Why teams connect CockroachDB and Elasticsearch
Keep CockroachDB and Elasticsearch synchronized in real time, across engines, regions, or services, in one or both directions.
Two databases that must agree is one of the oldest problems in engineering: different engines for different workloads, separate services with overlapping reference data, a migration in flight, or regional instances that share a subset of records. Hand-rolled replication across systems means change capture, conflict handling, and type mapping, all built and maintained by your team.
Stacksync syncs tables or collections between CockroachDB and Elasticsearch continuously and bi-directionally, translating types between the two engines and resolving conflicts by rules you configure. Rows written on either side appear on the other within seconds.
Common use cases
- 01 Write application events from CockroachDB back to CRM fields to give go-to-market teams product context.
- 02 Use changefeeds to propagate row changes from a multi-region cluster into a warehouse or search index.
- 03 Sync CRM accounts and contacts into an Elasticsearch index to power internal search across customer records.
- 04 Push product catalog data from an ERP or commerce database into Elasticsearch for storefront search.
Common sync patterns
Shared reference data between services
Services that own separate databases stay consistent on the records they share, without a custom replication layer.
Regional or environment copies
Mirror selected tables to another region or environment continuously, filtered to just the rows that should travel.
Cross-engine sync
Keep the same dataset live in both CockroachDB and Elasticsearch, so each workload runs on the engine that suits it.
What you can sync between CockroachDB and Elasticsearch
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.
| CockroachDB objects | Elasticsearch objects | How this pairing syncs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Indexes Secondary indexes that keep sync lookup queries fast on key columns. | Ingest pipelines Server-side transforms applied to documents as a sync writes them. | Indexes is specific to CockroachDB and Ingest pipelines to Elasticsearch — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Sequences ID generators that matter when writes originate from an external system. | Index templates Reusable settings and mappings applied automatically to new indices a sync creates. | Sequences is specific to CockroachDB and Index templates to Elasticsearch — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Changefeeds Built-in CDC streams that emit row-level changes to external sinks. | Indices Target containers for synced records; each holds a table-like collection of JSON documents. | Changefeeds is specific to CockroachDB and Indices to Elasticsearch — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Databases Logical containers a sync connects to, addressed like PostgreSQL databases. | Documents The unit of sync; JSON records created, updated, and deleted by _id. | Databases is specific to CockroachDB and Documents to Elasticsearch — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables from application tables. | Index mappings Field type definitions that determine how synced fields are indexed and queried. | Schemas is specific to CockroachDB and Index mappings to Elasticsearch — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. | |
| Tables The core read/write target; rows sync bi-directionally with SaaS objects or other databases. | Aliases Stable read/write names that let a sync cut over between index versions without downtime. | Tables is specific to CockroachDB and Aliases to Elasticsearch — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side. |
How changes propagate between CockroachDB and Elasticsearch
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.
CockroachDB Elasticsearch Sub-second propagation
DetectionChanges in CockroachDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. CDC via changefeeds, which stream row-level changes.
DeliveryEach detected change is written to Elasticsearch through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
Elasticsearch CockroachDB Interval-based propagation
DetectionStacksync polls Elasticsearch for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on timestamp or sequence fields.
DeliveryEach detected change is applied to CockroachDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.
Rate-limit considerations
- CockroachDB: No API rate limits in the SaaS sense; throughput is bounded by cluster capacity.
- Elasticsearch: No fixed request quota; throughput is bounded by cluster sizing, thread pools, and bulk queue capacity.

FAQ
CockroachDB and Elasticsearch integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between CockroachDB and Elasticsearch: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as CockroachDB's Indexes and Sequences), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
CockroachDB: SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL-compatible). Authentication: Database credentials with TLS; client certificates or SCRAM password auth. Elasticsearch: REST API (JSON over HTTP). Authentication: API keys or basic authentication; Elastic Cloud also issues service account tokens. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
CockroachDB: Multi-region clusters let operators pin table data to specific regions while keeping a single logical database. Elasticsearch: Optimistic concurrency uses _seq_no and _primary_term instead of row locks, which matters when two writers touch the same document. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between CockroachDB and Elasticsearch without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means CockroachDB and Elasticsearch records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed CockroachDB and Elasticsearch connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom CockroachDB–Elasticsearch integration in-house.
-
Yes — Stacksync ships production-grade connectors for both CockroachDB and Elasticsearch. The connectors handle authentication, schema detection, rate limits, and retries; you configure the sync, and Stacksync operates it.
