Why teams connect Cloudera Data Platform and OpenSearch

Connect OpenSearch and Cloudera Data Platform with one live, two-way sync: operational rows flow into the warehouse, and computed results flow back where systems can read them fast.

Operational databases and analytical warehouses want the same data at different moments. Analysts want OpenSearch's rows in Cloudera Data Platform, current and joinable, without a change-data-capture pipeline to maintain. Engineers want the outputs of warehouse work, such as aggregates, features, and segments, available in OpenSearch where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in OpenSearch sync into Cloudera Data Platform in real time, and result tables in Cloudera Data Platform sync back into OpenSearch, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Publish CRM or ERP records into CDP so enterprise analytics runs alongside existing data lake workloads.
  • Consolidate tables from on-prem and cloud CDP environments into a single cloud warehouse target.
  • Sync product catalogs from an ERP or database into the indexes that back storefront search.
  • Keep Postgres as the source of truth while mirroring rows to OpenSearch for full-text and vector queries.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from OpenSearch land in Cloudera Data Platform as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Cloudera Data Platform sync into OpenSearch, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

Fresh analytics without loading windows

Because changes stream continuously, analysts query current data instead of waiting for last night's load.

What you can sync between Cloudera Data Platform and OpenSearch

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.

Cloudera Data Platform objects OpenSearch objects
Impala tables The same metastore tables served through Impala for lower-latency SQL reads. Index aliases Stable names over rotating indexes, used for zero-downtime reindex during backfills
Kudu tables Storage engine tables that support row-level inserts, updates, and deletes. Index templates Mapping and settings presets applied to new indexes a sync creates
Iceberg tables Open table format tables in newer CDP versions, with snapshot metadata usable for incremental reads. Ingest pipelines Server-side processors that transform documents as they are written
Views SQL views that can present curated, sync-ready projections of raw lake data. Data streams Append-oriented time-series storage for logs and events pushed from source systems
Partitions Table partitions (often by date) that incremental extraction jobs use to scope reads. Snapshots Backup artifacts, relevant when reseeding an index from a repository
Object store / HDFS files Underlying Parquet or ORC files on HDFS or cloud storage backing the tables. Indexes The core container; synced records land in indexes with defined mappings

How the Cloudera Data Platform and OpenSearch connectors work

Cloudera Data Platform

Integration surface
JDBC/ODBC over Hive and Impala SQL endpoints, plus REST management APIs
Authentication
Kerberos, LDAP, or workload user credentials, often brokered through the Knox gateway
Change detection
Polling via SQL on timestamp or partition columns; no consumer-facing change feed
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Constrained by cluster capacity and admission control rather than API rate limits

OpenSearch

Integration surface
REST API over HTTP(S) with JSON payloads
Authentication
basic authentication with the security plugin, or AWS IAM request signing on Amazon OpenSearch Service
Change detection
no native change feed; reads rely on queries with scroll or point-in-time polling
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
throughput bounded by cluster sizing rather than fixed API quotas
