Why teams connect Azure SQL Database and Egnyte

Keep Azure SQL Database and Egnyte in step: a row in Azure SQL Database for every file in Egnyte, with names, paths, metadata, and status staying consistent in real time, in both directions.

A database holds structured records; a storage system holds the files those records depend on, such as contracts, images, exports, uploads, and documents. The two describe the same things from opposite sides: a row in Azure SQL Database says a file exists and carries its name, location, and status, while Egnyte holds the bytes. Linked only by a hand-kept path or a one-off script, the two drift the moment a file is renamed, moved, or deleted and the record still points at where it used to be.

Stacksync syncs Schemas, Rows and columns, Stored procedures, Change tracking / CDC tables in Azure SQL Database with Permissions, Links, Metadata, Events and Audit reports in Egnyte bi-directionally and in real time. File attributes, including name, path or object key, size, type, modified time, owner, and tags or custom properties, map field by field to columns on the matching row, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds. New files appear as rows, metadata edits travel in the direction you choose, and deletes stay consistent, with conflict rules you set in place of nightly reconciliation scripts.

Common use cases

  • 01 Replicate Azure SQL tables to a warehouse without building custom CDC pipelines.
  • 02 Consolidate data from several line-of-business apps into one Azure SQL database as an integration hub.
  • 03 Write custom Metadata such as classification tags and project fields onto Files and Folders from a governance or DMS system, and read it back for reporting.
  • 04 Mirror folder Permissions from a directory or access-management system so entitlements stay consistent across teams.

Common sync patterns

Continuous archival to file storage

Rows from Azure SQL Database are written out to Egnyte as files on a schedule or as they change, giving a durable, low-cost copy for backup, compliance, or a data lake, without a custom export job to maintain.

A queryable index of the file store

Every file or object in Egnyte shows up as a row in Azure SQL Database, with its name, folder or key, size, type, and modified date as columns, so the contents of the store can be listed, filtered, and joined like any other table.

File metadata kept in step

Tags, custom properties, owner, or status columns edited on a row in Azure SQL Database write back to the matching file's metadata in Egnyte, and metadata changed in Egnyte updates the row, so the two never disagree about a file.

What you can sync between Azure SQL Database and Egnyte

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 SQL Database objects Egnyte objects How this pairing syncs
Change tracking / CDC tables System-maintained change records used to drive incremental sync. Groups Groups and membership managed via the Groups API; kept aligned with directory or IdP groups that drive folder access. Change tracking / CDC tables is specific to Azure SQL Database and Groups to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map one-to-one to records in the paired system. Permissions Folder permissions listed, set, and removed via the Permissions API; effective permission for a user/folder is computable. Tables is specific to Azure SQL Database and Permissions to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used when the sync should expose a curated shape rather than raw tables. Links Shared file and folder links created, listed, and revoked via the Links API; useful for governing and auditing external sharing. Views is specific to Azure SQL Database and Links to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces that organize tables and control which objects a sync user can reach. Metadata Custom metadata keys and project fields on files/folders via the Metadata API; written for classification and read back for reporting. Schemas is specific to Azure SQL Database and Metadata to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows and columns Standard relational records with typed columns; primary keys anchor upserts. Events and Audit reports File, login, permission, and sharing activity read via the Events API and Audit Reporting API; consumed read-only for compliance. Rows and columns is specific to Azure SQL Database and Events and Audit reports to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored procedures Existing business logic that some teams invoke on write instead of direct table inserts. Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. Stored procedures is specific to Azure SQL Database and Files to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure SQL Database and Egnyte

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 SQL Database Egnyte Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Azure SQL Database are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Change data capture or change tracking, both supported on Azure SQL Database.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Egnyte through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Egnyte Azure SQL Database Sub-second propagation

DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
