Why teams connect Dynamo DB and Materialize

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

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

Common use cases

  • Read computed view results back into a CRM or application database as derived fields.
  • Drive alerting and operational tooling from SUBSCRIBE change streams instead of scheduled queries.
  • Consolidate multi-region Global Tables data into a single reporting store.
  • Replace ad-hoc export scripts with continuous sync driven by DynamoDB Streams.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from Dynamo DB land in Materialize as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Materialize sync into Dynamo DB, 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.

What you can sync between Dynamo DB and Materialize

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.

Dynamo DB objects Materialize objects
Attributes Per-item fields, including nested maps and lists, flattened or mapped during sync. Clusters Compute pools that isolate ingestion, view maintenance, and serving.
Partition and Sort Keys The primary key pair used as the match key for bi-directional sync. Connections & Secrets Stored credentials and endpoints used by sources and sinks.
Global Secondary Indexes Alternate access paths used when sync queries filter on non-key attributes. Schemas & Databases Namespaces that organize objects a sync targets.
DynamoDB Streams Ordered item-level change records consumed for incremental sync. Tables User-managed tables that accept INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE from sync pipelines.
Global Tables Multi-region replicas relevant when syncs must read from a specific region. Sources Ingestion points (Kafka, Postgres CDC, MySQL CDC, webhook) that feed external data into Materialize.
Tables The top-level containers a sync targets; each table is addressed independently. Materialized Views Incrementally maintained query results that syncs read as continuously up-to-date datasets.
