Why teams connect RavenDB and TimescaleDB

Keep RavenDB and TimescaleDB synchronized in real time, across engines, regions, or services, in one or both directions.

Two databases that must agree is one of the oldest problems in engineering: different engines for different workloads, separate services with overlapping reference data, a migration in flight, or regional instances that share a subset of records. Hand-rolled replication across systems means change capture, conflict handling, and type mapping, all built and maintained by your team.

Stacksync syncs tables or collections between RavenDB and TimescaleDB continuously and bi-directionally, translating types between the two engines and resolving conflicts by rules you configure. Rows written on either side appear on the other within seconds.

Common use cases

  • Consolidate documents from distributed RavenDB clusters into one reporting store.
  • Keep external search indexes or caches current from RavenDB change feeds without custom pollers.
  • Sync product or IoT telemetry stored in TimescaleDB into a CRM so account teams see usage metrics next to the customer record.
  • Replicate subscription and billing events from operational Postgres tables into Timescale hypertables for time-series analysis.

Regional or environment copies

Mirror selected tables to another region or environment continuously, filtered to just the rows that should travel.

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both RavenDB and TimescaleDB, so each workload runs on the engine that suits it.

Migration with zero-downtime cutover

When one database is replacing the other, sync both directions during the transition and switch traffic when ready, without a freeze window.

What you can sync between RavenDB and TimescaleDB

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.

RavenDB objects TimescaleDB objects
Attachments Binary payloads stored with documents, handled separately from the JSON body Regular PostgreSQL Tables Relational reference data such as devices, tenants, or accounts synced alongside the series data.
Revisions Historical versions of documents, useful for audit-oriented replication Views Standard SQL views used to shape or filter data for consumers.
Counters Numeric values attached to documents that change independently of the document body Schemas Postgres namespaces used to separate synced datasets by team or environment.
Time series Timestamped measurements stored per document, synced for metrics analysis Hypertables Time-partitioned tables that hold the main time-series data; the primary read and write target in syncs.
Data subscriptions Server-side change feeds that push matching documents to consumers Chunks Time-bounded partitions of a hypertable; syncs read and write through the parent hypertable and never address chunks directly.
Documents JSON records, the primary unit read and written during sync Continuous Aggregates Incrementally maintained rollups that serve as pre-aggregated read sources for downstream systems.

How the RavenDB and TimescaleDB connectors work

RavenDB

Integration surface
HTTP REST API with official clients (.NET, Java, Node.js, Python, and others)
Authentication
X.509 client certificates on secured servers, instead of username and password
Change detection
data subscriptions and the Changes API provide server-pushed change feeds
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
throughput bounded by cluster resources rather than API quotas

TimescaleDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL)
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Log-based capture via PostgreSQL logical decoding where the deployment allows it — hypertable changes surface on the underlying chunk tables and must be remapped to the parent — or timestamp-based polling on time columns; regular Postgres tables replicate through standard logical replication
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by database resources and connection limits.
How it works

How to connect RavenDB to TimescaleDB — three steps, no code
