Why teams connect Azure Synapse Analytics and Google Pubsub

Close the gap between analytics and operations: Azure Synapse Analytics holds the record while Google Pubsub runs the day-to-day work, and Stacksync keeps the two in step in real time, in both directions.

Azure Synapse Analytics is the central store where teams keep SQL pools, Tables (dedicated SQL pool), External tables, Views for reporting and analysis; Google Pubsub runs the operational side of engineering work — tracking issues, moving messages and events, watching systems, and managing users and access. The two overlap wherever the same operational data matters to both: the Ordering keys, Topics, Subscriptions, Messages produced in Google Pubsub are exactly what analysts want to measure in Azure Synapse Analytics, and the curated rows in Azure Synapse Analytics are what should drive the next action in Google Pubsub. When that overlap is bridged by nightly ETL or hand-written scripts, dashboards lag a day behind reality and the tools that should react to warehouse signals never see them.

Stacksync syncs SQL pools, Tables (dedicated SQL pool), External tables, Views in Azure Synapse Analytics with Ordering keys, Topics, Subscriptions, Messages in Google Pubsub field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync matches records on a stable external key, keeps every copy consistent, and resolves conflicts by rules you set — so analytics and operations work from the same current data instead of two drifting copies.

Common use cases

  • 01 Load CRM and ERP records into Synapse dedicated SQL pool tables for enterprise reporting.
  • 02 Publish warehouse aggregates (account health scores, LTV) from Synapse back into operational tools like a CRM.
  • 03 Consume messages from a subscription via StreamingPull and write them into a Postgres or warehouse table for durable, SQL-queryable storage.
  • 04 Fan out CRM record changes to a topic and let billing, analytics, and notification subscriptions each react without coupling to the source.

Common sync patterns

Keep user and access records aligned

Where Google Pubsub manages users, directory, or access data, those records stay current in Azure Synapse Analytics — and can be provisioned back from it — so ownership and permissions match across both.

Operational data lands in Azure Synapse Analytics for analytics

Records created in Google Pubsub — issues, events, messages, metrics, or user changes — replicate into Azure Synapse Analytics tables as they happen, so reporting runs on current data instead of last night's export.

Warehouse signals reach Google Pubsub

A row scored, flagged, or enriched in Azure Synapse Analytics creates or updates the matching record in Google Pubsub, so the operational tool acts on the same data the analysts already see.

What you can sync between Azure Synapse Analytics and Google Pubsub

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 Synapse Analytics objects Google Pubsub objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces that separate staging, integration, and presentation layers. Schemas Avro or Protocol Buffer definitions bound to a topic; validate that every published message matches the agreed structure. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Tables (dedicated SQL pool) Distributed warehouse tables that serve as sync destinations for analytics workloads. Dead-letter topics Destination for messages that exceed a subscription's max delivery attempts; isolates poison messages for later handling. Tables (dedicated SQL pool) is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Dead-letter topics to Google Pubsub — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External tables Tables over files in the data lake, queried through serverless SQL and often read-only in syncs. Ordering keys Tag messages so those sharing a key deliver in publish order when message ordering is enabled; throughput capped at 1 MBps per key. External tables is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Ordering keys to Google Pubsub — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Curated projections used when downstream tools should not read base tables directly. Topics Named resource publishers send to; Stacksync publishes each record change as a message to a topic for downstream subscribers to consume. Views is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Topics to Google Pubsub — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized views Precomputed aggregates that speed reads of frequently synced result sets. Subscriptions A stream of messages from one topic; Stacksync consumes here via StreamingPull or a push endpoint, acknowledging each message after a successful write. Materialized views is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Subscriptions to Google Pubsub — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
SQL pools Dedicated or serverless compute contexts that determine how and where queries run. Messages The synced unit: base64-encoded data plus attributes, ordering key, messageId and publishTime; capped at 10 MB each. SQL pools is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Messages to Google Pubsub — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Synapse Analytics and Google Pubsub

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 Synapse Analytics Google Pubsub Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Azure Synapse Analytics for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on watermark columns.

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

Google Pubsub Azure Synapse Analytics Sub-second propagation

DetectionGoogle Pubsub notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Consumes messages as they arrive on a subscription — StreamingPull (long-lived gRPC) or a push subscription delivering each message as an HTTPS POST.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Pubsub: Per-region throughput quotas (publish up to ~4 GB/s in large regions); 10 MB max per message and per publish request, 1,000 messages per request, and 1 MBps per ordering key.
