Why teams connect Google Cloud SQL and ServiceNow

Mirror ServiceNow's data into Google Cloud SQL so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like ServiceNow through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in Google Cloud SQL.

Stacksync mirrors Incidents, Change Requests, Problems, Service Catalog Requests from ServiceNow into Instances, Databases, Schemas, Tables in Google Cloud SQL and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into ServiceNow, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Bi-directional sync of incidents with engineering issue trackers so IT and engineering work the same ticket without re-keying
  • Keep CMDB configuration items aligned with asset inventories and cloud resource databases
  • Migrate from a self-managed database by syncing Cloud SQL and the legacy system during cutover.
  • Keep an internal admin application backed by Cloud SQL consistent with an ERP or billing system.

Automate ServiceNow from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in Google Cloud SQL and Stacksync propagates the change into ServiceNow, replacing custom integration code.

React to changes as they happen

Updates in ServiceNow arrive as row changes in Google Cloud SQL, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

What you can sync between Google Cloud SQL and ServiceNow

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 SQL objects ServiceNow objects
Tables Mapped directly to sync targets; schema changes can be propagated. Tasks The base task table that incidents, changes, and requests extend.
Rows Read and written by primary key during each sync cycle. Knowledge Articles Support content that can be mirrored to help centers or search indexes.
Views Read-only sources for shaping data before syncing it out. Custom Tables Scoped or u_-prefixed tables are addressable through the same Table API as standard ones.
Transaction logs MySQL binlog or PostgreSQL WAL, the source for log-based change capture. Incidents The core ITSM ticket; commonly synced with engineering trackers and CRMs.
Instances The managed MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server server a sync connects to. Change Requests Track planned changes; synced to deployment and release tooling.
Databases Scope the tables included in a sync configuration. Problems Root-cause records linked to incidents, useful in cross-system reporting.

How the Google Cloud SQL and ServiceNow connectors work

Google Cloud SQL

Integration surface
Native SQL wire protocols (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server) plus a REST admin API for instance management
Authentication
Database credentials; IAM database authentication is available for MySQL and PostgreSQL
Change detection
Engine-dependent log-based CDC: MySQL binlog, PostgreSQL logical replication, SQL Server change tracking; polling as a fallback
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
Constrained by instance size and connection limits rather than API quotas.

ServiceNow

Integration surface
REST API (Table, Import Set, and Aggregate APIs); SOAP remains for legacy integrations
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 or basic authentication against the instance
Change detection
Polling on sys_updated_on timestamps; instance admins can configure outbound push through business rules or Flow Designer
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Subject to instance-level API rate limits and concurrency semaphores configured by administrators
How it works

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