Why teams connect Azure OpenAI and MySQL

Sync the records in MySQL 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 MySQL, so MySQL 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. MySQL 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 MySQL it describes are two halves of the same thing, and they drift the moment one is updated without the other.

Stacksync syncs Columns, Primary and Unique Keys, JSON Columns, Stored Procedures in MySQL with Deployments, Models, Fine-tuning jobs, Files in Azure OpenAI in real time. Rows created or changed in MySQL 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 MySQL, 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 MySQL 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 Sync the Deployments inventory (model, version, TPM capacity) into Postgres so platform teams track every Azure OpenAI deployment across subscriptions in SQL.
  • 02 Land Fine-tuning jobs with their status, base model, and result Files in a warehouse to power MLOps dashboards without per-viewer API calls.
  • 03 Two-way sync between a MySQL application database and a CRM so operational records and sales records stay identical
  • 04 Expose SaaS objects as MySQL tables so legacy internal tools built on MySQL can read live business data

Common sync patterns

Keep derived data fresh as sources change

When a row in MySQL is updated or removed, its counterpart in Azure OpenAI is updated or removed too, so nothing in Azure OpenAI describes a record that has since changed or gone.

Backfill once, then stay in step

Load your existing rows from MySQL into Azure OpenAI to build the index or enrichment set, then let ongoing changes sync automatically instead of re-running the whole job.

One record, one identifier

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

What you can sync between Azure OpenAI and MySQL

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 MySQL objects How this pairing syncs
Batch jobs Asynchronous bulk-inference jobs; status and output-file IDs are polled to completion to drive downstream pipeline triggers. Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. Batch jobs is specific to Azure OpenAI and Stored Procedures to MySQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Usage and quota Per-deployment TPM/RPM consumption and remaining quota, read from usage endpoints and Azure Monitor for cost and throttling reporting. Triggers An alternative change-capture mechanism when binlog access is unavailable. Usage and quota is specific to Azure OpenAI and Triggers to MySQL — 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 (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. Assistants is specific to Azure OpenAI and Databases (Schemas) to MySQL — 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. Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Vector stores is specific to Azure OpenAI and Tables to MySQL — 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. Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Deployments is specific to Azure OpenAI and Views to MySQL — 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. Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. Models is specific to Azure OpenAI and Columns to MySQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure OpenAI and MySQL

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

MySQL Azure OpenAI Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in MySQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing (requires log_bin_trust_function_creators=ON when.

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 MySQL 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.
  • MySQL: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources.
