Why teams connect Apache Kylin and StarRocks

Keep tables consistent across Apache Kylin and StarRocks, for a migration, a multi-warehouse stack, or a dataset two platforms both need.

Apache Kylin is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into StarRocks, so StarRocks always reflects the current state of Apache Kylin — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

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.

Common use cases

  • Sync Kylin aggregates into a cloud warehouse to combine them with data Kylin does not cover.
  • Trigger downstream syncs after segment build jobs complete so consumers only read refreshed data.
  • Continuously apply upserts from operational databases into Primary Key tables to keep analytics current
  • Serve customer-facing analytics from SaaS data synced into one analytical store

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 Kylin and StarRocks

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 Kylin objects StarRocks objects
Projects Top-level workspaces that group models, tables, and jobs. Databases Top-level namespaces addressed exactly as in MySQL clients.
Models Star-schema definitions over source tables that determine what can be queried. Tables Defined with a table model (Primary Key, Unique Key, Aggregate, Duplicate Key) that determines update behavior.
Cubes / Indexes Pre-computed aggregate structures that answer queries at low latency. Materialized views Automatically maintained rollups used to accelerate queries on synced data.
Source Tables Hive or other upstream tables that builds read from. Views Logical views for shaping analytical reads.
Segments Time-ranged build units that partition pre-computed data. Partitions Time or range partitions that scope loads and retention.
Build Jobs Batch jobs that compute or refresh segments, monitored via the REST API. Columns Columnar storage with types mapped from source systems during sync.

How the Apache Kylin and StarRocks connectors work

Apache Kylin

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC plus a REST API for queries and administration
Authentication
Username/password (HTTP basic authentication on the REST API)
Change detection
Not applicable for row-level capture; data freshness follows segment build and refresh jobs, so integrations poll query results
Capabilities
read
Rate limits
No fixed API quotas; query capacity depends on the deployment and pre-computed index coverage

StarRocks

Integration surface
MySQL wire protocol for SQL; HTTP-based Stream Load API for ingestion
Authentication
Database credentials (MySQL-compatible username/password)
Change detection
Query-based polling when reading; StarRocks is most often the destination side of a sync
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Ingestion throughput is bounded by cluster resources rather than API quotas
