Why teams connect Apache Cassandra and Egnyte

Keep Apache Cassandra and Egnyte in step: a row in Apache Cassandra for every file in Egnyte, 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 Apache Cassandra says a file exists and carries its name, location, and status, while Egnyte 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 User-Defined Types, Collections, Counters, Keyspaces in Apache Cassandra with Events and Audit reports, Files, Folders, Users in Egnyte 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 high-volume event or profile tables from Cassandra into a warehouse for analytics that CQL cannot express.
  • 02 Sync customer profile data between Cassandra and a CRM so operational apps and sales tools agree.
  • 03 Provision and deprovision Egnyte Users and Groups from an HRIS or IdP so folder access follows employee onboarding and offboarding.
  • 04 Two-way sync of Files and Folders between Egnyte and an operational database or another content store, keeping the folder hierarchy aligned.

Common sync patterns

A landing zone for incoming files

Files that arrive in a folder or bucket in Egnyte become rows in Apache Cassandra 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 Apache Cassandra are written out to Egnyte 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.

A queryable index of the file store

Every file or object in Egnyte shows up as a row in Apache Cassandra, with its name, folder or key, size, type, and modified date as columns, so the contents of the store can be listed, filtered, and joined like any other table.

What you can sync between Apache Cassandra and Egnyte

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.

Apache Cassandra objects Egnyte objects How this pairing syncs
Counters Increment-only counter columns, usually read-only in syncs. Groups Groups and membership managed via the Groups API; kept aligned with directory or IdP groups that drive folder access. Counters is specific to Apache Cassandra and Groups to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Keyspaces Top-level namespaces with replication settings that scope a sync connection. Permissions Folder permissions listed, set, and removed via the Permissions API; effective permission for a user/folder is computable. Keyspaces is specific to Apache Cassandra and Permissions to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Wide-column tables addressed by partition key, the unit of row-level sync. Links Shared file and folder links created, listed, and revoked via the Links API; useful for governing and auditing external sharing. Tables is specific to Apache Cassandra and Links to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions and Rows Records located by partition and clustering keys during reads and upserts. Metadata Custom metadata keys and project fields on files/folders via the Metadata API; written for classification and read back for reporting. Partitions and Rows is specific to Apache Cassandra and Metadata to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized Views Server-maintained denormalized views; considered experimental and disabled by default in recent releases. Events and Audit reports File, login, permission, and sharing activity read via the Events API and Audit Reporting API; consumed read-only for compliance. Materialized Views is specific to Apache Cassandra and Events and Audit reports to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Secondary Indexes Optional indexes that allow filtered reads outside the partition key. Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. Secondary Indexes is specific to Apache Cassandra and Files to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Cassandra and Egnyte

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.

Apache Cassandra Egnyte Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Apache Cassandra are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Commit-log based CDC on tables with CDC enabled, or polling using writetime metadata and timestamp columns.

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

Egnyte Apache Cassandra Sub-second propagation

DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Cassandra: No API quotas; throughput is governed by cluster capacity and consistency-level choices.
  • Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
