Why teams connect MySQL and StarRocks

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

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

Common use cases

  • Serve customer-facing analytics from SaaS data synced into one analytical store
  • Consolidate several sources into StarRocks as the query layer while Stacksync handles movement
  • Replicate ERP master data (customers, items, pricing) into the MySQL databases behind storefronts and portals
  • Keep e-commerce orders in MySQL flowing into finance and fulfillment systems without export scripts

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from MySQL land in StarRocks as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in StarRocks sync into MySQL, 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 MySQL and StarRocks

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.

MySQL objects StarRocks objects
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling. Materialized views Automatically maintained rollups used to accelerate queries on synced data.
JSON Columns Validated semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS data. Views Logical views for shaping analytical reads.
Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. Partitions Time or range partitions that scope loads and retention.
Triggers An alternative change-capture mechanism when binlog access is unavailable. Columns Columnar storage with types mapped from source systems during sync.
Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. Databases Top-level namespaces addressed exactly as in MySQL clients.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Tables Defined with a table model (Primary Key, Unique Key, Aggregate, Duplicate Key) that determines update behavior.
What ships with MySQL ⇄ StarRocks

At scale

Event queues

Handle millions of events per minute without losing a single MySQL or StarRocks record.

Observability

Monitoring

Track your MySQL ⇄ StarRocks sync health, view errors, and replay failed events in one click.

Trading partners

EDI

Transform legacy EDI complexity into simple database interactions between MySQL and StarRocks.

How the MySQL and StarRocks connectors work

MySQL

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (MySQL client/server protocol)
Authentication
Database credentials entered as a connection string or parameters, with optional SSL root certificate upload and optional SSH tunnel (SSH user + SSH host)
Change detection
Database triggers — Stacksync creates deterministic triggers for internal logging and syncing (requires log_bin_trust_function_creators=ON when binary logging is enabled)
Capabilities
read · write · CDC
Rate limits
No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits and server resources
MySQL setup guide

StarRocks

Integration surface
MySQL wire protocol for SQL; HTTP-based Stream Load API for ingestion
Authentication
Database credentials (MySQL-compatible username/password)
Change detection
Query-based polling when reading; StarRocks is most often the destination side of a sync
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Ingestion throughput is bounded by cluster resources rather than API quotas
How it works

How to connect MySQL to StarRocks — 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 MySQL and StarRocks with each platform's native method — OAuth, API keys, or service accounts — plus secure options like SSH tunneling, IP whitelisting, and VPC peering.
