SAP HANA to PostgreSQL

BladePipe supports data replication from SAP HANA to PostgreSQL. View supported migration, sync, verification, and connector capabilities.

Target DataSource:

Connection

Basic Functions

FunctionDescription
Schema Migration

If the target schema does not exist, BladePipe will automatically generate and execute CREATE statements based on the source metadata and the mapping rule.

Full Data Migration

Migrate data by sequentially scanning data in tables and writing it in batches to the target database.

Incremental Data Sync

Sync of common DML like INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE is supported.

Data Verification and Correction

Verify all existing data. Optionally, you can correct the inconsistent data based on verification results. Scheduled DataTasks are supported.
For more information, see Create Verification and Correction DataJob.

Subscription Modification

Add, delete, or modify the subscribed tables with support for historical data migration. For more information, see Modify Subscription.

Table Name Mapping

Support the mapping rules, namely, keeping the name the same as that in Source, converting the text to lowercase, converting the text to uppercase, truncating the name by "_digit" suffix.

Metadata Retrieval

Retrieve the target metadata with filtering conditions from the source table.

Advanced Functions

FunctionDescription
Trigger-based Incremental Data Sync

The DataJob automatically creates triggers on tables. These triggers capture INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE events and write them to the CDC tables.

Handling of Zero Value for Time

Allow setting zero value for time to different data types to prevent errors when writing to the Target.

Custom Code

For more information, see Custom Code Processing, Debug Custom Code and Logging in Custom Code.

Data Filtering Conditions

Support data filtering using WHERE conditions, with SQL-92 as the SQL language. For more information, see Data Filtering.

Setting Update Conditions for Target

Set additional update conditions for UPDATE operations, used to resolve confilcts in bidirectional sync.

Limits

LimitDescription
DDL Change Handling

BladePipe captures data changes in a source SAP HANA instance through triggers. DDL synchronization is not supported. If there are DDL changes, follow the steps in Change Schema in a Source SAP HANA Instance.

Hana Data Types in Incremental Sync

In the incremental data sync phase with a source Hana instance, it does not allow capturing changes for TEXT, BIN_TEXT, ST_POINT, and ST_GEOMETRY data types by triggers.

Primary Key Conflict Handling

PostgreSQL <= 9.4 or Greenplum <= 6 does not support conflict skipping or replacement. Performance may be affected when there are a large number of primary key conflicts.

Parameters

ParameterDescription
sysTriggerDataSchema

The schema name where the trigger writes incremental data.

triggerDataCleanIntervalMin

The cleanup interval for trigger incremental data (in minutes).

triggerDataRetentionMin

The retention time for trigger incremental data (in minutes).

dbHeartbeatEnable

Configure whether to enable heartbeat for the source database.

needTriggerDataJsonEscape

Whether to escape characters (\) in the trigger incremental JSON.

triggerDataJsonQuotation

Target

Prerequisites

PrerequisiteDescription
Permissions for Account

Required permissions include SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, and common DDL permissions.
For Aliyun AnalyticDB for PostgreSQL, initial accounts or those with SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, and common DDL permissions are needed.

Port Preparation

Allow the migration and sync node (sidecar) to connect to PostgreSQL / Greenplum / AnalyticDB for PostgreSQL / PolarDB for PostgreSQL standard interactive interface (e.g., 5432).

Parameters

ParameterDescription
keyConflictStrategy

Strategy for handling primary key conflicts during write in Incremental DataTask:

  • IGNORE: Ignore conflicts (default)
  • REPLACE: Replace conflicts (optional)

dstWholeReplace

Convert INSERT and UPDATE operations into full row replacement in the Target.

enableTimeZoneProcess

Enable time zone conversion to datetime fields.

timezone

Target time zone, e.g., +08:00, Asia/Shanghai, America/New_York.

defaultZeroDate

Default value for replacing '0000-00-00 00:00:00' / '0000-00-00' values. Optional values include:

  • null (empty)
  • Time (14:23:33)
  • Date (1970-01-01)
  • DateTime (1970-01-01 00:00:00),
  • TimeZone Time (14:23:33+08:00 or 1970-01-01 00:00:00+08:00)
caseSensitive

Case sensitivity strategy for SQL statements, including:

  • UpperCase: Convert to uppercase
  • LowerCase: Convert to lowercase
  • Sensitive: Add qualifiers
  • NoSpecified: No conversion/No qualifiers

writeStrategy

Strategy of writing data to the Target, including:

  • ROW (single row)
  • MULTI_SQL (multiple statements)
  • BATCH (write data in batches, default option)
  • COPY (PostgreSQL COPY command)
defaultGisSRID

Set the SRID for GIS data types.
