Why teams connect CockroachDB and Firebolt

Connect CockroachDB and Firebolt 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 CockroachDB's rows in Firebolt, 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 CockroachDB where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

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

Common use cases

  • Sync CRM objects into Firebolt so customer-facing dashboards reflect recent pipeline changes.
  • Keep dimension tables aligned with source systems while high-volume event data loads through separate batch pipelines.
  • Consolidate data from several SaaS tools into one distributed SQL store that survives zone failures.
  • Write application events from CockroachDB back to CRM fields to give go-to-market teams product context.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Firebolt sync into CockroachDB, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

Fresh analytics without loading windows

Because changes stream continuously, analysts query current data instead of waiting for last night's load.

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Firebolt and keep CockroachDB focused on its operational workload.

What you can sync between CockroachDB and Firebolt

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.

CockroachDB objects Firebolt objects
Tables The core read/write target; rows sync bi-directionally with SaaS objects or other databases. External tables References to files in object storage used to stage bulk loads.
Views Read-only projections used as curated sync sources. Views Curated query surfaces commonly used as sources for reverse ETL.
Indexes Secondary indexes that keep sync lookup queries fast on key columns. Aggregating indexes Precomputed rollups maintained at write time; incremental loads update them automatically.
Sequences ID generators that matter when writes originate from an external system. Engines Compute resources that must be running for a sync to read or write.
Changefeeds Built-in CDC streams that emit row-level changes to external sinks. Databases Logical containers holding the tables a sync targets.
Databases Logical containers a sync connects to, addressed like PostgreSQL databases. Tables Managed columnar tables written with SQL; the main sync destination.

How the CockroachDB and Firebolt connectors work

CockroachDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL-compatible)
Authentication
Database credentials with TLS; client certificates or SCRAM password auth
Change detection
CDC via changefeeds, which stream row-level changes; polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits in the SaaS sense; throughput is bounded by cluster capacity

Firebolt

Integration surface
SQL over a REST API, with JDBC, Python, and Node.js SDKs
Authentication
Service account credentials (client ID and secret) exchanged for OAuth 2.0 tokens
Change detection
Polling; Firebolt is an analytics destination and does not expose a change feed
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No fixed request quota; throughput depends on the engine size attached to the workload
