Why teams connect AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google AlloyDB

Keep AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google AlloyDB synchronized in real time, across engines, regions, or services, in one or both directions.

Two databases that must agree is one of the oldest problems in engineering: different engines for different workloads, separate services with overlapping reference data, a migration in flight, or regional instances that share a subset of records. Hand-rolled replication across systems means change capture, conflict handling, and type mapping, all built and maintained by your team.

Stacksync syncs tables or collections between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google AlloyDB continuously and bi-directionally, translating types between the two engines and resolving conflicts by rules you configure. Rows written on either side appear on the other within seconds.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep a customer-facing Aurora database aligned with an internal admin tool, with writes accepted on both sides.
  • 02 Feed operational dashboards from a read replica while the writer handles sync traffic.
  • 03 Use logical replication to feed AlloyDB changes into warehouses or event pipelines without batch jobs.
  • 04 Consolidate SaaS data into AlloyDB and serve analytics from its columnar engine without a separate OLAP store.

Common sync patterns

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google AlloyDB, so each workload runs on the engine that suits it.

Migration with zero-downtime cutover

When one database is replacing the other, sync both directions during the transition and switch traffic when ready, without a freeze window.

Shared reference data between services

Services that own separate databases stay consistent on the records they share, without a custom replication layer.

What you can sync between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google AlloyDB

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.

AWS Aurora PostgreSQL objects Google AlloyDB objects How this pairing syncs
Tables The core sync unit; rows are matched across systems by primary key. Tables Primary read/write target for bi-directional sync with CRMs and other systems. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Primary keys and constraints Identify rows for upserts and enforce integrity on sync writes. Sequences ID generation relevant when external systems insert rows. Primary keys and constraints is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Sequences to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views and materialized views Usable as read-only sources for filtered or precomputed sync datasets. Replication Slots Logical replication artifacts that back log-based change capture. Views and materialized views is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Replication Slots to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Foreign keys Relationship metadata that syncs can translate into object references elsewhere. Databases Standard PostgreSQL databases within an AlloyDB cluster that syncs connect to. Foreign keys is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Databases to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Replication slots and publications The logical replication objects that power log-based CDC. Schemas Namespaces used to separate synced SaaS data from application tables. Replication slots and publications is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Schemas to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases and schemas PostgreSQL's two-level namespace scopes which tables a sync connection targets. Views Curated projections used as read-only sync sources. Databases and schemas is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Views to Google AlloyDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google AlloyDB

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.

AWS Aurora PostgreSQL Google AlloyDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication (WAL decoding through replication slots), with timestamp polling as a fallback.

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