Why teams connect Google Cloud Platform and SQL Server

Connect SQL Server and Google Cloud Platform 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 SQL Server's rows in Google Cloud Platform, 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 SQL Server where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

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

Common use cases

  • Publish change events to Pub/Sub so downstream services react to record updates as they happen.
  • Bi-directional sync between SQL Server rows and CRM objects so .NET line-of-business apps and sales tools share one dataset
  • Expose SaaS records as SQL Server tables that existing SSRS reports and internal apps can query

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Google Cloud Platform sync into SQL Server, 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 Google Cloud Platform and keep SQL Server focused on its operational workload.

What you can sync between Google Cloud Platform and SQL Server

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.

Google Cloud Platform objects SQL Server objects
Spanner tables Strongly consistent relational tables accessed via SQL for transactional workloads. Columns Field-level mapping targets with T-SQL types.
BigQuery datasets Namespaces that group tables; syncs target tables within a dataset. Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling.
BigQuery tables The primary analytics destination, written through load jobs or the Storage Write API and queried with SQL. CDC Change Tables System-populated tables holding captured inserts, updates, and deletes for consumers.
Cloud SQL databases Managed Postgres, MySQL, and SQL Server instances synced like ordinary relational databases. Stored Procedures T-SQL logic that can validate or post-process synced rows.
Cloud Storage objects Staging area for file-based bulk loads into BigQuery and other services. Databases Instance-level databases that scope a sync's reads and writes.
Pub/Sub topics Event streams used to move change events between systems in near real time. Schemas Namespaces (dbo and custom) used to organize synced tables.

Trigger automated workflows whenever Google Cloud Platform or SQL Server data changes, update records, fire webhooks, or kick off sequences without brittle API scripts.

At scale

Event queues

Handle millions of events per minute without losing a single Google Cloud Platform or SQL Server record.

Observability

Monitoring

Track your Google Cloud Platform ⇄ SQL Server sync health, view errors, and replay failed events in one click.

Trading partners

EDI

Transform legacy EDI complexity into simple database interactions between Google Cloud Platform and SQL Server.

How the Google Cloud Platform and SQL Server connectors work

Google Cloud Platform

Integration surface
Per-service REST and gRPC APIs; BigQuery speaks SQL and Cloud SQL exposes standard database wire protocols
Authentication
IAM service accounts with OAuth 2.0 tokens
Change detection
Varies by service: log-based CDC on Cloud SQL (logical replication or binlog, also via Datastream), Pub/Sub for event delivery, polling for BigQuery tables
Capabilities
read · write · CDC · webhooks
Rate limits
Quotas are set per service and per project; BigQuery, Pub/Sub, and Cloud SQL each enforce their own limits

SQL Server

Integration surface
SQL over the TDS wire protocol (Tabular Data Stream), via ODBC/JDBC/ADO.NET drivers
Authentication
Database credentials entered as a connection string or as parameters (host/user/password) in the Create New Sync page
Change detection
SQL Server Native Change Data Capture (CDC); a DBA runs a one-time setup script with sysadmin privileges to enable CDC and create Stacksync wrapper procedures
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance resources, licensing tier, and connection limits

How it works

How to connect Google Cloud Platform to SQL Server — three steps, no code

Configure and sync within minutes, no code. Whether you sync 50k or 100M+ records, Stacksync handles the queues, infra, and plumbing. Integrations are non-invasive and need zero setup on your systems.

  1. 01

    Connect your apps

    Authenticate Google Cloud Platform and SQL Server with each platform's native method — OAuth, API keys, or service accounts — plus secure options like SSH tunneling, IP whitelisting, and VPC peering.
