Why teams connect BetterContact and SAP Hana

Mirror BetterContact's data into SAP Hana so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

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

Engineers integrate with tools like BetterContact through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in SAP Hana.

Stacksync mirrors Company, Lead Finder Search, Enrichment Request, Enriched Contact from BetterContact into SQL views, Schemas, Sequences, Triggers in SAP Hana and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into BetterContact, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • 01 Backfill a warehouse of contacts with waterfall enrichment across 20+ data providers.
  • 02 Feed outbound sequencing tools with verified contact data before campaigns launch.
  • 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

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read BetterContact with a query

Records from BetterContact are ordinary rows in SAP Hana; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate BetterContact from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in SAP Hana and Stacksync propagates the change into BetterContact, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between BetterContact 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.

BetterContact objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Enriched Contact Verified work emails and mobile numbers with job title, LinkedIn profile, location, and skills. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Enriched Contact is specific to BetterContact and Schemas to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Company Company data returned with each contact: name, domain, HQ location, industry, employee count. Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Company is specific to BetterContact and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lead Finder Search Prospect discovery by people and company filters, returning enriched lead profiles. 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. Lead Finder Search is specific to BetterContact and Triggers to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Enrichment Request Batch or single submissions of up to 100 contacts per request for waterfall enrichment. 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. Enrichment Request is specific to BetterContact and System-versioned temporal tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between BetterContact 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.

BetterContact SAP Hana Sub-second propagation

DetectionBetterContact notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Job-based delivery — enrichment results arrive by webhook push or polling of the results endpoint.

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

SAP Hana BetterContact 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.

DeliveryBetterContact does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: BetterContact's output flows back as field updates on the originating SAP Hana records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • BetterContact: Batches capped at 100 contacts per enrichment request.
  • 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.
