Why teams connect Couchbase and Egnyte

Keep Couchbase and Egnyte in step: a row in Couchbase for every file in Egnyte, with names, paths, metadata, and status staying consistent in real time, in both directions.

A database holds structured records; a storage system holds the files those records depend on, such as contracts, images, exports, uploads, and documents. The two describe the same things from opposite sides: a row in Couchbase says a file exists and carries its name, location, and status, while Egnyte holds the bytes. Linked only by a hand-kept path or a one-off script, the two drift the moment a file is renamed, moved, or deleted and the record still points at where it used to be.

Stacksync syncs XDCR replications, Full-text search indexes, Buckets, Scopes in Couchbase with Folders, Users, Groups, Permissions in Egnyte bi-directionally and in real time. File attributes, including name, path or object key, size, type, modified time, owner, and tags or custom properties, map field by field to columns on the matching row, and a change on either side shows up on the other within seconds. New files appear as rows, metadata edits travel in the direction you choose, and deletes stay consistent, with conflict rules you set in place of nightly reconciliation scripts.

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate documents from multiple Couchbase clusters into a single analytical store.
  • 02 Write cleaned or enriched records from operational databases back into Couchbase collections that applications read.
  • 03 Two-way sync of Files and Folders between Egnyte and an operational database or another content store, keeping the folder hierarchy aligned.
  • 04 Write custom Metadata such as classification tags and project fields onto Files and Folders from a governance or DMS system, and read it back for reporting.

Common sync patterns

File metadata kept in step

Tags, custom properties, owner, or status columns edited on a row in Couchbase write back to the matching file's metadata in Egnyte, and metadata changed in Egnyte updates the row, so the two never disagree about a file.

Records that point at documents

Where a record in Couchbase references a file in Egnyte, such as a contract, an image, an export, or an upload, the reference, path, and status stay consistent as files are renamed, moved, or replaced, so stored links keep resolving.

A landing zone for incoming files

Files that arrive in a folder or bucket in Egnyte become rows in Couchbase as they land, so a database-driven process can pick them up without polling the storage system's API.

What you can sync between Couchbase and Egnyte

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.

Couchbase objects Egnyte objects How this pairing syncs
Collections Table-like groupings of documents that syncs typically map one-to-one to destination tables. Metadata Custom metadata keys and project fields on files/folders via the Metadata API; written for classification and read back for reporting. Collections is specific to Couchbase and Metadata to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
JSON Documents The core records; schemaless JSON keyed by document id, flattened or mapped to relational rows in syncs. Events and Audit reports File, login, permission, and sharing activity read via the Events API and Audit Reporting API; consumed read-only for compliance. JSON Documents is specific to Couchbase and Events and Audit reports to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Global Secondary Indexes Indexes that make SQL++ query-based extraction efficient. Files File content managed via the fs-content endpoint (upload/download, chunked for large files); synced two-way with other stores. Global Secondary Indexes is specific to Couchbase and Files to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
XDCR replications Cluster-to-cluster replication streams, useful context when choosing a sync source cluster. Folders Folder hierarchy managed via the fs endpoint (create, move, rename, delete); the tree structure is mirrored during sync. XDCR replications is specific to Couchbase and Folders to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Full-text search indexes Search indexes over documents, relevant when syncing searchable content. Users Accounts managed via the Users API; provisioned, updated, and deactivated in sync with an HRIS or identity provider. Full-text search indexes is specific to Couchbase and Users to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets Top-level data containers, roughly analogous to a database, that scope replication and memory quotas. Groups Groups and membership managed via the Groups API; kept aligned with directory or IdP groups that drive folder access. Buckets is specific to Couchbase and Groups to Egnyte — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Couchbase and Egnyte

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.

Couchbase Egnyte Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Couchbase are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Database Change Protocol (DCP) streams document mutations.

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

Egnyte Couchbase Sub-second propagation

DetectionEgnyte notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Events API polled with an incremental cursor (Egnyte recommends an interval of 5 minutes or more), or Webhooks push notifications for fs, metadata,.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Couchbase: Throughput is bounded by cluster sizing rather than API rate limits.
  • Egnyte: Auto-generated keys default to 2 requests/second and 1,000 requests/day, enforced per access token; monitor X-Accesstoken-Qps-Current/Allotted and X-Accesstoken-Quota-Current headers; higher limits on request.
