SQL Server to StarRocks

BladePipe supports data replication from SQL Server to StarRocks. View supported migration, sync, verification, and connector capabilities.

Target DataSource:

Connection

Basic Functions

FunctionDescription
Schema Migration

If the target schema does not exist, BladePipe will automatically generate and execute CREATE statements based on the source metadata and the mapping rule.

Full Data Migration

Migrate data by sequentially scanning data in tables and writing it in batches to the target database.

Incremental Data Sync

Sync of common DML like INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE is supported.
UPDATE and DELETE for tables without primary keys are not synced by default (manual selection required).

Data Verification and Correction

Verify all existing data. Optionally, you can correct the inconsistent data based on verification results. Scheduled DataTasks are supported.
For more information, see Create Verification and Correction DataJob.

Subscription Modification

Add, delete, or modify the subscribed tables with support for historical data migration. For more information, see Modify Subscription.

Table Name Mapping

Support the mapping rules, namely, keeping the name the same as that in Source, converting the text to lowercase, converting the text to uppercase, truncating the name by "_digit" suffix.

DDL Sync

ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN, DROP COLUMN

Advanced Functions

FunctionDescription
Removal of Target Data before Full Data Migration

Remove the existing data in the Target before running the Full Data Migration, applicable for DataJobs reruning and scheduled Full Data migrations.

Recreating Target Table

Recreate target tables before running the Full Data Migration, applicable for DataJobs reruning and scheduled Full Data migrations.

Stream Load

Use Stream Load to write data to StarRocks BE. By default, batch write is adopted, with dynamic adjustment of data flush interval and batch size.

Handling of Zero Value for Time

Allow setting zero value for time to different data types to prevent errors when writing to the Target.

Custom Table Properties

Include settings for properties such as bucket count and replica count.

Setting Data Partitions

When creating a DataJob, specify partition definitions at the table level (static or dynamic). Automatically add these partition definitions during schema migration.

Custom Code

For more information, see Custom Code Processing, Debug Custom Code and Logging in Custom Code.

Data Filtering Conditions

Support data filtering using WHERE conditions, with SQL-92 as the SQL language. For more information, see Data Filtering.

Setting Target Primary Key

Change the primary key to another field to facilitate data aggregation and other operations.

Limits

LimitDescription
Target Table Type

Only support Primary Key model.

Source Table Type

Migration and sync of tables without primary keys are not supported.

DDL Synchronization Errors
  • Continuous DDLs on the same table will cause errors (because asynchronous DDLs are executed on a target StarRocks instance).
  • Errors may occur when modifying field constraints or some types of DDL.
  • If DDL errors occur, you can change the target table schema and then skip the errors by setting DataJob parameters.
Incremental Data Write Conflict Resolution Rule

Using Stream Load method, the primary key is used for full row replacement.


Source

Prerequisites

PrerequisiteDescription
Permissions for Account

See Required Permissions for SQL Server.

Enable SQL Server CDC

Run: exec [your_database].sys.sp_cdc_enable_db

Parameters

ParameterDescription
maxTxsPerIteration

Maximum number of transactions to scan each time in incremental data sync.

scanParallel

Full data stage: The number of tables to be scanned in parallel.
Incremental stage: The number of CDC tables to be scanned in parallel.

eventStoreSize

Size of the cache for parsed incremental events.

Tips: To modify the general parameters, see General Parameters and Functions.


Target

Prerequisites

PrerequisiteDescription
Permissions for Account

SELECT and DDL permissions (optional)

Port Preparation

Allow the migration and sync node (Worker) to connect to the StarRocks FE QueryPort and FE/BE HttpPort.

Parameters

ParameterDescription
host

MySQL port, corresponding to StarRocks FE QueryPort.

httpHost

Host for StarRocks stream load, corresponding to StarRocks FE/BE HttpPort.

totalDataInMemMb

Maximum data size allowed in memory when writing in batches; If the data size exceeds the memory limit, or the wait time exceeds asyncFlushIntervalSec, then data is flushed to the write queue.

asyncFlushIntervalSec

Interval to wait for flushing when writing in batches; If the wait time exceeds asyncFlushIntervalSec, or the data size exceeds totalDataInMemMb, then data is flushed to the write queue.

flushBatchMb

Maximum batch size per table; If the batch size exceeds this limit, then data is flushed to the write queue.

realFlushPauseSec

Wait time to flush data to StarRocks using stream load, 0 means no wait is needed.

soTimeoutSec

TCP socket timeout (so_timeout) during QueryPort operations.

httpSoTimeoutSec

TCP socket timeout (so_timeout) during HttpPort operations.

enableTimeZoneProcess

Enable time zone conversion for time fields.

timezone

Timezone in the Target, e.g., +08:00 Asia/Shanghai America/New_York.

maxInSizePerQuery

Maximum number of IN clause values per query during secondary verification. Queries exceeding this limit will be automatically split.

Tips: To modify the general parameters, see General Parameters and Functions.
