Why teams connect Amazon Aurora and Amazon Redshift

Connect Amazon Aurora and Amazon Redshift with one live, two-way sync: operational rows flow into the warehouse, and computed results flow back where systems can read them fast.

Operational databases and analytical warehouses want the same data at different moments. Analysts want Amazon Aurora's rows in Amazon Redshift, current and joinable, without a change-data-capture pipeline to maintain. Engineers want the outputs of warehouse work, such as aggregates, features, and segments, available in Amazon Aurora where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in Amazon Aurora sync into Amazon Redshift in real time, and result tables in Amazon Redshift sync back into Amazon Aurora, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Publish finance rollups computed in Redshift back to spreadsheets or operational tools.
  • Feed customer 360 tables built in Redshift to support and success platforms.
  • Write enriched or scored records from analytics pipelines back into the Aurora tables that power an application.
  • Offload sync reads to Aurora reader endpoints to avoid load on the writer instance.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Amazon Redshift sync into Amazon Aurora, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

Fresh analytics without loading windows

Because changes stream continuously, analysts query current data instead of waiting for last night's load.

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Amazon Redshift and keep Amazon Aurora focused on its operational workload.

What you can sync between Amazon Aurora and Amazon Redshift

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.

Amazon Aurora objects Amazon Redshift objects
Databases Logical databases within a cluster that scope a sync connection. Databases Top-level containers within a cluster or serverless workgroup.
Schemas Namespaces (PostgreSQL) or database-level grouping (MySQL) used in table selection. Schemas Namespaces used to organize synced tables and control grants.
Tables Relational tables synced bi-directionally at row level. Tables Columnar tables used as sync destinations for SaaS and database data.
Views Read-only query-backed sources for downstream syncs. Views SQL views readable as modeled sources for reverse syncs.
Materialized Views Precomputed result sets (PostgreSQL-compatible clusters) readable as sources. Materialized Views Precomputed results that downstream syncs can read for performance.
Columns and Data Types Standard MySQL or PostgreSQL types mapped during field mapping. External Tables (Spectrum) S3-backed tables queryable through Redshift, readable in syncs.

How the Amazon Aurora and Amazon Redshift connectors work

Amazon Aurora

Integration surface
MySQL or PostgreSQL wire protocol (SQL); optional RDS Data API over HTTPS
Authentication
Database credentials or IAM database authentication
Change detection
Log-based CDC: binlog on MySQL-compatible clusters, logical replication/decoding on PostgreSQL-compatible clusters; polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits for wire-protocol access; throughput is bounded by instance class and connection limits

Amazon Redshift

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC (PostgreSQL-derived protocol); Redshift Data API over HTTPS
Authentication
Database credentials or IAM-based authentication
Change detection
Polling or query-based diffing; Redshift does not expose a transaction log for external CDC consumers
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Bounded by cluster or serverless capacity and concurrency settings rather than API quotas
