The synchronization platform
for modern APIs

DataSync API is open source and trusted by the industry

What is DataSync API?

DataSync API is an enterprise-grade synchronization platform for APIs and distributed systems. It provides a strongly-typed schema to define relationships between data, making APIs more flexible and predictable. And it isn't tied to a specific database or storage engine — it works with your existing code and data, making it easier to evolve APIs over time.

A DataSync Query

Describe your data structure and relationships, then query exactly what you need.

POST /api/v1/sync
{
  "source": "system1",
  "target": "system2",
  "fields": ["users", "orders", "products"],
  "options": {
    "mode": "incremental",
    "priority": "high"
  }
}

Get Predictable Results

Receive exactly the data you requested in a structured, consistent format.

{
  "status": "success",
  "job_id": "sync_abc123",
  "synced": {
    "users": 1250,
    "orders": 3420,
    "products": 890
  },
  "timestamp": "2024-11-19T20:00:00Z"
}

Business perspective

A proven solution for startups and enterprises

The best user experience

Deliver high-performing user experiences at scale. Leading apps use DataSync API to create faster, more responsive digital experiences with faster data retrieval and improved bandwidth efficiency.

🔒

Stability & Security

Protect your APIs while maintaining full visibility into data consumption. DataSync API allows you to monitor, secure, and optimize API usage while ensuring compliance with stronger access control.

🚀

Efficient distributed development

Let your teams ship faster with DataSync API's flexible, decoupled architecture. Teams can work independently and efficiently with more rapid iterations and improved collaboration.

Five Pillars of DataSync API

Product-centric

DataSync API is built for front-end engineers, aligning with their way of thinking, how views are structured and how data is consumed.

Hierarchical

Most product development involves creating view hierarchies. DataSync queries mirror UI structures, ensuring a natural way to request data.

Strong-typing

Every DataSync service defines a type system, enabling tools to syntactically validate queries before execution and ensuring predictable responses.

Client-specified response

DataSync services publish capabilities that clients can consume. Clients control the data they receive, requesting only what they need.

Self-documenting

DataSync APIs can describe themselves, allowing tools and clients to query the schema for available types and capabilities.

Precision

Ask for what you need, get exactly that
Send a DataSync query to your API and get precisely the data you request — no over-fetching, no under-fetching. Predictable responses keep apps efficient and performant.

POST /api/v1/sync
{
  "source": "database1",
  "target": "database2",
  "fields": ["users.name", "users.email"]
}

Response:
{
  "users": [
    {"name": "John Doe", "email": "john@example.com"},
    {"name": "Jane Smith", "email": "jane@example.com"}
  ]
}

Optimization

Retrieve multiple resources in one request
DataSync seamlessly follows relationships between data, eliminating multiple API calls. While typical REST APIs require loading from multiple URLs, DataSync APIs get all the data your app needs in a single request.

Productivity

Move faster with powerful tools
Know exactly what you can request without leaving your editor. Highlight potential issues before sending a query and take advantage of improved code intelligence.

Consistency

Build confidently with a type-safe schema
DataSync APIs are structured around types and fields, not endpoints. This ensures data consistency, self-documentation, and clear, actionable errors.

Is DataSync API right for me?

Choose a use case most relevant for your project

A large backend with many services

DataSync serves as a unified data layer across multiple services, simplifying API management and reducing dependencies between teams.

A mobile app

Request exactly what you need in one call with no overfetching. Works efficiently on slow networks and offline scenarios.

A frontend-heavy app

Build complex UIs easier by allowing components to declare their data needs directly alongside their code.

An app with real-time updates

Replace polling with DataSync subscriptions. Your app gets notified instantly when data changes.

Enterprise integration

Integrate databases, REST APIs, and third-party services into a single, cohesive data layer.

Microservices architecture

Simplify API management across distributed systems while maintaining flexibility and performance.
