Why teams connect AWS Aurora MySQL and SAP Hana

Keep AWS Aurora MySQL 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 AWS Aurora MySQL 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 Give backend services read and write access to ERP or billing data by syncing it into Aurora tables the application already queries.
  • 02 Stream row changes from Aurora into SaaS tools via binlog CDC instead of scheduled batch exports.
  • 03 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.
  • 04 Read SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS system views to auto-discover schema and generate field mappings when new tables are added to the sync.

Common sync patterns

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both AWS Aurora MySQL 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.

Shared reference data between services

Services that own separate databases stay consistent on the records they share, without a custom replication layer.

What you can sync between AWS Aurora MySQL 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.

AWS Aurora MySQL objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Foreign keys Express relationships that syncs preserve when mapping to related objects elsewhere. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Foreign keys is specific to AWS Aurora MySQL and Schemas to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Stored procedures and triggers Existing database logic keeps firing on rows written by a sync. 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 and triggers is specific to AWS Aurora MySQL and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases (schemas) Logical namespaces that scope which tables a sync connection can see. 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 (schemas) is specific to AWS Aurora MySQL and Triggers to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables The primary sync unit; each table maps one-to-one to a table or object in the paired system. 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 AWS Aurora MySQL and System-versioned temporal tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Rows Inserted, updated, and deleted individually or in bulk during two-way 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. Rows is specific to AWS Aurora MySQL and System views (SYS schema) to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Columns MySQL data types are mapped to the paired system's field types during schema setup. Column store tables HANA's default table type, optimized for analytics; synced two-way as rows over the SQL interface with the primary key driving upserts and delete tracking. Columns is specific to AWS Aurora MySQL and Column store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between AWS Aurora MySQL 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.

AWS Aurora MySQL SAP Hana Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in AWS Aurora MySQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Log-based CDC via the MySQL binary log (binlog), with polling on timestamp columns as a fallback.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • 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.
