Why teams connect GitHub and Starburst Enterprise

Get the data locked inside GitHub into Starburst Enterprise as live tables, and send results back where GitHub can use them, without writing a pipeline.

Whatever GitHub is used for, it accumulates data the rest of the company wants to analyze, and that data usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay for it.

Stacksync syncs Pull Requests, Commits, Releases, Workflow runs (Actions) from GitHub into tables in Starburst Enterprise continuously, handling schema, rate limits, and retries. Because the sync is bi-directional, results computed in Starburst Enterprise can also be written back into fields in GitHub where the tool can use them.

Common use cases

  • Sync organization and team membership with an identity or HR system to automate access reviews and offboarding.
  • Create GitHub issues automatically from records written elsewhere, such as bug reports logged in a CRM case object.
  • Write curated or reconciled results back to lakehouse tables through connectors that support inserts
  • Read federated views that join warehouse, lake, and database tables, then sync the result into operational tools like a CRM

Analytics on GitHub's data

Records and events from GitHub land in Starburst Enterprise as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

Cross-tool reporting

Combine GitHub's data with data from every other synced system to answer questions no single tool can.

Where GitHub accepts updates: operational write-back

Segments, scores, or reference values computed in Starburst Enterprise sync back onto records in GitHub, putting analysis where the work happens.

What you can sync between GitHub and Starburst Enterprise

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.

GitHub objects Starburst Enterprise objects
Workflow runs (Actions) CI results synced into incident and reporting systems. Schemas Namespaces within a catalog, mirroring the underlying source's databases or schemas.
Organizations and Teams Membership data synced with identity systems and HR directories for access reviews. Tables Queryable relations; writes pass through to sources whose connectors support them.
Users Author and assignee identities matched to internal directories. Views Engine-level SQL views used to shape federated data before syncing it out.
Labels and Milestones Classification fields mapped to statuses and sprints in external trackers. Materialized views Precomputed results that make repeated sync reads cheaper.
Repositories Top-level containers whose metadata and settings syncs read to scope other objects. Columns Typed per the Trino type system, mapped from each source's native types.
Issues Synced two-way with project trackers and support tools, including labels and assignees. Catalogs Each catalog maps to a connector (Iceberg, Hive, PostgreSQL, and others) exposing an external source.
