Why teams connect Rockset and StarRocks

Keep tables consistent across Rockset and StarRocks, for a migration, a multi-warehouse stack, or a dataset two platforms both need.

Companies end up with two warehouses for practical reasons: a migration in progress, teams that standardized on different platforms, an acquisition, or tools that only connect to one of them. The result is the same dataset maintained twice, with duplicated pipelines and numbers that almost match.

Stacksync syncs tables between Rockset and StarRocks continuously, in either or both directions. Rows changed on one platform appear on the other within seconds, with schema and type mapping handled, so both warehouses answer questions with the same data.

Common use cases

  • 01 Serve real-time dashboards over CRM and ERP records synced from operational databases.
  • 02 Sync Postgres or DynamoDB tables into collections for low-latency aggregations without loading a batch warehouse.
  • 03 Serve customer-facing analytics from SaaS data synced into one analytical store
  • 04 Consolidate several sources into StarRocks as the query layer while Stacksync handles movement

Common sync patterns

Shared datasets across teams

Where different teams run different warehouses, sync the curated tables both rely on so their metrics agree by construction.

Consolidation after M&A

Bring the acquired company's warehouse data across continuously instead of through one-off dumps.

Migration without a big bang

When one platform is replacing the other, keep tables mirrored while workloads move over gradually, and cut over with nothing to backfill.

What you can sync between Rockset and StarRocks

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.

Rockset objects StarRocks objects How this pairing syncs
Integrations Managed source connections (databases, streams, object storage) feeding collections. Tables Defined with a table model (Primary Key, Unique Key, Aggregate, Duplicate Key) that determines update behavior. Integrations is specific to Rockset and Tables to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Virtual Instances Isolated compute units that separate ingest from query workloads. Materialized views Automatically maintained rollups used to accelerate queries on synced data. Virtual Instances is specific to Rockset and Materialized views to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Collections Schemaless document containers that ingested and synced records land in. Views Logical views for shaping analytical reads. Collections is specific to Rockset and Views to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Documents JSON records addressable by _id, written via the Write API in sync pipelines. Partitions Time or range partitions that scope loads and retention. Documents is specific to Rockset and Partitions to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Workspaces Namespaces that group collections and query lambdas per team or environment. Columns Columnar storage with types mapped from source systems during sync. Workspaces is specific to Rockset and Columns to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Query Lambdas Named, parameterized SQL queries invoked over REST to read synced data. Databases Top-level namespaces addressed exactly as in MySQL clients. Query Lambdas is specific to Rockset and Databases to StarRocks — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Rockset and StarRocks

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.

Rockset StarRocks Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Rockset for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via SQL queries on timestamp fields.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • StarRocks: Ingestion throughput is bounded by cluster resources rather than API quotas.
