Why teams connect Greenplum and SAP Hana

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

Common use cases

  • 01 Consolidate data from multiple source systems into partitioned Greenplum fact tables.
  • 02 Load operational data from CRMs, ERPs, and production databases into Greenplum for MPP analytics.
  • 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

Operational data in the warehouse, minus the pipeline

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

Serve warehouse results at database speed

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

Fresh analytics without loading windows

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

What you can sync between Greenplum 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.

Greenplum objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Schemas Namespace tables and control which objects a sync can see. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Databases Top-level containers that scope a sync connection. Calculation views Modeled analytic views over base tables; read-only sources for pushing aggregated or joined results into a warehouse or downstream app. Databases is specific to Greenplum and Calculation views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tables Heap or append-optimized tables mapped directly to sync targets. SQL views Standard database views; read-only projections synced outbound when the source data should not be exposed as raw base tables. Tables is specific to Greenplum and SQL views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Partitions Large tables are commonly partitioned by date, which shapes incremental reads. Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Partitions is specific to Greenplum and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Views Read-only projections used to shape data before syncing it out. 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. Views is specific to Greenplum and Triggers to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
External tables Reference external files for bulk load paths alongside row-level syncs. 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. External tables is specific to Greenplum and System-versioned temporal tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Greenplum 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.

Greenplum SAP Hana Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Greenplum for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling with timestamp or key-based cursors.

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

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Greenplum: Bounded by cluster resources and concurrency settings rather than an API quota.
  • 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.
