Why teams connect Azure Synapse Analytics and Newrelic

Close the gap between analytics and operations: Azure Synapse Analytics holds the record while Newrelic 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 External tables, Views, Schemas, Materialized views for reporting and analysis; Newrelic 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 Custom Events, Change Tracking (Deployments), Dashboards, Alert Policies & Conditions produced in Newrelic 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 Newrelic. 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 External tables, Views, Schemas, Materialized views in Azure Synapse Analytics with Custom Events, Change Tracking (Deployments), Dashboards, Alert Policies & Conditions in Newrelic 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 Consolidate SaaS data alongside lake data so analysts join both through one SQL surface.
  • 02 Load CRM and ERP records into Synapse dedicated SQL pool tables for enterprise reporting.
  • 03 Sync the Entity catalog into a CMDB or warehouse for asset inventory, and add or replace entity Tags to keep ownership and environment metadata current.
  • 04 Provision Synthetics Monitors from a service catalog and read their results via NRQL for availability and latency reporting in SQL.

Common sync patterns

No batch jobs to babysit

New and changed records move field by field the moment they change, replacing scheduled ETL and one-off scripts that fail quietly and leave stale rows behind.

One shared record, kept consistent

Where both systems track the same entity, a change on either side propagates to the other, ending the manual reconciliation between the operational copy and the warehouse copy.

Keep user and access records aligned

Where Newrelic 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.

What you can sync between Azure Synapse Analytics and Newrelic

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 Newrelic objects How this pairing syncs
External tables Tables over files in the data lake, queried through serverless SQL and often read-only in syncs. Custom Events Custom events posted write-only to the Event API on insights-collector with a License/Ingest key; business or pipeline events pushed into New Relic to enrich dashboards, then queried back out with NRQL. External tables is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Custom Events to Newrelic — 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. Change Tracking (Deployments) Deployment and change markers recorded through NerdGraph changeTrackingCreateDeployment; written from CI/CD to annotate charts, and read back via NRQL on the Deployment event for release correlation. Views is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Change Tracking (Deployments) to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Namespaces that separate staging, integration, and presentation layers. Dashboards Dashboard definitions and widgets via NerdGraph dashboardCreate/dashboardUpdate/dashboardDelete mutations and entity queries, with full CRUD; exported for backup and audit or provisioned and updated programmatically from a source of truth. Schemas is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Dashboards to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Materialized views Precomputed aggregates that speed reads of frequently synced result sets. Alert Policies & Conditions Alert policies and NRQL alert conditions managed through NerdGraph alertsPolicy and alertsNrqlCondition mutations with full create, update, and delete; read out for audit or provisioned from a config source so alerting stays consistent across accounts. Materialized views is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Alert Policies & Conditions to Newrelic — 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. NRQL Query Results Telemetry events, metrics, logs, and spans queried through NerdGraph's nrql field (or the legacy Insights query API) over time windows; read-only and bounded by data retention, commonly streamed into a warehouse for long-term analysis. SQL pools is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and NRQL Query Results to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables (dedicated SQL pool) Distributed warehouse tables that serve as sync destinations for analytics workloads. Entities The entity catalog of APM applications, hosts, services, and monitors searched via NerdGraph entitySearch; read for inventory, with tags added or replaced through taggingAddTagsToEntity so ownership and environment metadata stay in sync. Tables (dedicated SQL pool) is specific to Azure Synapse Analytics and Entities to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure Synapse Analytics and Newrelic

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 Newrelic 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 Newrelic through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Newrelic Azure Synapse Analytics Sub-second propagation

DetectionNewrelic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. NRQL polling over timestamp windows for telemetry (events, metrics, logs, spans).

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Newrelic: NerdGraph allows 25 concurrent requests per user and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; NRQL run via APIs is capped at 3,000 queries per account per minute with a 5-second default timeout and about 5,000 data points per response. The Event API accepts 1MB per POST and 100,000 POSTs per minute per account.

How the Azure Synapse Analytics and Newrelic connectors work

Azure Synapse Analytics

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (TDS) with T-SQL for SQL pools; additional Spark and pipeline surfaces exist but syncs use the SQL endpoint
Authentication
SQL authentication or Microsoft Entra ID
Change detection
Polling on watermark columns; Synapse SQL pools do not expose log-based CDC for downstream consumers

Newrelic

Integration surface
NerdGraph (GraphQL) plus REST data-ingest APIs (Event, Metric, Log, Trace) and the legacy REST API v2
Authentication
User API key (prefixed NRAK-) sent in the API-Key header for NerdGraph queries and mutations; the data-ingest APIs (Event, Metric, Log) use a License/Ingest key in the Api-Key header. Keys, endpoints, and data are region-scoped (US, EU, JP).
Change detection
NRQL polling over timestamp windows for telemetry (events, metrics, logs, spans); config objects such as dashboards, alert policies, and workloads carry no modified-date and are diffed on each run. Alert workflows can push outbound webhook notifications for near-real-time alerting. No CDC feed.
