Why teams connect AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and ClickHouse

Connect AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and ClickHouse 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 AWS Aurora PostgreSQL's rows in ClickHouse, 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 AWS Aurora PostgreSQL where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in AWS Aurora PostgreSQL sync into ClickHouse in real time, and result tables in ClickHouse sync back into AWS Aurora PostgreSQL, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • Sync aggregated ClickHouse query results back into operational tools, such as account-level usage metrics into a CRM.
  • Consolidate logs and business records from multiple sources into MergeTree tables for retention and reporting.
  • Sync JSONB-heavy application data into structured objects in downstream business systems.
  • Keep a customer-facing Aurora database aligned with an internal admin tool, with writes accepted on both sides.

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in ClickHouse and keep AWS Aurora PostgreSQL focused on its operational workload.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from AWS Aurora PostgreSQL land in ClickHouse as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in ClickHouse sync into AWS Aurora PostgreSQL, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

What you can sync between AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and ClickHouse

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.

AWS Aurora PostgreSQL objects ClickHouse objects
Tables The core sync unit; rows are matched across systems by primary key. Tables (MergeTree family) Columnar, append-optimized tables that serve as the destination for high-volume sync loads.
Rows Inserted, updated, and deleted in both directions during bi-directional syncs. Databases Namespaces that group tables and scope permissions for sync users.
Columns Rich Postgres types including JSONB and arrays are mapped to the paired system's fields. Views Saved queries used as curated, read-only sync sources.
Primary keys and constraints Identify rows for upserts and enforce integrity on sync writes. Materialized views Insert-time transformations that reshape incoming synced rows into aggregates.
Views and materialized views Usable as read-only sources for filtered or precomputed sync datasets. Distributed tables Query-routing tables over cluster shards in self-managed deployments.
Foreign keys Relationship metadata that syncs can translate into object references elsewhere. Dictionaries In-memory lookup structures refreshed from external sources, sometimes fed by syncs.

How the AWS Aurora PostgreSQL and ClickHouse connectors work

AWS Aurora PostgreSQL

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL-compatible), standard Postgres drivers and JDBC
Authentication
Database credentials, optionally AWS IAM database authentication, over TLS
Change detection
Log-based CDC via PostgreSQL logical replication (WAL decoding through replication slots), with timestamp polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC

ClickHouse

Integration surface
Native TCP protocol and HTTP interface; standard SQL dialect, with MySQL and PostgreSQL wire compatibility available
Authentication
Database credentials (username/password); ClickHouse Cloud issues per-service credentials over TLS
Change detection
No log-based CDC for consumers; incremental reads use polling on monotonic columns, and ClickHouse is usually the destination rather than the source
Capabilities
