Why teams connect Materialize and Newrelic

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

Materialize is the central store where teams keep Materialized Views, Sinks, Indexes, Clusters for reporting and analysis; Newrelic 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 Dashboards, Alert Policies & Conditions, NRQL Query Results, Entities produced in Newrelic are exactly what analysts want to measure in Materialize, and the curated rows in Materialize are what should drive the next action in Newrelic. 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 Materialized Views, Sinks, Indexes, Clusters in Materialize with Dashboards, Alert Policies & Conditions, NRQL Query Results, Entities in Newrelic 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 Drive alerting and operational tooling from SUBSCRIBE change streams instead of scheduled queries.
  • 02 Maintain real-time inventory, usage, or account-health counters consumed by customer-facing applications.
  • 03 Sync the Entity catalog into a CMDB or warehouse for asset inventory, and add or replace entity Tags to keep ownership and environment metadata current.
  • 04 Provision Synthetics Monitors from a service catalog and read their results via NRQL for availability and latency reporting in SQL.

Common sync patterns

Backfill history, then stay live

Load the existing set of Dashboards, Alert Policies & Conditions, NRQL Query Results, Entities into Materialize once, then keep it current with every change — you get full history plus real-time updates without a separate pipeline.

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.

What you can sync between Materialize and Newrelic

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.

Materialize objects Newrelic objects How this pairing syncs
Indexes In-memory arrangements that make view reads fast for serving workloads. Custom Events Custom events posted write-only to the Event API on insights-collector with a License/Ingest key; business or pipeline events pushed into New Relic to enrich dashboards, then queried back out with NRQL. Indexes is specific to Materialize and Custom Events to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Clusters Compute pools that isolate ingestion, view maintenance, and serving. Change Tracking (Deployments) Deployment and change markers recorded through NerdGraph changeTrackingCreateDeployment; written from CI/CD to annotate charts, and read back via NRQL on the Deployment event for release correlation. Clusters is specific to Materialize and Change Tracking (Deployments) to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Connections & Secrets Stored credentials and endpoints used by sources and sinks. Dashboards Dashboard definitions and widgets via NerdGraph dashboardCreate/dashboardUpdate/dashboardDelete mutations and entity queries, with full CRUD; exported for backup and audit or provisioned and updated programmatically from a source of truth. Connections & Secrets is specific to Materialize and Dashboards to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Schemas & Databases Namespaces that organize objects a sync targets. Alert Policies & Conditions Alert policies and NRQL alert conditions managed through NerdGraph alertsPolicy and alertsNrqlCondition mutations with full create, update, and delete; read out for audit or provisioned from a config source so alerting stays consistent across accounts. Schemas & Databases is specific to Materialize and Alert Policies & Conditions to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables User-managed tables that accept INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE from sync pipelines. NRQL Query Results Telemetry events, metrics, logs, and spans queried through NerdGraph's nrql field (or the legacy Insights query API) over time windows; read-only and bounded by data retention, commonly streamed into a warehouse for long-term analysis. Tables is specific to Materialize and NRQL Query Results to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Sources Ingestion points (Kafka, Postgres CDC, MySQL CDC, webhook) that feed external data into Materialize. Entities The entity catalog of APM applications, hosts, services, and monitors searched via NerdGraph entitySearch; read for inventory, with tags added or replaced through taggingAddTagsToEntity so ownership and environment metadata stay in sync. Sources is specific to Materialize and Entities to Newrelic — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Materialize and Newrelic

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.

Materialize Newrelic Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Materialize are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. SUBSCRIBE queries stream row-level changes of any view or table to the client.

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

Newrelic Materialize Sub-second propagation

DetectionNewrelic notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. NRQL polling over timestamp windows for telemetry (events, metrics, logs, spans).

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Newrelic: NerdGraph allows 25 concurrent requests per user and returns HTTP 429 when exceeded; NRQL run via APIs is capped at 3,000 queries per account per minute with a 5-second default timeout and about 5,000 data points per response. The Event API accepts 1MB per POST and 100,000 POSTs per minute per account.

Authentication
User API key (prefixed NRAK-) sent in the API-Key header for NerdGraph queries and mutations; the data-ingest APIs (Event, Metric, Log) use a License/Ingest key in the Api-Key header. Keys, endpoints, and data are region-scoped (US, EU, JP).
Change detection
NRQL polling over timestamp windows for telemetry (events, metrics, logs, spans); config objects such as dashboards, alert policies, and workloads carry no modified-date and are diffed on each run. Alert workflows can push outbound webhook notifications for near-real-time alerting. No CDC feed.
