Why teams connect Apache Pinot and Starburst Enterprise

Keep tables consistent across Apache Pinot and Starburst Enterprise, 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 Pinot and Starburst Enterprise 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

  • Query per-account usage metrics from Pinot and sync them into CRM fields so sales sees product activity.
  • Push reference and dimension data into Pinot via batch segment loads to enrich event queries.
  • Read federated views that join warehouse, lake, and database tables, then sync the result into operational tools like a CRM
  • Expose Iceberg or Hive lake tables to sync jobs through one SQL endpoint without moving the data first

Shared datasets across teams

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

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.

What you can sync between Apache Pinot and Starburst Enterprise

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 Pinot objects Starburst Enterprise objects
Tenants Logical groupings that isolate workloads on shared clusters. Catalogs Each catalog maps to a connector (Iceberg, Hive, PostgreSQL, and others) exposing an external source.
Tables The queryable unit, defined as offline, real-time, or hybrid; the main read target. Schemas Namespaces within a catalog, mirroring the underlying source's databases or schemas.
Schemas Column definitions (dimensions, metrics, time columns) mapped during integration setup. Tables Queryable relations; writes pass through to sources whose connectors support them.
Segments Immutable data files that batch ingestion uploads and the cluster serves. Views Engine-level SQL views used to shape federated data before syncing it out.
Real-time Tables Tables fed continuously from streams like Kafka, including upsert-enabled tables. Materialized views Precomputed results that make repeated sync reads cheaper.
Offline Tables Batch-loaded tables merged with real-time data at query time. Columns Typed per the Trino type system, mapped from each source's native types.

How the Apache Pinot and Starburst Enterprise connectors work

Apache Pinot

Integration surface
REST API (SQL queries via the broker; administration via the controller); JDBC client available
Authentication
Deployment-dependent: HTTP basic authentication or token-based auth where enabled
Change detection
Not applicable for reads out (polling by time column); data enters Pinot via streaming ingestion or segment upload, not row-level writes
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No fixed API quotas; query throughput depends on broker and server sizing

Starburst Enterprise

Integration surface
ANSI SQL over JDBC/ODBC drivers and the Trino client REST protocol
Authentication
Deployment-dependent: username/password, LDAP, OAuth 2.0, or Kerberos
Change detection
Query-based polling; Starburst is a query engine and exposes no change log of its own
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Throughput is governed by cluster sizing and resource groups rather than API quotas
