Connect Azure SQL and
Databricks with AI

Automate the pipeline between your operational database and lakehouse platform. Stop manually extracting tables, writing glue scripts, and reconciling schema changes between Azure SQL and Databricks—Redbird handles incremental sync, transformation orchestration, and bi-directional data flows automatically.

What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Sync Azure SQL transactional tables to Databricks Delta Lake incrementally

Automatically detect changes in Azure SQL operational tables and sync them to Delta tables in Databricks. Redbird handles incremental loads using change tracking or timestamps, manages schema drift, and orchestrates upserts without custom ETL code.

Trigger Databricks jobs when Azure SQL tables hit volume thresholds

Monitor row counts, data volumes, or specific business metrics in Azure SQL tables. When thresholds are crossed, automatically kick off Databricks notebooks or workflows to process the new data, train models, or generate aggregations.

Write ML predictions and feature scores back to Azure SQL applications

After model inference or feature engineering in Databricks, automatically push scored records, predictions, or derived features back to Azure SQL tables. Keep application databases enriched with ML outputs without building reverse ETL pipelines manually.

Archive cold Azure SQL data to Databricks for long-term analytics

Identify aging or infrequently accessed records in Azure SQL based on timestamps or business rules. Automatically move them to cost-effective Delta Lake storage in Databricks while maintaining query access through the lakehouse.

Sync dimension and lookup tables from Databricks to Azure SQL for apps

Maintain reference data, aggregated metrics, or curated dimension tables in Databricks, then automatically sync them to Azure SQL to power application queries, dashboards, or operational reports that need low-latency access.

Alert data teams when Databricks job failures impact Azure SQL dependencies

Monitor Databricks pipeline runs and job statuses that feed data back to Azure SQL. When jobs fail or produce unexpected results, automatically notify teams and pause downstream Azure SQL updates to prevent bad data propagation.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Azure SQL and Databricks with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands both Azure SQL's relational schema and Databricks' lakehouse structures—mapping between T-SQL tables and Delta Lake formats without manual configuration.

AI that understands SQL Server schemas and Spark data types

Redbird automatically maps Azure SQL data types, constraints, and indexes to Databricks Delta table schemas and partition strategies. It detects primary keys, foreign key relationships, and computed columns in Azure SQL, then intelligently structures Delta tables with appropriate partitioning, clustering, and optimization hints. When schemas evolve—new columns, type changes, or constraint updates—Redbird reconciles differences and handles migrations without breaking pipelines.

10×

faster than building Azure Data Factory pipelines with custom merge logic

No JSON mapping files, SSIS packages, or manual upsert procedures required

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Azure SQL and Databricks simultaneously, merge the results, and format a polished report — sent on a schedule or on demand.

Trigger-based alerts

Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either Azure SQL or Databricks.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.

Bidirectional sync

Push data from Azure SQL into Databricks, or from Databricks back into Azure SQL. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.

Full audit trail

Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.

Triggers & actions for every team

Start automations from any event in Azure SQL or Databricks—new records, schema changes, job completions, or query patterns.
