Why teams connect Databricks and Vertica

Keep tables consistent across Databricks and Vertica, 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 Databricks and Vertica 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

  • Serve ML feature outputs computed in Databricks to production apps through a synced operational store.
  • Land CRM and ERP records in Delta tables continuously so lakehouse models work from current operational data.
  • Push segments or aggregates computed in Vertica back into operational tools such as a CRM.
  • Consolidate data from multiple operational databases into Vertica schemas for enterprise BI.

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.

Consolidation after M&A

Bring the acquired company's warehouse data across continuously instead of through one-off dumps.

What you can sync between Databricks and Vertica

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.

Databricks objects Vertica objects
SQL Warehouses The compute endpoint a sync connects to for query execution. Projections Sorted, encoded physical copies of table data that the optimizer selects at query time; they affect load and query behavior rather than being addressed directly.
Change Data Feed Row-level change records on Delta tables that drive incremental reads. Views Logical views used to shape reads for downstream consumers.
Catalogs Top level of the Unity Catalog namespace, scoping which schemas a sync can address. Flex Tables Schema-flexible tables for semi-structured JSON data landed before modeling.
Schemas Group tables and views; syncs typically target a dedicated schema per source system. External Tables Data queried in place on files or object storage without loading.
Delta Tables The primary read and write target; operational data lands here as managed or external tables. Schemas Namespaces used to organize synced datasets by domain or source.
Views Curated read-only projections used as sync sources for downstream tools. Tables Columnar tables; the primary read and write targets for syncs.

How the Databricks and Vertica connectors work

Databricks

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC/ODBC via SQL warehouses, plus a REST API including statement execution
Authentication
Personal access tokens or OAuth machine-to-machine credentials for service principals
Change detection
Delta Lake Change Data Feed for row-level changes; otherwise incremental polling on watermark columns
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Throughput depends on the SQL warehouse size; API calls are subject to workspace rate limits

Vertica

Integration surface
SQL over JDBC, ODBC, and ADO.NET drivers
Authentication
Database credentials, with LDAP, Kerberos, and OAuth options in enterprise deployments
Change detection
No exposed transaction-log CDC; polling on timestamp or epoch columns
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by cluster resources, and bulk COPY is preferred over row-by-row writes.
