Why teams connect CockroachDB and Sysaid

Mirror Sysaid's data into CockroachDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Sysaid through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in CockroachDB.

Stacksync mirrors Custom Fields, Incidents, Service Requests, Problems from Sysaid into Indexes, Sequences, Changefeeds, Databases in CockroachDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Sysaid, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Users, Groups, and Companies from an HRIS or identity provider so requester and agent records, departments, and managers stay current in SysAid.
  • 02 Mirror Assets and Configuration Items with an external CMDB or asset database so inventory and ticket linkage share one source of truth.
  • 03 Write application events from CockroachDB back to CRM fields to give go-to-market teams product context.
  • 04 Use changefeeds to propagate row changes from a multi-region cluster into a warehouse or search index.

Common sync patterns

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Sysaid with a query

Records from Sysaid are ordinary rows in CockroachDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Sysaid from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in CockroachDB and Stacksync propagates the change into Sysaid, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between CockroachDB and Sysaid

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 Sysaid objects How this pairing syncs
Indexes Secondary indexes that keep sync lookup queries fast on key columns. Changes Change records (type=change) with approval and scheduling fields; synced two-way to drive CAB review and deployment workflows. Indexes is specific to CockroachDB and Changes to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sequences ID generators that matter when writes originate from an external system. Users End users and admins on the /users endpoint; synced with an HRIS or identity source to keep requester and agent records current. Sequences is specific to CockroachDB and Users to Sysaid — 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. Assets Hardware and software inventory; read out to a warehouse or written from a discovery or CMDB source of truth. Changefeeds is specific to CockroachDB and Assets to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical containers a sync connects to, addressed like PostgreSQL databases. Configuration Items (CIs) CMDB entries and their relationships; synced with an external CMDB or asset database for one inventory view. Databases is specific to CockroachDB and Configuration Items (CIs) to Sysaid — 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. Companies Customer and department organizations that scope tickets and users; mapped to Accounts in a CRM or org tables in a database. Schemas is specific to CockroachDB and Companies to Sysaid — 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. Custom Fields Org-specific fields on service records, discoverable through the API so mappings can be generated without hardcoding names. Tables is specific to CockroachDB and Custom Fields to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between CockroachDB and Sysaid

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

Sysaid CockroachDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionSysaid notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (beta) push sr.created and sr.updated events with changed-field diffs and an X-Sysaid-Signature.

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.
  • Sysaid: Requests are throttled per the X-RateLimit-Limit / -Remaining / -Reset headers; list calls are paginated with a limit parameter and each org is capped at 100 application keys.

SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL-compatible)
Authentication
Database credentials with TLS; client certificates or SCRAM password auth

Authentication
Client-credentials app keys: an application key (clientId/clientSecret) is created via /v1/application-keys, then exchanged at /v1/access-tokens for a bearer token (default 24h, up to 30 days); an x-sysaid-accountid header scopes the account. Legacy V0 uses session-cookie login.
