Why teams connect Azure OpenAI and ClickHouse

Flow Azure OpenAI data into ClickHouse in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

Azure OpenAI is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into ClickHouse, so ClickHouse always reflects the current state of Azure OpenAI — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

ClickHouse holds the raw records the business runs on; Azure OpenAI turns those records into embeddings, scores, labels, and summaries. The two meet wherever a warehouse row needs to be enriched by a model and the result needs somewhere durable to live. Most teams stitch that meeting together with export scripts and a queue, then spend their time keeping the glue alive.

The payoff is that model output stops living in a separate place from the data it describes. Once results sit in ClickHouse, they join against billing, product, and usage tables already there, so you can report on quality, cost, and coverage without moving anything by hand.

Common use cases

  • 01 Land Fine-tuning jobs with their status, base model, and result Files in a warehouse to power MLOps dashboards without per-viewer API calls.
  • 02 Poll Batch jobs into an operational database and fire the next pipeline step when a job's status turns to completed.
  • 03 Consolidate logs and business records from multiple sources into MergeTree tables for retention and reporting.
  • 04 Land product event data alongside synced CRM accounts so analysts join usage and revenue in one place.

Common sync patterns

Feed live warehouse records to Azure OpenAI

Rows added or changed in ClickHouse flow into Azure OpenAI within seconds, so embeddings, classifications, and enrichments are computed on current data rather than a nightly extract.

Model output back in the warehouse

Scores, labels, embeddings, or summaries produced in Azure OpenAI land in ClickHouse as columns or tables, queryable and joinable with the rest of the business data.

Keep an index in step with the source

As records change in ClickHouse, matching Batch jobs, Usage and quota, Assistants, Vector stores in Azure OpenAI are inserted, updated, or removed, so what Azure OpenAI serves reflects the warehouse instead of a stale snapshot.

What you can sync between Azure OpenAI and ClickHouse

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.

Azure OpenAI objects ClickHouse objects How this pairing syncs
Usage and quota Per-deployment TPM/RPM consumption and remaining quota, read from usage endpoints and Azure Monitor for cost and throttling reporting. Tables (MergeTree family) Columnar, append-optimized tables that serve as the destination for high-volume sync loads. Usage and quota is specific to Azure OpenAI and Tables (MergeTree family) to ClickHouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Assistants Persistent assistants (preview) with instructions, tools, and linked files; read as configuration inventory, not authored via sync. Databases Namespaces that group tables and scope permissions for sync users. Assistants is specific to Azure OpenAI and Databases to ClickHouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Vector stores File collections (preview) backing file-search retrieval; read as metadata such as name, file counts, and status. Views Saved queries used as curated, read-only sync sources. Vector stores is specific to Azure OpenAI and Views to ClickHouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Deployments Named model deployments (model, version, SKU, assigned TPM capacity) read as a control-plane inventory via Azure Resource Manager; read-only in sync. Materialized views Insert-time transformations that reshape incoming synced rows into aggregates. Deployments is specific to Azure OpenAI and Materialized views to ClickHouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Models Catalog of base and fine-tunable models available per region; read-only reference data used to resolve deployment and fine-tuning targets. Distributed tables Query-routing tables over cluster shards in self-managed deployments. Models is specific to Azure OpenAI and Distributed tables to ClickHouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Fine-tuning jobs Training jobs with status, base model, hyperparameters, and result files; status is polled from queued through succeeded or failed. Dictionaries In-memory lookup structures refreshed from external sources, sometimes fed by syncs. Fine-tuning jobs is specific to Azure OpenAI and Dictionaries to ClickHouse — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure OpenAI and ClickHouse

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.

Azure OpenAI ClickHouse Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Azure OpenAI for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling: list endpoints plus GET on job IDs for status.

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

ClickHouse Azure OpenAI Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls ClickHouse for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No log-based CDC for consumers.

DeliveryAzure OpenAI does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Azure OpenAI's output flows back as field updates on the originating ClickHouse records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Azure OpenAI: Per-deployment TPM and RPM limits (about 6 RPM per 1000 TPM), scoped by region and subscription; control-plane ARM calls throttle separately.
