Why teams connect Datadog and SAP Hana

Keep SAP Hana and Datadog in step: the rows in your database and the Logs, Events, Dashboards, Metrics your engineering tools track stay consistent in real time, in both directions.

SAP Hana is where your application's durable data lives; Datadog is where engineering and operations teams track the issues, events, messages, or identities that run alongside it. The two overlap constantly, a row should open a ticket, an alert should land as a record, a user in one should exist in the other, but bridging them today means per-tool integration code: auth, webhooks, pagination, rate limits, and retries, built and maintained separately for every tool.

Stacksync syncs System-versioned temporal tables, System views (SYS schema), Column store tables, Row store tables in SAP Hana with Logs, Events, Dashboards, Metrics in Datadog field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set, so the database and the tooling around it never drift apart.

Common use cases

  • 01 Read SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS system views to auto-discover schema and generate field mappings when new tables are added to the sync.
  • 02 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.
  • 03 Sync Monitors and their alert state into Postgres so reliability teams query alert history and noisy-monitor trends in SQL.
  • 04 Provision and update Datadog Monitors from a config database or Git so alert definitions stay consistent across teams and environments.

Common sync patterns

React to changes on either side in near real time

Updates in Datadog arrive as row changes in SAP Hana, and writes to SAP Hana propagate to Datadog within seconds, so triggers, jobs, and alerts fire without polling.

Where Datadog manages users or groups: keep identity aligned

Directory and identity records in Datadog stay matched to the users or owners table in SAP Hana, so provisioning and de-provisioning flow from one source.

Turn rows into the records your tools track

A new or changed row in SAP Hana creates or updates the matching record in Datadog, whether that is an issue, an event, a message, or a user, so the tool reflects the database without a custom API job.

What you can sync between Datadog 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.

Datadog objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Monitors Alert definitions with query, thresholds, and current state via the v1 Monitors API, which supports full create, update, and delete; Stacksync reads alert state into a warehouse or provisions and updates monitors from a config source. 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. Monitors is specific to Datadog and Row store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Logs Log events searched via the v2 Logs search endpoint by time window and submittable through the log intake API; commonly streamed to a warehouse for retention beyond Datadog's storage period. Calculation views Modeled analytic views over base tables; read-only sources for pushing aggregated or joined results into a warehouse or downstream app. Logs is specific to Datadog and Calculation views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Events The event stream (deploys, alerts, comments) searched via the v2 Events endpoint and posted via POST /api/v1/events; used to correlate deploy and incident timelines or to publish deploy and pipeline events into Datadog. SQL views Standard database views; read-only projections synced outbound when the source data should not be exposed as raw base tables. Events is specific to Datadog and SQL views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Dashboards Dashboard definitions and widgets via the v1 Dashboards API with full CRUD; exported for backup and audit, or created and updated programmatically from a source of truth. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Dashboards is specific to Datadog and Schemas to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Metrics Time-series metrics queried in aggregate windows through the query API and submitted via POST /api/v1/series; individual raw points cannot be extracted beyond retention. Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Metrics is specific to Datadog and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Incidents Incident records from the v2 Incidents API with full CRUD, including status and timeline fields; landed in a database for MTTR reporting or created and updated from an external incident workflow. 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. Incidents is specific to Datadog and Triggers to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Datadog 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.

Datadog SAP Hana Sub-second propagation

DetectionDatadog notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Polling with time-windowed search queries on Logs and Events (timestamp cursor).

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

SAP Hana Datadog 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 written to Datadog through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Datadog: Per-endpoint limits return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit/-Remaining/-Period/-Reset headers. Log ingestion and metric submission are not rate limited; search endpoints such as Logs and Events queries carry quotas that Datadog Support can raise.
  • 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.

How the Datadog and SAP Hana connectors work

Datadog

Integration surface
REST API (v1 and v2)
Authentication
API key (DD-API-KEY) plus an Application key (DD-APPLICATION-KEY) sent as request headers; application keys are tied to the creating user and inherit that user's permissions and authorization scopes.
Change detection
Polling with time-windowed search queries on Logs and Events (timestamp cursor); monitor alerts can also push via the Webhooks notification integration. No modified-date CDC on mutable objects.
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Per-endpoint limits return HTTP 429 with X-RateLimit-Limit/-Remaining/-Period/-Reset headers. Log ingestion and metric submission are not rate limited; search endpoints such as Logs and Events queries carry quotas that Datadog Support can raise.

SAP Hana

Integration surface
SQL over the SAP HANA client (JDBC/ODBC drivers); OData/REST via XS for app-layer access
Authentication
Dedicated database user credentials over an encrypted TLS connection (password sent hashed); Kerberos, SAML, JWT, and X.509 certificate authentication are also supported. SAP HANA Cloud enforces TLS and IP allowlisting.
Change detection
Polling on a last-modified timestamp column, or AFTER INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE triggers writing to a shadow table; system-versioned temporal tables and SLT/SDI provide trigger- and log-based CDC. No native webhooks.
Capabilities

Rate limits
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.
