Why teams connect Cloudera Data Platform and SAP

Put SAP's records in Cloudera Data Platform as live tables for reporting and analysis, without extract jobs, and write results back where SAP 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 carries financials, operations, workforce data, or all three, the analysis belongs in Cloudera Data Platform next to everything else the company measures.

Stacksync syncs Purchase Orders, Outbound Deliveries, Billing Documents, GL Accounts and Journal Entries from SAP into tables in Cloudera Data Platform continuously, managing API limits and schema drift along the way. The connection is bi-directional, so values computed in Cloudera Data Platform can be written back to fields in SAP where that is useful.

Common use cases

  • Consolidate tables from on-prem and cloud CDP environments into a single cloud warehouse target.
  • Sync curated CDP tables into an operational Postgres so applications query a low-latency copy instead of hitting the cluster.
  • Keep MES and WMS systems aligned with production orders and goods movements.
  • Expose sales order and delivery status to customer portals through a synced Postgres database instead of direct SAP access.

Where SAP is the HR system of record: workforce analytics

Worker and organization data syncs into Cloudera Data Platform for headcount, cost, and planning analysis alongside other company data.

Where SAP runs operations: order and supply analysis

Operational records become queryable tables in Cloudera Data Platform, joinable with sales and finance data.

Group reporting across systems

Combine SAP's records with data synced from other systems in Cloudera Data Platform for consolidated views no single system can produce.

What you can sync between Cloudera Data Platform 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.

Cloudera Data Platform objects SAP objects
Databases Logical namespaces in the shared Hive Metastore that group tables for access control and syncs. Business Partners The unified customer and supplier master in S/4HANA, the anchor object for CRM and procurement syncs.
Hive tables Warehouse tables queried over JDBC/ODBC; classic managed tables are append-oriented. Materials (Products) Item master with plant and sales views, synced to commerce, PLM, and CRM systems.
Impala tables The same metastore tables served through Impala for lower-latency SQL reads. Sales Orders Order documents written from external channels and read for status and fulfillment.
Kudu tables Storage engine tables that support row-level inserts, updates, and deletes. Purchase Orders Procurement documents synced with supplier portals and spend tools.
Iceberg tables Open table format tables in newer CDP versions, with snapshot metadata usable for incremental reads. Outbound Deliveries Shipment documents synced to WMS, carriers, and customer portals.
Views SQL views that can present curated, sync-ready projections of raw lake data. Billing Documents Invoices read for AR status and replicated for revenue reporting.

How the Cloudera Data Platform and SAP connectors work

Cloudera Data Platform

Integration surface
JDBC/ODBC over Hive and Impala SQL endpoints, plus REST management APIs
Authentication
Kerberos, LDAP, or workload user credentials, often brokered through the Knox gateway
Change detection
Polling via SQL on timestamp or partition columns; no consumer-facing change feed
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
Constrained by cluster capacity and admission control rather than API rate limits

SAP

Integration surface
OData (v2/v4) APIs on S/4HANA; BAPI/RFC and IDoc on ECC and on-prem systems; SOAP services
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 or basic auth via communication arrangements on cloud editions; SAP user credentials for RFC on-prem
Change detection
Business events via SAP Event Mesh on S/4HANA; change pointers with IDocs or timestamp polling on ECC
Capabilities
read · write · webhooks
Rate limits
Throttling is configured at the gateway and tenant level rather than as a single published rate limit
