Why teams connect AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google Cloud SQL

Keep AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google Cloud SQL 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 Cloud SQL 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 Feed operational dashboards from a read replica while the writer handles sync traffic.
  • 02 Expose ERP records such as customers, orders, and invoices as Postgres tables the engineering team can query and update with plain SQL.
  • 03 Keep an internal admin application backed by Cloud SQL consistent with an ERP or billing system.
  • 04 Migrate from a self-managed database by syncing Cloud SQL and the legacy system during cutover.

Common sync patterns

Regional or environment copies

Mirror selected tables to another region or environment continuously, filtered to just the rows that should travel.

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google Cloud SQL, 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.

What you can sync between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google Cloud SQL

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 Cloud SQL objects How this pairing syncs
Tables The core sync unit; rows are matched across systems by primary key. Tables Mapped directly to sync targets; schema changes can be propagated. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Rows Inserted, updated, and deleted in both directions during bi-directional syncs. Rows Read and written by primary key during each sync cycle. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Columns Rich Postgres types including JSONB and arrays are mapped to the paired system's fields. Schemas Namespace tables in PostgreSQL and SQL Server instances. Columns is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Schemas to Google Cloud SQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Primary keys and constraints Identify rows for upserts and enforce integrity on sync writes. Views Read-only sources for shaping data before syncing it out. Primary keys and constraints is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Views to Google Cloud SQL — 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. Transaction logs MySQL binlog or PostgreSQL WAL, the source for log-based change capture. Views and materialized views is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Transaction logs to Google Cloud SQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Foreign keys Relationship metadata that syncs can translate into object references elsewhere. Instances The managed MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server server a sync connects to. Foreign keys is specific to AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Instances to Google Cloud SQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and Google Cloud SQL

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

Google Cloud SQL AWS Aurora PostgreSQL Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Google Cloud SQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Engine-dependent log-based CDC: MySQL binlog, PostgreSQL logical replication, SQL Server change tracking.

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