Why teams connect Apache Impala and SAP Business ByDesign

Put SAP Business ByDesign's records in Apache Impala as live tables for reporting and analysis, without extract jobs, and write results back where SAP Business ByDesign can use them.

ERP data is some of the most asked-for data in the warehouse and some of the hardest to get: the record types are many, the APIs are strict, and extract jobs are brittle. Whether SAP Business ByDesign carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, the analysis belongs in Apache Impala next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Sales Orders, Customer Invoices, Materials / Products, Purchase Orders from SAP Business ByDesign into tables in Apache Impala continuously, managing API limits and schema drift along the way. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Apache Impala can be written back to fields in SAP Business ByDesign where that is useful.

Common use cases

  • Read new partitions incrementally from Parquet tables and land them in a cloud warehouse during migration.
  • Publish Impala query results (aggregates, KPIs) to CRMs or spreadsheets on a schedule.
  • Sync ByDesign accounts and contacts with an external CRM so sales works outside the ERP while finance keeps the master record.
  • Create sales orders in ByDesign from e-commerce or CPQ systems and sync order and delivery status back.

Where SAP Business ByDesign is the HR system of record: workforce analytics

Worker and organization data syncs into Apache Impala for headcount, cost, and planning analysis alongside other company data.

Where SAP Business ByDesign runs operations: order and supply analysis

Operational records become queryable tables in Apache Impala, joinable with sales and finance data.

Group reporting across systems

Combine SAP Business ByDesign's records with data synced from other systems in Apache Impala for consolidated views no single system can produce.
