surface; rows are read and written directly over SQL Object metadata is specific to Amazon S3 and Tables to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object tags Up to 10 key-value tags per object, mutable in place via the tagging API independent of content, so classification and retention labels sync two-way without rewriting files. Views Read-only projections used to expose curated subsets to downstream systems Object tags is specific to Amazon S3 and Views to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object versions When bucket versioning is enabled every write creates a new version ID; prior versions and delete markers are readable for history and audit syncs. Materialized views Precomputed result sets sometimes used as stable read sources for replication Object versions is specific to Amazon S3 and Materialized views to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Prefixes (folders) Logical path segments in object keys used to scope a sync and to parallelize throughput, since S3 rate limits partition by prefix. Schemas Namespace boundaries that scope which objects a sync connection can access Prefixes (folders) is specific to Amazon S3 and Schemas to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Multipart uploads In-progress large-object uploads assembled from parts; objects above ~100 MB (required above 5 GB) are written this way, and incomplete uploads persist until completed or aborted. Sequences Key generators that matter when writing new rows from external systems Multipart uploads is specific to Amazon S3 and Sequences to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets Top-level, region-scoped containers that hold objects; enumerated to discover the namespaces and prefixes a sync should cover. PL/SQL procedures and packages Server-side logic that can react to synced data or transform it in place Buckets is specific to Amazon S3 and PL/SQL procedures and packages to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon S3 and OCI Database (Oracle Cloud)

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 S3 OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) Sub-second propagation

DetectionAmazon S3 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. S3 Event Notifications push object-created, object-removed, and object-tagging events to SNS, SQS, Lambda, or EventBridge.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) Amazon S3 Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in OCI Database (Oracle Cloud) are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC from redo logs (LogMiner or GoldenGate), or timestamp polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Amazon S3 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon S3: S3 sustains at least 3,500 PUT/COPY/POST/DELETE and 5,500 GET/HEAD requests per second per partitioned prefix and scales higher automatically; bursts can return HTTP 503 SlowDown while it repartitions.
  • OCI Database (Oracle Cloud): Throughput bounded by instance sizing rather than API quotas.
