Why teams connect MySQL and YugabyteDB

Keep MySQL 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 MySQL 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

  • Expose SaaS objects as MySQL tables so legacy internal tools built on MySQL can read live business data
  • Replicate ERP master data (customers, items, pricing) into the MySQL databases behind storefronts and portals
  • 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.

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.

Regional or environment copies

Mirror selected tables to another region or environment continuously, filtered to just the rows that should travel.

What you can sync between MySQL 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.

MySQL objects YugabyteDB objects
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts and conflict handling. Schemas Postgres-style namespaces in YSQL used to organize synced data.
JSON Columns Validated semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS data. Sequences ID generation objects relevant when syncing writes into YSQL tables.
Stored Procedures Server-side logic that can post-process synced rows. CDC Streams Change streams over the storage-layer WAL consumed through logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors.
Triggers An alternative change-capture mechanism when binlog access is unavailable. Databases and Keyspaces Top-level containers for the YSQL (Postgres-style) and YCQL (Cassandra-style) APIs respectively.
Databases (Schemas) Top-level namespaces that scope a sync's reads and writes. Tables Distributed SQL tables split into tablets; the primary read and write targets.
Tables The primary sync target; rows map to records in connected systems. Indexes Global secondary indexes maintained transactionally alongside table writes.

How the MySQL and YugabyteDB 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
