Why teams connect Apache Druid and Exasol

Keep tables consistent across Apache Druid and Exasol, 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 Druid and Exasol 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

  • Sync Druid query results into a warehouse to combine real-time aggregates with historical models.
  • Keep lookup tables in Druid refreshed from a CRM or database so query-time joins use current reference data.
  • Sync computed metrics or customer segments from Exasol back into a CRM for sales and marketing use (reverse ETL).
  • Consolidate data from multiple operational databases into Exasol as the central analytics layer.

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.

Shared datasets across teams

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

What you can sync between Apache Druid and Exasol

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 Druid objects Exasol objects
Segments Time-partitioned immutable files that hold datasource data; ingestion produces them. Views Read-only query surfaces often used as curated sources for reverse ETL.
Dimensions String and categorical columns used for filtering and grouping in synced queries. Virtual schemas Federated views over external sources; useful for deciding what needs physical replication.
Metrics Numeric columns, often pre-aggregated at ingestion via rollup. UDF scripts In-database functions that can transform synced data after load.
Ingestion Supervisors Long-running specs that pull from streams like Kafka; the write path into Druid. Users and roles Grant read/write access for the dedicated integration account.
Lookups Key-value mappings joined at query time, refreshable from external systems. Schemas Namespaces that group the tables a sync reads from or writes into.
Tasks Batch ingestion and compaction jobs monitored during data loads. Tables Primary sync target; columnar relational tables written with standard SQL.

How the Apache Druid and Exasol connectors work

Apache Druid

Integration surface
REST API (SQL over HTTP and native JSON queries); JDBC via Avatica
Authentication
Deployment-dependent: basic authentication or an authenticator extension; often fronted by a proxy
Change detection
Not applicable for reads out (polling by time interval); data enters Druid through streaming or batch ingestion rather than row updates
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No fixed API quotas; query concurrency is bounded by broker and historical node capacity

Exasol

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC drivers and a WebSocket-based client protocol
Authentication
Database credentials (username and password)
Change detection
Polling with timestamp or key columns; Exasol does not expose a transaction-log change feed to clients
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API quota; concurrency is bounded by cluster resources and session limits
