Why teams connect Postgres Heroku and SAP ASE (Sybase)

Keep Postgres Heroku and SAP ASE (Sybase) synchronized in real time, across engines, regions, or services, in one or both directions.

Two databases that must agree is one of the oldest problems in engineering: different engines for different workloads, separate services with overlapping reference data, a migration in flight, or regional instances that share a subset of records. Hand-rolled replication across systems means change capture, conflict handling, and type mapping, all built and maintained by your team.

Stacksync syncs tables or collections between Postgres Heroku and SAP ASE (Sybase) continuously and bi-directionally, translating types between the two engines and resolving conflicts by rules you configure. Rows written on either side appear on the other within seconds.

Common use cases

  • Sync Heroku Postgres into a warehouse for reporting without running ETL dynos
  • Keep several Heroku app databases aligned with one system of record
  • Replicate ASE tables to Postgres or a warehouse so analytics run off the OLTP system.
  • Bridge legacy ASE-backed applications to modern SaaS tools through a synced intermediate database.

Cross-engine sync

Keep the same dataset live in both Postgres Heroku and SAP ASE (Sybase), so each workload runs on the engine that suits it.

Migration with zero-downtime cutover

When one database is replacing the other, sync both directions during the transition and switch traffic when ready, without a freeze window.

Shared reference data between services

Services that own separate databases stay consistent on the records they share, without a custom replication layer.

What you can sync between Postgres Heroku and SAP ASE (Sybase)

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.

Postgres Heroku objects SAP ASE (Sybase) objects
Primary and Unique Keys Match keys for idempotent upserts from connected systems. Stored Procedures T-SQL routines that encapsulate business logic; often invoked instead of direct table writes.
JSONB Columns Semi-structured payloads for nested SaaS objects and metadata. Databases and Schemas Namespaces that scope sync configuration and permissions.
Sequences Generate surrogate keys for rows created by inbound syncs. Triggers Server-side hooks sometimes used to populate change-capture tables for syncs.
Follower Databases Heroku-managed read replicas usable as low-impact sync sources. Indexes Access paths that keep keyed polling queries efficient on large OLTP tables.
Tables Standard Postgres tables; the primary two-way sync target for app data. Tables The core sync unit; rows are read and written with standard SQL.
Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs. Views Read-only projections used to shape data for extraction without touching base tables.

How the Postgres Heroku and SAP ASE (Sybase) connectors work

Postgres Heroku

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (standard PostgreSQL)
Authentication
Database credentials from the Heroku DATABASE_URL config var; SSL required
Change detection
Trigger-based capture or polling in most configurations; log-based logical replication availability depends on plan and Heroku's managed server settings
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API rate limits; connection counts and performance are bounded by the Heroku Postgres plan

SAP ASE (Sybase)

Integration surface
SQL over the TDS wire protocol; JDBC (jConnect) and ODBC drivers
Authentication
Database credentials (username/password), optionally backed by LDAP or Kerberos
Change detection
Timestamp or key-based polling and trigger-based capture; log-based replication requires SAP Replication Server components
Capabilities
