Why teams connect Google Cloud Spanner and Rockset

Connect Google Cloud Spanner and Rockset 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 Google Cloud Spanner's rows in Rockset, 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 Google Cloud Spanner where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

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

Common use cases

  • Sync Postgres or DynamoDB tables into collections for low-latency aggregations without loading a batch warehouse.
  • Read query results back into an operational database to expose computed metrics to applications.
  • Use change streams to feed near-real-time copies of operational tables into an analytics warehouse.
  • Run a two-way sync between Spanner and a SaaS tool so edits made by ops teams land back in the application database.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Rockset sync into Google Cloud Spanner, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

Fresh analytics without loading windows

Because changes stream continuously, analysts query current data instead of waiting for last night's load.

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Rockset and keep Google Cloud Spanner focused on its operational workload.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Spanner and Rockset

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.

Google Cloud Spanner objects Rockset objects
Tables Relational tables mapped one-to-one to sync targets. Aliases Stable names that point at collections, used to swap datasets without changing queries.
Rows The unit of read and write in each sync cycle, keyed by primary key. Integrations Managed source connections (databases, streams, object storage) feeding collections.
Interleaved tables Child rows physically co-located with parents; synced as related records. Virtual Instances Isolated compute units that separate ingest from query workloads.
Secondary indexes Used to make incremental read queries efficient on non-key columns. Collections Schemaless document containers that ingested and synced records land in.
Change streams Capture inserts, updates, and deletes for log-style change data capture. Documents JSON records addressable by _id, written via the Write API in sync pipelines.
Views Read-only projections useful for shaping data before it leaves Spanner. Workspaces Namespaces that group collections and query lambdas per team or environment.
