Why teams connect Cloudera Data Platform and SAP Hana

Connect SAP Hana and Cloudera Data Platform with one live, two-way sync: operational rows flow into the warehouse, and computed results flow back where systems can read them fast.

Operational databases and analytical warehouses want the same data at different moments. Analysts want SAP Hana's rows in Cloudera Data Platform, current and joinable, without a change-data-capture pipeline to maintain. Engineers want the outputs of warehouse work, such as aggregates, features, and segments, available in SAP Hana where the services that read from it get them at normal query latency.

Stacksync covers both directions with one connection. Tables or collections in SAP Hana sync into Cloudera Data Platform in real time, and result tables in Cloudera Data Platform sync back into SAP Hana, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • 01 Publish CRM or ERP records into CDP so enterprise analytics runs alongside existing data lake workloads.
  • 02 Consolidate tables from on-prem and cloud CDP environments into a single cloud warehouse target.
  • 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

Fresh analytics without loading windows

Because changes stream continuously, analysts query current data instead of waiting for last night's load.

Offload heavy reads

Point analytical queries at the synced copy in Cloudera Data Platform and keep SAP Hana focused on its operational workload.

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

Rows from SAP Hana land in Cloudera Data Platform as they change, replacing hand-built CDC and batch extract jobs.

What you can sync between Cloudera Data Platform 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.

Cloudera Data Platform objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Hive tables Warehouse tables queried over JDBC/ODBC; classic managed tables are append-oriented. 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. Hive tables is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and System-versioned temporal tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Impala tables The same metastore tables served through Impala for lower-latency SQL reads. 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. Impala tables is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and System views (SYS schema) to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Kudu tables Storage engine tables that support row-level inserts, updates, and deletes. 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. Kudu tables is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and Column store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Iceberg tables Open table format tables in newer CDP versions, with snapshot metadata usable for incremental reads. Row store tables OLTP-oriented tables held fully in memory; read and written the same way through the SAP HANA client for high-write operational tables. Iceberg tables is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and Row store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views SQL views that can present curated, sync-ready projections of raw lake data. Calculation views Modeled analytic views over base tables; read-only sources for pushing aggregated or joined results into a warehouse or downstream app. Views is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and Calculation views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions Table partitions (often by date) that incremental extraction jobs use to scope reads. SQL views Standard database views; read-only projections synced outbound when the source data should not be exposed as raw base tables. Partitions is specific to Cloudera Data Platform and SQL views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Cloudera Data Platform 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.

Cloudera Data Platform SAP Hana Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Cloudera Data Platform for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling via SQL on timestamp or partition columns.

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

SAP Hana Cloudera Data Platform 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 Cloudera Data Platform as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Cloudera Data Platform: Constrained by cluster capacity and admission control rather than API rate 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.
