Why teams connect Ldap and Tinybird

Close the gap between analytics and operations: Tinybird holds the record while Ldap runs the day-to-day work, and Stacksync keeps the two in step in real time, in both directions.

Tinybird is the central store where teams keep API Endpoints, Materialized Views, Workspaces, Tokens for reporting and analysis; Ldap runs the operational side of engineering work — tracking issues, moving messages and events, watching systems, and managing users and access. The two overlap wherever the same operational data matters to both: the Attributes, Operational attributes, Schema (subschema subentry), Entries produced in Ldap are exactly what analysts want to measure in Tinybird, and the curated rows in Tinybird are what should drive the next action in Ldap. When that overlap is bridged by nightly ETL or hand-written scripts, dashboards lag a day behind reality and the tools that should react to warehouse signals never see them.

Stacksync syncs API Endpoints, Materialized Views, Workspaces, Tokens in Tinybird with Attributes, Operational attributes, Schema (subschema subentry), Entries in Ldap field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync matches records on a stable external key, keeps every copy consistent, and resolves conflicts by rules you set — so analytics and operations work from the same current data instead of two drifting copies.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync order events from an ERP into Tinybird to serve low-latency operational analytics endpoints.
  • 02 Compute aggregates in Tinybird and write the results back to CRM fields for scoring and routing.
  • 03 Read person, group, and organizationalUnit entries into a warehouse for periodic access reviews and audit evidence without LDIF exports.
  • 04 Connect a niche or legacy directory server that has no dedicated Stacksync connector but speaks LDAPv3, syncing it over a bind DN and TLS.

Common sync patterns

No batch jobs to babysit

New and changed records move field by field the moment they change, replacing scheduled ETL and one-off scripts that fail quietly and leave stale rows behind.

One shared record, kept consistent

Where both systems track the same entity, a change on either side propagates to the other, ending the manual reconciliation between the operational copy and the warehouse copy.

Keep user and access records aligned

Where Ldap manages users, directory, or access data, those records stay current in Tinybird — and can be provisioned back from it — so ownership and permissions match across both.

What you can sync between Ldap 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.

Ldap objects Tinybird objects How this pairing syncs
Groups (groupOfNames / posixGroup) Group entries whose member or uniqueMember attributes list DNs; synced two-way to add and remove membership as teams and entitlements change. API Endpoints Published Pipe outputs exposed as parameterized HTTP queries; the main read surface. Groups (groupOfNames / posixGroup) is specific to Ldap and API Endpoints to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizational units (ou) Container entries that structure the DIT and scope which subtree a sync reads or writes; used to limit a sync to a branch such as ou=People,dc=corp,dc=com. Materialized Views Pipes materialized into new Data Sources for pre-aggregation at ingest time. Organizational units (ou) is specific to Ldap and Materialized Views to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Attributes The typed name/value pairs on each entry (cn, mail, memberOf, objectClass); the schema defines which attributes each objectClass allows, and mappings are built per attribute. Workspaces Project boundary that scopes Data Sources, Pipes, and tokens for a sync. Attributes is specific to Ldap and Workspaces to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Operational attributes Server-maintained metadata such as modifyTimestamp, createTimestamp, entryUUID, entryCSN, and uSNChanged; read to drive incremental polling and to key entries stably across syncs. Tokens Scoped credentials that control read and append rights per resource. Operational attributes is specific to Ldap and Tokens to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schema (subschema subentry) The objectClass and attribute-type definitions the server exposes; read to validate that written attributes exist and are single- or multi-valued as expected. Data Sources ClickHouse-backed tables that receive ingested rows; the write target for syncs into Tinybird. Schema (subschema subentry) is specific to Ldap and Data Sources to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Entries The fundamental unit of an LDAP directory, each addressed by a distinguished name (DN) and typed by its objectClass; synced two-way as records, with the DN driving upserts and attribute-level updates. Pipes Chained SQL nodes that transform Data Sources into query-ready results. Entries is specific to Ldap and Pipes to Tinybird — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Ldap 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.

Ldap Tinybird Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Ldap for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No universal native change feed.

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

Tinybird Ldap 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 written to Ldap through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Ldap: LDAP defines no request quota; throughput is bounded by the server's sizelimit and timelimit administrative limits, connection and thread caps, and the CPU/IO it shares with live authentication traffic, so large syncs can contend with production lookups and must page results.
  • Tinybird: Subject to the platform's ingestion and query rate limits; batch appends where possible.

How the Ldap and Tinybird connectors work

Ldap

Integration surface
LDAPv3 protocol (RFC 4511) over TCP, typically LDAPS on port 636 or StartTLS on 389; reaches any LDAPv3 directory server - OpenLDAP, Microsoft Active Directory, 389 Directory Server, Oracle Unified Directory, PingDS/ForgeRock, NetIQ eDirectory, Apache Directory.
Authentication
A bind DN and password (simple bind), typically over TLS, using a service account with rights to the target subtree. SASL mechanisms - GSSAPI/Kerberos, DIGEST-MD5, or EXTERNAL with a client certificate - are available where the server supports them.
Change detection
No universal native change feed. Incremental sync polls the modifyTimestamp operational attribute (or entryCSN / uSNChanged on servers that expose them) for entries changed since the last cursor; detecting deletes needs a server changelog or tombstones because a plain search cannot see removed entries. Some servers add Persistent Search or RFC 4533 content-sync (syncrepl), but that support is server-specific. No webhooks.
