Why teams connect Databricks and Tinybird

Keep tables consistent across Databricks and Tinybird, for a migration, a multi-warehouse stack, or a dataset two platforms both need.

Companies end up with two warehouses for practical reasons: a migration in progress, teams that standardized on different platforms, an acquisition, or tools that only connect to one of them. The result is the same dataset maintained twice, with duplicated pipelines and numbers that almost match.

Stacksync syncs tables between Databricks and Tinybird continuously, in either or both directions. Rows changed on one platform appear on the other within seconds, with schema and type mapping handled, so both warehouses answer questions with the same data.

Common use cases

  • 01 Land CRM and ERP records in Delta tables continuously so lakehouse models work from current operational data.
  • 02 Use Change Data Feed to propagate only changed rows to downstream apps instead of full-table scans.
  • 03 Sync order events from an ERP into Tinybird to serve low-latency operational analytics endpoints.
  • 04 Compute aggregates in Tinybird and write the results back to CRM fields for scoring and routing.

Common sync patterns

Migration without a big bang

When one platform is replacing the other, keep tables mirrored while workloads move over gradually, and cut over with nothing to backfill.

Serve tools that only connect to one platform

Mirror the datasets a BI tool, notebook, or application needs onto the platform it can actually reach.

Shared datasets across teams

Where different teams run different warehouses, sync the curated tables both rely on so their metrics agree by construction.

What you can sync between Databricks and Tinybird

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.

Databricks objects Tinybird objects How this pairing syncs
Materialized Views Precomputed results read on a schedule for reverse-ETL style syncs. Materialized Views Pipes materialized into new Data Sources for pre-aggregation at ingest time. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Change Data Feed Row-level change records on Delta tables that drive incremental reads. Pipes Chained SQL nodes that transform Data Sources into query-ready results. Change Data Feed is specific to Databricks and Pipes to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Catalogs Top level of the Unity Catalog namespace, scoping which schemas a sync can address. API Endpoints Published Pipe outputs exposed as parameterized HTTP queries; the main read surface. Catalogs is specific to Databricks and API Endpoints to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas Group tables and views; syncs typically target a dedicated schema per source system. Workspaces Project boundary that scopes Data Sources, Pipes, and tokens for a sync. Schemas is specific to Databricks and Workspaces to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Delta Tables The primary read and write target; operational data lands here as managed or external tables. Tokens Scoped credentials that control read and append rights per resource. Delta Tables is specific to Databricks and Tokens to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Curated read-only projections used as sync sources for downstream tools. Data Sources ClickHouse-backed tables that receive ingested rows; the write target for syncs into Tinybird. Views is specific to Databricks and Data Sources to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Databricks and Tinybird

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.

Databricks Tinybird Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Databricks are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Delta Lake Change Data Feed for row-level changes.

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

Tinybird Databricks Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Tinybird for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Append-oriented ingestion.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Databricks: Throughput depends on the SQL warehouse size; API calls are subject to workspace rate limits.
  • Tinybird: Subject to the platform's ingestion and query rate limits; batch appends where possible.
