Why teams connect MongoDB and YugabyteDB

Keep MongoDB and YugabyteDB synchronized in real time, across engines, regions, or services, in one or both directions.

Two databases that must agree is one of the oldest problems in engineering: different engines for different workloads, separate services with overlapping reference data, a migration in flight, or regional instances that share a subset of records. Hand-rolled replication across systems means change capture, conflict handling, and type mapping, all built and maintained by your team.

Stacksync syncs tables or collections between MongoDB and YugabyteDB continuously and bi-directionally, translating types between the two engines and resolving conflicts by rules you configure. Rows written on either side appear on the other within seconds.

Common use cases

  • Sync MongoDB collections with a CRM so customer documents written by the application appear as CRM records, and CRM edits flow back as document updates.
  • Replicate operational MongoDB data into a relational database, flattening nested documents into normalized tables for SQL reporting.
  • Sync reference data such as pricing or entitlements from an ERP into YugabyteDB for globally distributed low-latency reads.
  • Consolidate data from regional YugabyteDB clusters into one reporting store.

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both MongoDB and YugabyteDB, so each workload runs on the engine that suits it.

Migration with zero-downtime cutover

When one database is replacing the other, sync both directions during the transition and switch traffic when ready, without a freeze window.

Shared reference data between services

Services that own separate databases stay consistent on the records they share, without a custom replication layer.

What you can sync between MongoDB and YugabyteDB

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.

MongoDB objects YugabyteDB objects
Change streams The oplog-backed event feed that powers real-time change capture. Schemas Postgres-style namespaces in YSQL used to organize synced data.
GridFS files Chunked file storage whose metadata can be referenced by synced documents. Sequences ID generation objects relevant when syncing writes into YSQL tables.
Databases Logical groupings of collections that scope a sync connection. CDC Streams Change streams over the storage-layer WAL consumed through logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors.
Collections The table-like sync unit; each collection maps to a table or object in the paired system. Databases and Keyspaces Top-level containers for the YSQL (Postgres-style) and YCQL (Cassandra-style) APIs respectively.
Documents BSON records created, updated, and deleted during syncs, keyed by _id. Tables Distributed SQL tables split into tablets; the primary read and write targets.
Embedded documents and arrays Nested structures that syncs flatten or map to related records in relational targets. Indexes Global secondary indexes maintained transactionally alongside table writes.

How the MongoDB and YugabyteDB connectors work

MongoDB

Integration surface
MongoDB wire protocol via official drivers; Atlas additionally offers an administration REST API for cluster management
Authentication
Database credentials (username/password) or TLS/SSL X.509 certificate (.pem upload), entered individually or via a MongoDB connection string (SRV or standard); Stacksync IP allowlisting required
Change detection
MongoDB oplog and change streams (requires the database to run as a replica set — even single-node); Stacksync leverages these built-in tools to track changes in real time
Capabilities

MongoDB setup guide

YugabyteDB

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (PostgreSQL-compatible YSQL) plus a Cassandra-compatible YCQL API
Authentication
Database credentials
Change detection
Native CDC from the write-ahead log via PostgreSQL logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors
Capabilities

Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput scales with cluster nodes and tablet distribution.
