Why teams connect MariaDB and ServiceNow

Mirror ServiceNow's data into MariaDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like ServiceNow through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in MariaDB.

Stacksync mirrors Service Catalog Requests, Configuration Items (CMDB), Users and Groups, Tasks from ServiceNow into Databases (Schemas), Tables, Views, Columns in MariaDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into ServiceNow, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Create ServiceNow tickets automatically from CRM cases and sync status back as agents work them
  • Bi-directional sync of incidents with engineering issue trackers so IT and engineering work the same ticket without re-keying
  • Replicate ERP or billing master data into MariaDB databases that power customer-facing applications
  • Feed a warehouse continuously from MariaDB using binlog-based capture instead of scheduled dumps

Read ServiceNow with a query

Records from ServiceNow are ordinary rows in MariaDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate ServiceNow from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in MariaDB and Stacksync propagates the change into ServiceNow, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in ServiceNow arrive as row changes in MariaDB, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between MariaDB and ServiceNow

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.

MariaDB objects ServiceNow objects
Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. Users and Groups Sys_user and group tables synced with HR systems and identity providers.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Tasks The base task table that incidents, changes, and requests extend.
Views Read-side projections used as outbound sync sources. Knowledge Articles Support content that can be mirrored to help centers or search indexes.
Columns Field-level mapping targets with engine-typed values. Custom Tables Scoped or u_-prefixed tables are addressable through the same Table API as standard ones.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. Incidents The core ITSM ticket; commonly synced with engineering trackers and CRMs.
System-Versioned Tables Temporal tables that retain row history natively, useful for auditing synced changes. Change Requests Track planned changes; synced to deployment and release tooling.

How the MariaDB and ServiceNow connectors work

MariaDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (MySQL-compatible client/server protocol)
Authentication
Database credentials (connection string or parameters), with optional SSL root certificate upload and optional SSH tunnel (SSH user + host)
Change detection
Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources
MariaDB setup guide

ServiceNow

Integration surface
REST API (Table, Import Set, and Aggregate APIs); SOAP remains for legacy integrations
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 or basic authentication against the instance
Change detection
Polling on sys_updated_on timestamps; instance admins can configure outbound push through business rules or Flow Designer
Capabilities
