Why teams connect Amazon DynamoDB and SAP

Give your engineers SAP's data in Amazon DynamoDB: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Outbound Deliveries, Billing Documents, GL Accounts and Journal Entries, Production Orders from SAP into Amazon DynamoDB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever SAP is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Amazon DynamoDB sync back into SAP with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • 01 Use DynamoDB Streams as a change-data-capture source to push item INSERT, MODIFY, and REMOVE events into a CRM, search index, or operational database in near-real-time.
  • 02 Backfill or migrate records into DynamoDB from another database using BatchWriteItem, then keep the two stores in continuous sync.
  • 03 Publish plant-level inventory to e-commerce and planning systems on change or on schedule.
  • 04 Replicate journal entries and billing documents to a warehouse for finance analytics without loading the ERP.

Common sync patterns

React to ERP changes

Updates in SAP arrive as row changes in Amazon DynamoDB, so jobs and triggers can respond as the business record changes.

Where SAP is the HR system of record: people data for internal systems

Worker and org records stay current in Amazon DynamoDB for provisioning, access, and reporting systems that read from the database.

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from Amazon DynamoDB back into SAP, keeping the ERP authoritative.

What you can sync between Amazon DynamoDB and SAP

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.

Amazon DynamoDB objects SAP objects How this pairing syncs
Global Tables Multi-region, active-active replicas of a table kept in sync by DynamoDB; each region is read and written locally with last-writer-wins conflict resolution. Outbound Deliveries Shipment documents synced to WMS, carriers, and customer portals. Global Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Outbound Deliveries to SAP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Time to Live (TTL) Per-item expiry timestamps; DynamoDB deletes expired items in the background and emits a Streams REMOVE record for each deletion. Billing Documents Invoices read for AR status and replicated for revenue reporting. Time to Live (TTL) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Billing Documents to SAP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Top-level containers, each with a partition key and optional sort key; Stacksync syncs a table as a stream of items with full read and write via PutItem, UpdateItem, and DeleteItem. GL Accounts and Journal Entries Financial postings replicated to warehouses for group finance analytics. Tables is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and GL Accounts and Journal Entries to SAP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Items Individual schemaless records (attributes up to 400 KB each); read with GetItem, Query, and Scan and written with PutItem or BatchWriteItem, so write is supported here. Production Orders Manufacturing orders exchanged with MES and scheduling systems. Items is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Production Orders to SAP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Global secondary indexes (GSIs) Alternate key projections that let you Query by non-key attributes without a full table Scan; read-only views maintained automatically by DynamoDB. Inventory / Stock Plant and storage-location quantities synced to storefronts and planning tools. Global secondary indexes (GSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Inventory / Stock to SAP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Local secondary indexes (LSIs) Extra sort keys within the same partition key, defined at table creation; queried like the base table for alternate access patterns. Cost Centers Controlling masters read for mapping costs in finance integrations. Local secondary indexes (LSIs) is specific to Amazon DynamoDB and Cost Centers to SAP — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon DynamoDB and SAP

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.

Amazon DynamoDB SAP Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon DynamoDB are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. DynamoDB Streams emit ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with KEYS_ONLY, NEW_IMAGE, OLD_IMAGE, or NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES views.

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

SAP Amazon DynamoDB Sub-second propagation

DetectionSAP notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Business events via SAP Event Mesh on S/4HANA.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Amazon DynamoDB as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon DynamoDB: Throughput is metered in read/write capacity units (provisioned or on-demand): 1 WCU = one 1 KB write per second, 1 RCU = one strongly-consistent 4 KB read per second. Exceeding capacity or the ~3,000 RCU / 1,000 WCU per-partition ceiling returns ProvisionedThroughputExceededException with throttling.
  • SAP: Throttling is configured at the gateway and tenant level rather than as a single published rate limit.

How the Amazon DynamoDB and SAP connectors work

Amazon DynamoDB

Integration surface
AWS SDK / low-level HTTPS JSON API at dynamodb.<region>.amazonaws.com (PutItem, GetItem, UpdateItem, DeleteItem, Query, Scan, BatchWriteItem, TransactWriteItems), plus PartiQL (ExecuteStatement) for SQL-style access and DynamoDB Streams for change capture.
Authentication
AWS Signature Version 4 (SigV4) signed requests using an IAM access key ID and secret key, or temporary STS credentials from an assumed IAM role; IAM policies scope access down to table and item level.
Change detection
DynamoDB Streams emit ordered item-level change records (INSERT, MODIFY, REMOVE) with KEYS_ONLY, NEW_IMAGE, OLD_IMAGE, or NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES views and 24-hour retention, read via shard iterators (or Kinesis Data Streams for longer retention). No native HTTP webhooks.
