Why teams connect Amazon RDS and SAP Hana

Keep Amazon RDS and SAP Hana synchronized in real time, across engines, regions, or services, in one or both directions.

Two databases that must agree is one of the oldest problems in engineering: different engines for different workloads, separate services with overlapping reference data, a migration in flight, or regional instances that share a subset of records. Hand-rolled replication across systems means change capture, conflict handling, and type mapping, all built and maintained by your team.

Stacksync syncs tables or collections between Amazon RDS and SAP Hana continuously and bi-directionally, translating types between the two engines and resolving conflicts by rules you configure. Rows written on either side appear on the other within seconds.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror SaaS objects into RDS tables so product features can join business data with application data in one query
  • 02 Keep an RDS reporting database hydrated from operational tools without maintaining ETL jobs
  • 03 Read SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS system views to auto-discover schema and generate field mappings when new tables are added to the sync.
  • 04 Detect inserts, updates, and deletes on high-write tables via AFTER triggers or a last-modified column and replicate the deltas downstream near-real-time.

Common sync patterns

Regional or environment copies

Mirror selected tables to another region or environment continuously, filtered to just the rows that should travel.

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both Amazon RDS and SAP Hana, so each workload runs on the engine that suits it.

Migration with zero-downtime cutover

When one database is replacing the other, sync both directions during the transition and switch traffic when ready, without a freeze window.

What you can sync between Amazon RDS and SAP Hana

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 RDS objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespaces within a database used to isolate synced tables. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Read Replicas Low-impact read endpoints often used as the source side of a sync. SQL views Standard database views; read-only projections synced outbound when the source data should not be exposed as raw base tables. Read Replicas is specific to Amazon RDS and SQL views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored Procedures Engine-specific logic that can react to synced rows. Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Stored Procedures is specific to Amazon RDS and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Engine-level databases on the instance that scope a sync's reads and writes. Triggers AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers capture changes into a shadow/logging table so updates and deletes are detected near-real-time without full scans. Databases is specific to Amazon RDS and Triggers to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The core sync target; rows map to records in connected SaaS systems. System-versioned temporal tables Column store tables with a history table tracking each row's validity period; used to reconstruct update and delete history for change capture. Tables is specific to Amazon RDS and System-versioned temporal tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. System views (SYS schema) Catalog and monitoring views such as SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS; read to discover schema and auto-generate field mappings for new tables. Views is specific to Amazon RDS and System views (SYS schema) to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon RDS and SAP Hana

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 RDS SAP Hana Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Amazon RDS are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Engine-native log-based CDC: MySQL/MariaDB binlog, PostgreSQL logical replication, SQL Server CDC.

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

SAP Hana Amazon RDS Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in SAP Hana are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Polling on a last-modified timestamp column, or AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers writing to a shadow table.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon RDS: No API rate limits; throughput depends on instance class, storage IOPS, and connection limits.
  • SAP Hana: No SaaS-style request quota; throughput is bounded by connection limits, statement memory caps, and workload-class admission control (concurrency/memory limits) that share capacity with production queries.
