Why teams connect Google Cloud Spanner and Sysaid

Mirror Sysaid's data into Google Cloud Spanner so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Sysaid through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in Google Cloud Spanner.

Stacksync mirrors Custom Fields, Incidents, Service Requests, Problems from Sysaid into Rows, Interleaved tables, Secondary indexes, Change streams in Google Cloud Spanner and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Sysaid, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Stream Service Records into a warehouse for SLA, backlog, and MTTR reporting without manual CSV exports.
  • 02 Two-way sync Incidents and Service Requests with a Postgres database so on-call and internal apps read and update tickets in SQL while agents keep working in SysAid.
  • 03 Run a two-way sync between Spanner and a SaaS tool so edits made by ops teams land back in the application database.
  • 04 Consolidate data from a globally distributed Spanner deployment into regional business systems.

Common sync patterns

Read Sysaid with a query

Records from Sysaid are ordinary rows in Google Cloud Spanner; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Sysaid from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in Google Cloud Spanner and Stacksync propagates the change into Sysaid, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in Sysaid arrive as row changes in Google Cloud Spanner, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Spanner and Sysaid

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 Sysaid objects How this pairing syncs
Secondary indexes Used to make incremental read queries efficient on non-key columns. Users End users and admins on the /users endpoint; synced with an HRIS or identity source to keep requester and agent records current. Secondary indexes is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Users to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Change streams Capture inserts, updates, and deletes for log-style change data capture. Assets Hardware and software inventory; read out to a warehouse or written from a discovery or CMDB source of truth. Change streams is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Assets to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections useful for shaping data before it leaves Spanner. Configuration Items (CIs) CMDB entries and their relationships; synced with an external CMDB or asset database for one inventory view. Views is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Configuration Items (CIs) to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Top-level containers that scope schema and sync configuration. Companies Customer and department organizations that scope tickets and users; mapped to Accounts in a CRM or org tables in a database. Databases is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Companies to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Relational tables mapped one-to-one to sync targets. Custom Fields Org-specific fields on service records, discoverable through the API so mappings can be generated without hardcoding names. Tables is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Custom Fields to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows The unit of read and write in each sync cycle, keyed by primary key. Incidents Break/fix tickets under /api/v1/sr with type=incident; created and updated two-way with status, priority, assignee, category, and SLA fields. Rows is specific to Google Cloud Spanner and Incidents to Sysaid — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Google Cloud Spanner and Sysaid

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.

Google Cloud Spanner Sysaid Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Google Cloud Spanner are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Change streams (log-style CDC), or timestamp-based polling queries.

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

Sysaid Google Cloud Spanner Sub-second propagation

DetectionSysaid notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks (beta) push sr.created and sr.updated events with changed-field diffs and an X-Sysaid-Signature.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Google Cloud Spanner: Throughput is bounded by the instance's provisioned compute capacity rather than a fixed API quota.
  • Sysaid: Requests are throttled per the X-RateLimit-Limit / -Remaining / -Reset headers; list calls are paginated with a limit parameter and each org is capped at 100 application keys.
