Why teams connect Amazon RDS and Cloudera Data Platform

Connect Amazon RDS and Cloudera Data Platform 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 RDS's rows in Cloudera Data Platform, 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 RDS 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 RDS sync into Cloudera Data Platform in real time, and result tables in Cloudera Data Platform sync back into Amazon RDS, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Consolidate tables from on-prem and cloud CDP environments into a single cloud warehouse target.
  • Sync curated CDP tables into an operational Postgres so applications query a low-latency copy instead of hitting the cluster.
  • Mirror SaaS objects into RDS tables so product features can join business data with application data in one query
  • Keep an RDS reporting database hydrated from operational tools without maintaining ETL jobs

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Cloudera Data Platform and keep Amazon RDS focused on its operational workload.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from Amazon RDS land in Cloudera Data Platform as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Cloudera Data Platform sync into Amazon RDS, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

What you can sync between Amazon RDS and Cloudera Data Platform

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 RDS objects Cloudera Data Platform objects
Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Hive tables Warehouse tables queried over JDBC/ODBC; classic managed tables are append-oriented.
Columns Field-level mapping targets, typed per the underlying engine. Impala tables The same metastore tables served through Impala for lower-latency SQL reads.
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts. Kudu tables Storage engine tables that support row-level inserts, updates, and deletes.
Read Replicas Low-impact read endpoints often used as the source side of a sync. Iceberg tables Open table format tables in newer CDP versions, with snapshot metadata usable for incremental reads.
Stored Procedures Engine-specific logic that can react to synced rows. Views SQL views that can present curated, sync-ready projections of raw lake data.
Databases Engine-level databases on the instance that scope a sync's reads and writes. Partitions Table partitions (often by date) that incremental extraction jobs use to scope reads.

How the Amazon RDS and Cloudera Data Platform connectors work

Amazon RDS

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol of the chosen engine (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, Oracle)
Authentication
Database credentials over SSL/TLS, or IAM database authentication on supported engines
Change detection
Engine-native log-based CDC: MySQL/MariaDB binlog, PostgreSQL logical replication, SQL Server CDC; enabled through RDS parameter groups, with polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance class, storage IOPS, and connection limits

Cloudera Data Platform

Integration surface
JDBC/ODBC over Hive and Impala SQL endpoints, plus REST management APIs
Authentication
Kerberos, LDAP, or workload user credentials, often brokered through the Knox gateway
Change detection
Polling via SQL on timestamp or partition columns; no consumer-facing change feed
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Constrained by cluster capacity and admission control rather than API rate limits
