Why teams connect Azure OpenAI and CockroachDB

Sync the records in CockroachDB into Azure OpenAI and land its embeddings, classifications, and generated fields back on the same rows, in real time and without a pipeline to maintain.

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

AI systems do not hold customers or invoices the way business apps do. What they hold is derived from your data: the vectors and metadata in a vector store, or the classifications, extracted fields, and generated text a model produces over records it was given. CockroachDB is where those source records actually live. The bridge between the two is the row itself, since an item in Azure OpenAI and the record in CockroachDB it describes are two halves of the same thing, and they drift the moment one is updated without the other.

Stacksync syncs Changefeeds, Databases, Schemas, Tables in CockroachDB with Usage and quota, Assistants, Vector stores, Deployments in Azure OpenAI in real time. Rows created or changed in CockroachDB flow into Azure OpenAI so inference and embedding run on current data, and the scores, labels, and generated fields Azure OpenAI produces flow back onto the matching rows in CockroachDB, mapped field by field. A change on either side appears on the other within seconds, with no extraction job or webhook plumbing to keep alive.

Because matching is by a stable identifier, every row in CockroachDB stays tied to its AI-side counterpart in Azure OpenAI. Retrieval, enrichment, and generated content always resolve back to the record they came from, so there are no orphaned vectors and no labels describing a version of a row that no longer exists.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror Assistants and Vector stores configuration into a database as an auditable inventory of retrieval assets and their linked files.
  • 02 Sync the Deployments inventory (model, version, TPM capacity) into Postgres so platform teams track every Azure OpenAI deployment across subscriptions in SQL.
  • 03 Use changefeeds to propagate row changes from a multi-region cluster into a warehouse or search index.
  • 04 Keep reference data consistent between CockroachDB and regional application databases.

Common sync patterns

One record, one identifier

Each item in Azure OpenAI carries the key of the row in CockroachDB it came from, so results resolve back to the exact record with nothing orphaned or duplicated.

Run the AI on current data

Rows created or changed in CockroachDB flow into Azure OpenAI as they happen, so embeddings, classifications, and prompts run on the latest records instead of a nightly snapshot.

Write results back onto the record

Scores, labels, extracted fields, or generated text produced in Azure OpenAI land on the matching row in CockroachDB, next to the source data your applications already query.

What you can sync between Azure OpenAI and CockroachDB

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 CockroachDB objects How this pairing syncs
Assistants Persistent assistants (preview) with instructions, tools, and linked files; read as configuration inventory, not authored via sync. Indexes Secondary indexes that keep sync lookup queries fast on key columns. Assistants is specific to Azure OpenAI and Indexes to CockroachDB — 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. Sequences ID generators that matter when writes originate from an external system. Vector stores is specific to Azure OpenAI and Sequences to CockroachDB — 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. Changefeeds Built-in CDC streams that emit row-level changes to external sinks. Deployments is specific to Azure OpenAI and Changefeeds to CockroachDB — 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. Databases Logical containers a sync connects to, addressed like PostgreSQL databases. Models is specific to Azure OpenAI and Databases to CockroachDB — 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. Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables from application tables. Fine-tuning jobs is specific to Azure OpenAI and Schemas to CockroachDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Files Uploaded training, validation, and batch-input files plus generated output files; listed and read by ID, not written back in sync. Tables The core read/write target; rows sync bi-directionally with SaaS objects or other databases. Files is specific to Azure OpenAI and Tables to CockroachDB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure OpenAI and CockroachDB

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

CockroachDB Azure OpenAI Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in CockroachDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. CDC via changefeeds, which stream row-level changes.

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 CockroachDB 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.
  • CockroachDB: No API rate limits in the SaaS sense; throughput is bounded by cluster capacity.
