Why teams connect Openai and SAP Hana

Sync the records in SAP Hana into Openai and land its embeddings, classifications, and generated fields back on the same rows, in real time and without a pipeline to maintain.

Openai 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 Openai — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

AI systems do not hold customers or invoices the way business apps do. What they hold is derived from your data: the vectors and metadata in a vector store, or the classifications, extracted fields, and generated text a model produces over records it was given. SAP Hana is where those source records actually live. The bridge between the two is the row itself, since an item in Openai and the record in SAP Hana it describes are two halves of the same thing, and they drift the moment one is updated without the other.

Stacksync syncs Row store tables, Calculation views, SQL views, Schemas in SAP Hana with Audit logs, Models, Fine-tuning jobs, Files in Openai in real time. Rows created or changed in SAP Hana flow into Openai so inference and embedding run on current data, and the scores, labels, and generated fields Openai produces flow back onto the matching rows in SAP Hana, mapped field by field. A change on either side appears on the other within seconds, with no extraction job or webhook plumbing to keep alive.

Because matching is by a stable identifier, every row in SAP Hana stays tied to its AI-side counterpart in Openai. Retrieval, enrichment, and generated content always resolve back to the record they came from, so there are no orphaned vectors and no labels describing a version of a row that no longer exists.

Common use cases

  • 01 Land Fine-tuning jobs with their status, base model, hyperparameters, and result Files in a warehouse to power MLOps dashboards without per-viewer API calls.
  • 02 Subscribe to batch.completed and fine_tuning.job.succeeded webhooks so a downstream pipeline step fires the moment an offline-inference or training job finishes.
  • 03 Read SYS.TABLES and TABLE_COLUMNS system views to auto-discover schema and generate field mappings when new tables are added to the sync.
  • 04 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.

Common sync patterns

Write results back onto the record

Scores, labels, extracted fields, or generated text produced in Openai land on the matching row in SAP Hana, next to the source data your applications already query.

Keep derived data fresh as sources change

When a row in SAP Hana is updated or removed, its counterpart in Openai is updated or removed too, so nothing in Openai describes a record that has since changed or gone.

Backfill once, then stay in step

Load your existing rows from SAP Hana into Openai to build the index or enrichment set, then let ongoing changes sync automatically instead of re-running the whole job.

What you can sync between Openai 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.

Openai objects SAP Hana objects How this pairing syncs
Models Catalog of available base, snapshot, and fine-tuned models with owner and capabilities; read-only reference data used to resolve inference and fine-tuning targets. 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. Models is specific to Openai and Row store tables to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Fine-tuning jobs Training jobs with status, base model, hyperparameters, trained-model name, and result files; status received by webhook or polled from queued through succeeded or failed. Calculation views Modeled analytic views over base tables; read-only sources for pushing aggregated or joined results into a warehouse or downstream app. Fine-tuning jobs is specific to Openai and Calculation views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Files Uploaded training, validation, and batch-input files plus generated output files; listed and read by ID, not written back as business records in sync. SQL views Standard database views; read-only projections synced outbound when the source data should not be exposed as raw base tables. Files is specific to Openai and SQL views to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Batch jobs Asynchronous bulk-inference jobs within a 24-hour window, with status and output/error file IDs; completion detected by the batch.completed webhook or by polling. Schemas Namespaces that group tables and views; the connector targets a schema and enumerates its objects from the catalog to build the sync. Batch jobs is specific to Openai and Schemas to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Vector stores File collections backing file-search retrieval, with name, file counts, usage bytes, and status; read as a metadata inventory of retrieval assets. Sequences Server-generated key values; relevant when writing rows into tables whose identity is assigned HANA-side rather than by the source system. Vector stores is specific to Openai and Sequences to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Usage & Costs Per-model and per-project token, request, and dollar figures from the Administration Usage and Costs endpoints, read for FinOps chargeback and spend reporting. 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. Usage & Costs is specific to Openai and Triggers to SAP Hana — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Openai 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.

Openai SAP Hana Sub-second propagation

DetectionOpenai notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Push webhooks (Standard Webhooks spec, whsec_ signing secret) fire on batch.completed, fine_tuning.job.succeeded/failed, response.completed/failed,.

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

SAP Hana Openai 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.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Openai: Rate limits are set per organization and per project as RPM/RPD and TPM/TPD and rise across five spend-based usage tiers; responses carry x-ratelimit-remaining headers and return HTTP 429 on breach.
  • 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.
