Why teams connect Google Cloud SQL and Materialize

Connect Google Cloud SQL 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 Google Cloud SQL'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 Google Cloud SQL 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 SQL sync into Materialize in real time, and result tables in Materialize sync back into Google Cloud SQL, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Read computed view results back into a CRM or application database as derived fields.
  • Drive alerting and operational tooling from SUBSCRIBE change streams instead of scheduled queries.
  • Migrate from a self-managed database by syncing Cloud SQL and the legacy system during cutover.
  • Keep an internal admin application backed by Cloud SQL consistent with an ERP or billing system.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from Google Cloud SQL 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 Google Cloud SQL, 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.

What you can sync between Google Cloud SQL 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.

Google Cloud SQL objects Materialize objects
Transaction logs MySQL binlog or PostgreSQL WAL, the source for log-based change capture. Sinks Outbound connections that emit view changes to Kafka topics.
Instances The managed MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server server a sync connects to. Indexes In-memory arrangements that make view reads fast for serving workloads.
Databases Scope the tables included in a sync configuration. Clusters Compute pools that isolate ingestion, view maintenance, and serving.
Schemas Namespace tables in PostgreSQL and SQL Server instances. Connections & Secrets Stored credentials and endpoints used by sources and sinks.
Tables Mapped directly to sync targets; schema changes can be propagated. Schemas & Databases Namespaces that organize objects a sync targets.
Rows Read and written by primary key during each sync cycle. Tables User-managed tables that accept INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE from sync pipelines.
