Why teams connect Datadog and Oracle DB

Keep Oracle DB and Datadog in step: the rows in your database and the Logs, Events, Dashboards, Metrics your engineering tools track stay consistent in real time, in both directions.

Oracle DB is where your application's durable data lives; Datadog is where engineering and operations teams track the issues, events, messages, or identities that run alongside it. The two overlap constantly, a row should open a ticket, an alert should land as a record, a user in one should exist in the other, but bridging them today means per-tool integration code: auth, webhooks, pagination, rate limits, and retries, built and maintained separately for every tool.

Stacksync syncs JSON columns, Tables, Views, Materialized views in Oracle DB with Logs, Events, Dashboards, Metrics in Datadog field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set, so the database and the tooling around it never drift apart.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write changes from SaaS apps back into Oracle so PL/SQL jobs and reports run on current data.
  • 02 Log-based replication of order and inventory tables into an analytics warehouse instead of nightly batch dumps.
  • 03 Sync Monitors and their alert state into Postgres so reliability teams query alert history and noisy-monitor trends in SQL.
  • 04 Provision and update Datadog Monitors from a config database or Git so alert definitions stay consistent across teams and environments.

Common sync patterns

React to changes on either side in near real time

Updates in Datadog arrive as row changes in Oracle DB, and writes to Oracle DB propagate to Datadog within seconds, so triggers, jobs, and alerts fire without polling.

Where Datadog manages users or groups: keep identity aligned

Directory and identity records in Datadog stay matched to the users or owners table in Oracle DB, so provisioning and de-provisioning flow from one source.

Turn rows into the records your tools track

A new or changed row in Oracle DB creates or updates the matching record in Datadog, whether that is an issue, an event, a message, or a user, so the tool reflects the database without a custom API job.

What you can sync between Datadog and Oracle DB

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.

Datadog objects Oracle DB objects How this pairing syncs
Events The event stream (deploys, alerts, comments) searched via the v2 Events endpoint and posted via POST /api/v1/events; used to correlate deploy and incident timelines or to publish deploy and pipeline events into Datadog. Views Curated read-only projections exposed to downstream consumers Events is specific to Datadog and Views to Oracle DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Dashboards Dashboard definitions and widgets via the v1 Dashboards API with full CRUD; exported for backup and audit, or created and updated programmatically from a source of truth. Materialized views Precomputed results occasionally used as stable replication sources Dashboards is specific to Datadog and Materialized views to Oracle DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Metrics Time-series metrics queried in aggregate windows through the query API and submitted via POST /api/v1/series; individual raw points cannot be extracted beyond retention. Schemas Per-user namespaces that scope sync permissions and object visibility Metrics is specific to Datadog and Schemas to Oracle DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Incidents Incident records from the v2 Incidents API with full CRUD, including status and timeline fields; landed in a database for MTTR reporting or created and updated from an external incident workflow. Sequences Key generators to respect when external systems insert rows Incidents is specific to Datadog and Sequences to Oracle DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Service Level Objectives SLO definitions and status history via the v1 SLO API with full CRUD; read out for reliability and error-budget reporting, or provisioned and updated from a reliability config. PL/SQL procedures and packages In-database logic that can consume or transform synced data Service Level Objectives is specific to Datadog and PL/SQL procedures and packages to Oracle DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Hosts Infrastructure host inventory with tags and metadata from the v1 host list API; loaded into a CMDB or warehouse for asset tracking, and hosts can be muted or unmuted via the API. Partitions Physical subdivisions relevant when replicating high-volume tables Hosts is specific to Datadog and Partitions to Oracle DB — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Datadog and Oracle DB

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.

Datadog Oracle DB Sub-second propagation

DetectionDatadog notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling with time-windowed search queries on Logs and Events (timestamp cursor).

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

Oracle DB Datadog Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Oracle DB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC from redo logs via LogMiner or GoldenGate, or trigger and timestamp polling.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Datadog: Per-endpoint limits return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit/-Remaining/-Period/-Reset headers. Log ingestion and metric submission are not rate limited; search endpoints such as Logs and Events queries carry quotas that Datadog Support can raise.
  • Oracle DB: Throughput bounded by database resources rather than API quotas.

How the Datadog and Oracle DB connectors work

Datadog

Integration surface
REST API (v1 and v2)
Authentication
API key (DD-API-KEY) plus an Application key (DD-APPLICATION-KEY) sent as request headers; application keys are tied to the creating user and inherit that user's permissions and authorization scopes.
Change detection
Polling with time-windowed search queries on Logs and Events (timestamp cursor); monitor alerts can also push via the Webhooks notification integration. No modified-date CDC on mutable objects.
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Per-endpoint limits return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit/-Remaining/-Period/-Reset headers. Log ingestion and metric submission are not rate limited; search endpoints such as Logs and Events queries carry quotas that Datadog Support can raise.

Oracle DB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (Oracle Net) via JDBC, ODBC, and native OCI drivers
Authentication
database username and password; wallets, Kerberos, and directory-based authentication in enterprise setups
Change detection
log-based CDC from redo logs via LogMiner or GoldenGate, or trigger and timestamp polling
Capabilities

Rate limits
throughput bounded by database resources rather than API quotas
