How do I sync Databricks data to PostgreSQL?

Sign up for Weld, connect Databricks as a source and PostgreSQL as a destination. Weld handles the extraction, loading, and lets you transform data using SQL or dbt.

What Databricks data can I sync to PostgreSQL?

You can sync the objects the Databricks connector exposes. The available objects depend on your Databricks account permissions and configuration.

How often does Weld sync data from Databricks?

Sync frequency depends on your Weld plan. Schedules range from every 5 minutes to daily intervals. Each sync processes only new and changed data.

Can I transform Databricks data before it lands in PostgreSQL?

Yes. Weld supports SQL-based transformations in the platform and integrates with dbt Cloud. You can clean, join, and model your data before analysis.

Is the Databricks to PostgreSQL integration secure?

Yes. Weld encrypts all data in transit and at rest, is SOC 2 Type II certified, and supports IP whitelisting. Credentials are stored encrypted and never logged.

Weld MCP server

Ask your agent.
It queries PostgreSQL for you.

Connect Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT or your own agent to Weld over MCP. It reads the Databricks context, finds the tables it needs and runs the query in PostgreSQL.

Under the hood

Technical considerations.
What to expect.

Incremental syncing: Weld uses incremental syncing where supported by the Databricks API, loading only new and updated records to minimize data transfer and warehouse costs.
Schema handling: Weld automatically manages schema changes. If Databricks adds new fields, they're detected and added to the corresponding PostgreSQL tables.
Data freshness: Sync frequency depends on your Weld plan. Most connectors support schedules from every 5 minutes up to daily intervals.
Security: All data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. Weld is SOC 2 Type II compliant and supports IP whitelisting for database connections.
