Why teams connect Apache Kylin and SAP Business ByDesign

Put SAP Business ByDesign's records in Apache Kylin as live tables for reporting and analysis, without extract jobs, and write results back where SAP Business ByDesign can use them.

Apache Kylin is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into SAP Business ByDesign, so SAP Business ByDesign always reflects the current state of Apache Kylin — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

ERP data is some of the most asked-for data in the warehouse and some of the hardest to get: the record types are many, the APIs are strict, and extract jobs are brittle. Whether SAP Business ByDesign carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, the analysis belongs in Apache Kylin next to everything else the company measures.

Common use cases

  • 01 Trigger downstream syncs after segment build jobs complete so consumers only read refreshed data.
  • 02 Read pre-aggregated metrics from Kylin and sync them into CRM fields or planning spreadsheets on a schedule.
  • 03 Sync project and time data with external professional-services tools for billing.
  • 04 Sync ByDesign accounts and contacts with an external CRM so sales works outside the ERP while finance keeps the master record.

Common sync patterns

Where SAP Business ByDesign runs operations: order and supply analysis

Operational records become queryable tables in Apache Kylin, joinable with sales and finance data.

Group reporting across systems

Combine SAP Business ByDesign's records with data synced from other systems in Apache Kylin for consolidated views no single system can produce.

Write-back where SAP Business ByDesign exposes writable fields

Classifications or reference values computed in Apache Kylin sync back onto the corresponding records in SAP Business ByDesign.

What you can sync between Apache Kylin and SAP Business ByDesign

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.

Apache Kylin objects SAP Business ByDesign objects How this pairing syncs
Projects Top-level workspaces that group models, tables, and jobs. Projects Project structures and tasks read for time and billing integrations. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in the writable direction.
Cubes / Indexes Pre-computed aggregate structures that answer queries at low latency. Employees Worker records referenced by time, expense, and project data. Cubes / Indexes is specific to Apache Kylin and Employees to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Source Tables Hive or other upstream tables that builds read from. Business Partners (Accounts) Customer and supplier master data synced with CRMs and procurement tools. Source Tables is specific to Apache Kylin and Business Partners (Accounts) to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Segments Time-ranged build units that partition pre-computed data. Contacts Person records linked to accounts, aligned with CRM contact objects. Segments is specific to Apache Kylin and Contacts to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Build Jobs Batch jobs that compute or refresh segments, monitored via the REST API. Sales Orders Order documents created from external channels and read for status. Build Jobs is specific to Apache Kylin and Sales Orders to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Models Star-schema definitions over source tables that determine what can be queried. Customer Invoices Billing documents synced outward for collections and CRM visibility. Models is specific to Apache Kylin and Customer Invoices to SAP Business ByDesign — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Apache Kylin and SAP Business ByDesign

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.

Apache Kylin SAP Business ByDesign Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Apache Kylin for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Data freshness follows segment build and refresh jobs, so integrations poll query results.

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

SAP Business ByDesign Apache Kylin Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls SAP Business ByDesign for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on last-changed timestamps.

DeliveryApache Kylin does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Apache Kylin's output flows back as field updates on the originating SAP Business ByDesign records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Apache Kylin: No fixed API quotas; query capacity depends on the deployment and pre-computed index coverage.
