Why teams connect Azure Cosmos DB and SAP

Give your engineers SAP's data in Azure Cosmos DB: read it with normal queries, write back through the sync, and skip the ERP API entirely.

ERP data sits behind interfaces built for the ERP's own modules, not for your internal systems. Teams that need those records, for reporting services, internal tools, or automations, end up writing integration code against a strict API and maintaining it through every upgrade.

Stacksync mirrors Inventory / Stock, Cost Centers, Business Partners, Materials (Products) from SAP into Azure Cosmos DB and keeps both sides consistent in real time. Whatever SAP is the system of record for, whether financials, operations, people, or procurement, those records become rows your code can query, and changes written in Azure Cosmos DB sync back into SAP with its validations respected.

Common use cases

  • Mirror Cosmos DB items into Postgres so teams can query operational data with standard SQL.
  • Two-way sync between a Cosmos DB-backed product catalog and a PIM or commerce platform.
  • Expose sales order and delivery status to customer portals through a synced Postgres database instead of direct SAP access.
  • Publish plant-level inventory to e-commerce and planning systems on change or on schedule.

Controlled write-back

Choose exactly which tables and fields may flow from Azure Cosmos DB back into SAP, keeping the ERP authoritative.

Read ERP records with a query

Records from SAP live in Azure Cosmos DB as ordinary tables or collections, joinable with the rest of your data.

Internal tools and automations without API code

Scripts and services read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the SAP interface, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Azure Cosmos DB and SAP

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.

Azure Cosmos DB objects SAP objects
Partition keys Determine data distribution and must be included on writes for the sync to route items correctly. Outbound Deliveries Shipment documents synced to WMS, carriers, and customer portals.
Change feed entries Ordered record of inserts and updates per partition, consumed for incremental sync. Billing Documents Invoices read for AR status and replicated for revenue reporting.
Stored procedures and triggers Server-side logic scoped to a partition; relevant when writes must respect existing validation. GL Accounts and Journal Entries Financial postings replicated to warehouses for group finance analytics.
Databases Top-level namespaces that scope containers and throughput provisioning. Production Orders Manufacturing orders exchanged with MES and scheduling systems.
Containers The unit of partitioning and throughput; each container maps to a synced collection. Inventory / Stock Plant and storage-location quantities synced to storefronts and planning tools.
Items (JSON documents) Schema-flexible JSON records read and written during sync; nested structures are flattened or mapped as needed. Cost Centers Controlling masters read for mapping costs in finance integrations.
