Why teams connect Apache Doris and MotherDuck

Keep tables consistent across Apache Doris and MotherDuck, 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 Apache Doris and MotherDuck 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

  • Land CRM and operational database records in Doris for low-latency dashboards over fresh data.
  • Continuously upsert changing records into Unique Key tables so analytics reflect current state rather than append-only history.
  • Share curated, synced datasets with other teams through read-only database shares
  • Land CRM and operational database records in MotherDuck so a small team gets warehouse-style analytics without cluster management

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.

Serve tools that only connect to one platform

Mirror the datasets a BI tool, notebook, or application needs onto the platform it can actually reach.

What you can sync between Apache Doris and MotherDuck

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.

Apache Doris objects MotherDuck objects
Materialized Views Precomputed views readable for downstream syncs and BI. Views Modeled projections used as outbound sync sources.
Users and Roles Principals used to grant the sync connection scoped access. Database Shares Read-only copies of a database shared with other users or teams.
Databases Logical containers that scope connections and grants. Attached Local DuckDB Databases Local files attached alongside cloud databases for hybrid queries.
Tables Columnar tables in one of Doris's table models, used as sync destinations. Databases Cloud-hosted DuckDB databases that scope a sync's reads and writes.
Unique Key Tables Tables supporting primary-key upserts, the natural target for row-level syncs. Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize synced tables.
Aggregate Key Tables Tables that pre-aggregate on load, used for metric rollups. Tables The main landing target for synced records and source for analysis.

How the Apache Doris and MotherDuck connectors work

Apache Doris

Integration surface
MySQL wire protocol for SQL access; HTTP APIs (such as Stream Load) for bulk ingestion
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Polling on partition or timestamp columns for reads; ingestion into Doris is push-based via load jobs
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API quotas; load throughput depends on cluster resources and load-job configuration

MotherDuck

Integration surface
SQL through DuckDB clients and drivers using a MotherDuck (md:) connection
Authentication
Access token created in MotherDuck (Settings > General > Create Token), pasted into Stacksync; database name and schema configurable if not using defaults
Change detection
Polling; no log-based CDC or webhook surface is exposed
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to the platform's compute and concurrency limits rather than per-request API rate limits
