Why teams connect ClickHouse and Rockset

Keep tables consistent across ClickHouse and Rockset, 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 ClickHouse and Rockset 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

  • Consolidate logs and business records from multiple sources into MergeTree tables for retention and reporting.
  • Land product event data alongside synced CRM accounts so analysts join usage and revenue in one place.
  • Sync Postgres or DynamoDB tables into collections for low-latency aggregations without loading a batch warehouse.
  • Read query results back into an operational database to expose computed metrics to applications.

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 ClickHouse and Rockset

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.

ClickHouse objects Rockset objects
Materialized views Insert-time transformations that reshape incoming synced rows into aggregates. Aliases Stable names that point at collections, used to swap datasets without changing queries.
Distributed tables Query-routing tables over cluster shards in self-managed deployments. Integrations Managed source connections (databases, streams, object storage) feeding collections.
Dictionaries In-memory lookup structures refreshed from external sources, sometimes fed by syncs. Virtual Instances Isolated compute units that separate ingest from query workloads.
Tables (MergeTree family) Columnar, append-optimized tables that serve as the destination for high-volume sync loads. Collections Schemaless document containers that ingested and synced records land in.
Databases Namespaces that group tables and scope permissions for sync users. Documents JSON records addressable by _id, written via the Write API in sync pipelines.
Views Saved queries used as curated, read-only sync sources. Workspaces Namespaces that group collections and query lambdas per team or environment.

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

Rockset

Integration surface
REST API (SQL over HTTP, plus a document Write API)
Authentication
API key
Change detection
Polling via SQL queries on timestamp fields; ingestion-side change capture is handled by Rockset's managed source connectors
