Why teams connect Active Directory and SAP ASE (Sybase)

Close the gap between your application data and your directory: SAP ASE (Sybase) and Active Directory share users, groups, and access in real time, in both directions.

Active Directory is the system of record for who people are and what they can reach: users, the groups they belong to, and the applications assigned to them. SAP ASE (Sybase) holds the operational data those same people show up in, whether an employee or member table that decides who should have an account at all, a customers list, or the rows an application checks before it authorizes an action. The two describe overlapping users and groups, and when a nightly export or a hand-run script is all that connects them, accounts lag joiners and leavers and the application authorizes against a stale picture of who has access.

Stacksync syncs Triggers, Indexes, Tables, Views in SAP ASE (Sybase) with Groups, Group memberships, Devices, Directory roles in Active Directory field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields, with the directory holding credentials and group membership and the database holding the source list of people who should exist at all, and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent, resolving conflicts by rules you set. A person added to a table becomes an account within seconds, a departure disables one just as fast, and the directory's users and groups are always present in your tables as ordinary rows.

Common use cases

  • 01 Expose customer and transaction data locked in ASE to CRM and reporting systems.
  • 02 Replicate ASE tables to Postgres or a warehouse so analytics run off the OLTP system.
  • 03 Read Devices and service principals into a database for identity, asset, and license inventory across the tenant.
  • 04 Two-way sync Users and Groups between Microsoft Entra ID and an HRIS or Postgres so joiners, movers, and leavers provision and deprovision automatically.

Common sync patterns

Deprovision the moment the record changes

When someone is marked inactive or removed in SAP ASE (Sybase), the matching account in Active Directory is disabled within seconds, closing the window between a departure and a login that still works.

Read users and groups as ordinary tables

Users, groups, and their memberships from Active Directory land in SAP ASE (Sybase) as rows your application and queries can join, so authorization checks and access reporting run against the database instead of the directory API.

Keep group and role membership aligned

A group or role change made in either system updates the other, so the entitlements an application enforces match what the directory grants.

What you can sync between Active Directory and SAP ASE (Sybase)

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Active Directory objects SAP ASE (Sybase) objects How this pairing syncs
Directory roles Admin role assignments (directoryRole); read for access reviews and least-privilege governance. Stored Procedures T-SQL routines that encapsulate business logic; often invoked instead of direct table writes. Directory roles is specific to Active Directory and Stored Procedures to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Service principals & applications App registrations and enterprise apps; read-mostly for entitlement and license inventory. Databases and Schemas Namespaces that scope sync configuration and permissions. Service principals & applications is specific to Active Directory and Databases and Schemas to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizational units On-prem AD DS containers (LDAP organizationalUnit) used to scope which users and groups a sync includes. Triggers Server-side hooks sometimes used to populate change-capture tables for syncs. Organizational units is specific to Active Directory and Triggers to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Organizational contacts Directory contact objects (orgContact); synced for shared address-book and CRM person records. Indexes Access paths that keep keyed polling queries efficient on large OLTP tables. Organizational contacts is specific to Active Directory and Indexes to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Users User accounts in Entra ID and on-prem AD DS; synced two-way to create, update attributes, and enable or disable accounts. Tables The core sync unit; rows are read and written with standard SQL. Users is specific to Active Directory and Tables to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Groups Security and Microsoft 365 groups; synced two-way including name, type, and owner, with membership tracked separately. Views Read-only projections used to shape data for extraction without touching base tables. Groups is specific to Active Directory and Views to SAP ASE (Sybase) — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Active Directory and SAP ASE (Sybase)

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Active Directory SAP ASE (Sybase) Sub-second propagation

DetectionActive Directory notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Microsoft Graph delta query (change tracking) for Users and Groups, plus change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) for near-real-time triggers.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to SAP ASE (Sybase) as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

SAP ASE (Sybase) Active Directory Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls SAP ASE (Sybase) for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Timestamp or key-based polling and trigger-based capture.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Active Directory through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Active Directory: Graph throttles by resource-unit cost per app per tenant in 10-second windows (about 3,500–8,000 units by tenant size); directory delta tokens expire after ~7 days.

How the Active Directory and SAP ASE (Sybase) connectors work

Active Directory

Integration surface
Microsoft Graph REST API (Entra ID / cloud) and LDAP/LDAPS (on-premises AD DS)
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 via the Microsoft identity platform — an app registration with application or delegated permissions (e.g. User.ReadWrite.All, Group.ReadWrite.All) and admin consent; on-prem AD DS uses a bound service account over LDAPS.
Change detection
Microsoft Graph delta query (change tracking) for Users and Groups, plus change-notification subscriptions (webhooks) for near-real-time triggers; on-prem AD DS uses the DirSync control and uSNChanged polling.

SAP ASE (Sybase)

Integration surface
SQL over the TDS wire protocol; JDBC (jConnect) and ODBC drivers
