Synchronize data across heterogeneous databases, storage systems, and applications reliably, with low latency, while minimizing impact on source performance.
Get up and running fast with a serverless and easy-to-use service that seamlessly scales up or down, and has no infrastructure to manage.
Connect and integrate data across your organization with the best of Google Cloud services like BigQuery, Cloud Spanner, Dataflow, and Data Fusion.
Key features
Datastream reads and delivers every change—insert, update, and delete—from your MySQL, PostgreSQL, AlloyDB and Oracle databases to load data into BigQuery, Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage, and Cloud Spanner. Agentless and Google-native, it reliably streams every event as it happens. Datastream processes over half a trillion events per month.
Datastream normalizes every event’s data type from the source database’s type into a unified Datastream type. This lossless data type normalization across sources means easier downstream processing in a source-agnostic way, regardless of where the data originated.
As source schemas change, Datastream allows for fast and seamless schema drift resolution. Datastream rotates files, creating a new file in the destination bucket, on every schema change. Original source data types are just an API-call away with an up-to-date, versioned Schema Registry.
Datastream supports multiple secure, private connectivity methods to protect data in transit. In addition, data is encrypted in transit and at rest so you can rest easy knowing your data is protected as it streams.
Customers
As we’re modernizing our applications, we're replicating data reliably out of Oracle and into Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL with Datastream which has resulted in minimal downtime to our application.

Use cases
Change data capture integrates data by reading change events (inserts, updates, and deletes) from source databases and writing them to a data destination, so action can be taken. Datastream supports change streams from Oracle and MySQL databases into BigQuery, Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage, and Cloud Spanner, enabling real-time analytics, database replication, and other use cases. Additional sources and destinations are coming in the future.
Pricing
Datastream pricing is calculated based upon actual monthly data processed. Additional pricing details are available on the Datastream pricing page.
Additional resources like Cloud Storage, Dataflow, and BigQuery are billed per that service’s pricing.
