Why teams connect Firebolt and SAP Hana

Connect SAP Hana and Firebolt 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 Firebolt, 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 Firebolt in real time, and result tables in Firebolt sync back into SAP Hana, with schema and type mapping between the two systems handled for you.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync CRM objects into Firebolt so customer-facing dashboards reflect recent pipeline changes.
  • 02 Keep dimension tables aligned with source systems while high-volume event data loads through separate batch pipelines.
  • 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

Offload heavy reads

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

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

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

Serve warehouse results at database speed

Aggregates or model outputs computed in Firebolt sync into SAP Hana, where whatever reads from that database gets them without querying the warehouse.

What you can sync between Firebolt 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.

Firebolt objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Views Curated query surfaces commonly used as sources for reverse ETL. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Views is specific to Firebolt and Schemas to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Aggregating indexes Precomputed rollups maintained at write time; incremental loads update them automatically. Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Aggregating indexes is specific to Firebolt and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Engines Compute resources that must be running for a sync to read or write. 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. Engines is specific to Firebolt and Triggers to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Databases Logical containers holding the tables a sync targets. 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. Databases is specific to Firebolt and System-versioned temporal tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Managed columnar tables written with SQL; the main sync destination. 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. Tables is specific to Firebolt and System views (SYS schema) to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External tables References to files in object storage used to stage bulk loads. 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. External tables is specific to Firebolt and Column store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Firebolt 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.

Firebolt SAP Hana Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Firebolt for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling.

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Firebolt: No fixed request quota; throughput depends on the engine size attached to the workload.
  • 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 Firebolt and SAP Hana connectors work

Firebolt

Integration surface
SQL over a REST API, with JDBC, Python, and Node.js SDKs
Authentication
Service account credentials (client ID and secret) exchanged for OAuth 2.0 tokens
Change detection
Polling; Firebolt is an analytics destination and does not expose a change feed
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No fixed request quota; throughput depends on the engine size attached to the workload

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.
