Why teams connect Couchbase and Materialize

Connect Couchbase and Materialize 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 Couchbase's rows in Materialize, 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 Couchbase where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

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

Common use cases

  • Drive alerting and operational tooling from SUBSCRIBE change streams instead of scheduled queries.
  • Maintain real-time inventory, usage, or account-health counters consumed by customer-facing applications.
  • Consolidate documents from multiple Couchbase clusters into a single analytical store.
  • Write cleaned or enriched records from operational databases back into Couchbase collections that applications read.

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Materialize and keep Couchbase focused on its operational workload.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from Couchbase land in Materialize as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Materialize sync into Couchbase, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

What you can sync between Couchbase and Materialize

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 Materialize objects
Buckets Top-level data containers, roughly analogous to a database, that scope replication and memory quotas. Connections & Secrets Stored credentials and endpoints used by sources and sinks.
Scopes Namespaces inside a bucket used to group collections, similar to schemas. Schemas & Databases Namespaces that organize objects a sync targets.
Collections Table-like groupings of documents that syncs typically map one-to-one to destination tables. Tables User-managed tables that accept INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE from sync pipelines.
JSON Documents The core records; schemaless JSON keyed by document id, flattened or mapped to relational rows in syncs. Sources Ingestion points (Kafka, Postgres CDC, MySQL CDC, webhook) that feed external data into Materialize.
Global Secondary Indexes Indexes that make SQL++ query-based extraction efficient. Materialized Views Incrementally maintained query results that syncs read as continuously up-to-date datasets.
XDCR replications Cluster-to-cluster replication streams, useful context when choosing a sync source cluster. Sinks Outbound connections that emit view changes to Kafka topics.

How the Couchbase and Materialize connectors work

Couchbase

Integration surface
SQL++ (N1QL) query service, key-value SDK APIs, and REST management APIs
Authentication
Database credentials with role-based access control, typically over TLS
Change detection
Database Change Protocol (DCP) streams document mutations; SQL++ polling on document fields as an alternative
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Throughput is bounded by cluster sizing rather than API rate limits

Materialize

Integration surface
PostgreSQL wire protocol (SQL)
Authentication
Database credentials (username/password; app passwords in the managed cloud service)
Change detection
SUBSCRIBE queries stream row-level changes of any view or table to the client
Capabilities
