Why teams connect Cloudera Data Platform and Sharepoint

Bridge query-ready tables and stored files: Cloudera Data Platform and Sharepoint keep the same records in step, in real time, in both directions.

Cloudera Data Platform keeps the tables and query results a business reports on; Sharepoint keeps the raw files, documents, and objects that the same business produces and shares. The two overlap wherever a dataset lives as both — a file dropped in Sharepoint that has to become rows in Cloudera Data Platform, or a result in Cloudera Data Platform that people downstream need back as a file in Sharepoint. When that overlap is bridged by manual export and import or an overnight job, one side spends the day working from a stale copy.

Stacksync syncs Object store / HDFS files, Databases, Hive tables, Impala tables in Cloudera Data Platform with Lists, List items, Drive items (document libraries), Columns and content types in Sharepoint field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate tables from on-prem and cloud CDP environments into a single cloud warehouse target.
  • 02 Sync curated CDP tables into an operational Postgres so applications query a low-latency copy instead of hitting the cluster.
  • 03 Two-way sync SharePoint List items with a database table so internal apps read and write structured records in SQL without calling the SharePoint API directly.
  • 04 Mirror document-library drive items and their metadata into a store to index files for search and governance, and push generated documents back into the right library.

Common sync patterns

Where Sharepoint is the shared drive: publish results back as files

Curated tables and query results from Cloudera Data Platform are written to Sharepoint as files the rest of the business can open, keeping the shared copy current without a hand-run export.

One dataset, kept consistent both ways

Where the same dataset lives as a file in Sharepoint and a table in Cloudera Data Platform, a change on either side propagates to the other, ending the drift between the file people read and the table people query.

Where Sharepoint holds the file inventory: make it queryable

The catalog of documents, owners, and folders in Sharepoint appears as Object store / HDFS files, Databases, Hive tables, Impala tables in Cloudera Data Platform, so file metadata can be joined against the rest of your data and reported on.

What you can sync between Cloudera Data Platform and Sharepoint

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 Sharepoint objects How this pairing syncs
Kudu tables Storage engine tables that support row-level inserts, updates, and deletes. List items Rows in a SharePoint list via /lists/{id}/items with a fields facet of column values; full create, read, update, and delete, synced two-way with database rows. Kudu tables is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and List items to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Iceberg tables Open table format tables in newer CDP versions, with snapshot metadata usable for incremental reads. Drive items (document libraries) Files and folders in a library's drive via /drives and /drive/root; upload, download, move, delete, and read per-item metadata, synced two-way with a store. Iceberg tables is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and Drive items (document libraries) to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views that can present curated, sync-ready projections of raw lake data. Columns and content types Field definitions and content types on a site or list; read the schema and create columns so database fields map cleanly onto SharePoint list fields. Views is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and Columns and content types to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions Table partitions (often by date) that incremental extraction jobs use to scope reads. Permissions and sharing Role assignments and sharing links on sites, list items, and drive items; read and written to manage access, requiring Sites.Manage.All or Sites.FullControl.All scopes. Partitions is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and Permissions and sharing to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object store / HDFS files Underlying Parquet or ORC files on HDFS or cloud storage backing the tables. Site pages Modern site pages via /sites/{id}/pages; read page content, layout, and metadata for indexing and content governance. Object store / HDFS files is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and Site pages to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical namespaces in the shared Hive Metastore that group tables for access control and syncs. Sites SharePoint site collections and subsites via /sites; read site properties and discover the document libraries (drives) and lists each site contains, addressed by hostname and site path or site ID. Databases is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and Sites to Sharepoint — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Cloudera Data Platform and Sharepoint

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.

Cloudera Data Platform Sharepoint Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Cloudera Data Platform for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via SQL on timestamp or partition columns.

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

Sharepoint Cloudera Data Platform Sub-second propagation

DetectionSharepoint notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Cloudera Data Platform as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Cloudera Data Platform: Constrained by cluster capacity and admission control rather than API rate limits.
  • Sharepoint: SharePoint Online throttles per app, returning HTTP 429 (or 503) with a Retry-After header in seconds and IETF RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, and RateLimit-Reset headers; throttled requests still count toward limits, so clients honor the greater of Retry-After and RateLimit-Reset with exponential backoff.

Sharepoint

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph REST API (graph.microsoft.com/v1.0 and beta) covering SharePoint sites, lists, list items, columns, content types, and document-library drives and drive items; plus the classic SharePoint REST API (_api/web) and CSOM. Supports Graph JSON $batch (up to 20 requests per call).
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform (Microsoft Entra ID). An app registration holds delegated or application (app-only) scopes such as Sites.Read.All, Sites.ReadWrite.All, Sites.Selected, Sites.Manage.All, or Sites.FullControl.All, plus Files.ReadWrite.All for drive content; application permissions require tenant admin consent.
Change detection
Delta query (pull) tracks created, updated, and deleted list items (/lists/{id}/items/delta) and drive items (/drives/{id}/root/delta) since the last deltaLink; change-notification subscriptions (push webhooks) POST near-real-time notifications for list and drive/root changes to a notification URL and must be renewed before they expire. Classic SharePoint list webhooks are also available.

Rate limits
SharePoint Online throttles per app, returning HTTP 429 (or 503) with a Retry-After header in seconds and IETF RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining, and RateLimit-Reset headers; throttled requests still count toward limits, so clients honor the greater of Retry-After and RateLimit-Reset with exponential backoff.
