OneConnect Premium Kafka Connectors: Enterprise Cloud Integrations
Deliver real-time SAP data securely and reliably from Apache Kafka into your modern enterprise data platforms with zero manual schema maintenance.
The OneConnect Premium Kafka Connectors complete your live data pipeline. After data is extracted from SAP by the Data Modeler and processed into Avro-serialized Kafka topics by the Smart Gateway, our Gold-Verified connectors deliver that data directly into your target cloud destination with full schema governance, idempotent writes, and native Change Data Capture (CDC) support.
Supported Destinations and Use Cases
Our connectors bridge the gap between SAP ERP systems and the most powerful data engines in the market:
Databricks: Power your Data Lakehouse, advanced analytics, machine learning workloads, and Generative AI initiatives with live SAP data.
Snowflake: Feed your cloud data warehouse with live operational data for business intelligence, reporting, and enterprise decision-making.
ClickHouse: Drive live OLAP, operational dashboards, and high-throughput analytics with instant SAP updates.
SAP HANA: Feed your own HANA database with live SAP data for in-memory analytics, embedded reporting, and use cases that already live inside your SAP ecosystem.
Also Compatible With
Thanks to our standard Kafka and Avro-based architecture, OneConnect can also feed any Kafka Connect-compatible destination, beyond our premium connectors.
Key Features Built for Mission Critical Data Pipelines
Confluent Gold-Verified Quality
Awarded Confluent Gold-Verified status, our connectors have passed rigorous testing for functional correctness across all CDC operations, high-throughput performance, and failure recovery resilience. You get first-party integration confidence out of the box.
Automatic Table Creation and Schema Evolution
Eliminate manual DDL scripts and pipeline maintenance forever. When your SAP team adds new tables or columns, the connectors automatically create target tables, add new columns, and evolve schemas downstream without breaking existing integrations.
True Change Data Capture (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE)
Traditional append-only connectors create duplicate historical records. OneConnect Premium Connectors support full CDC semantics: INSERT appends new SAP records instantly downstream, UPDATE modifies existing records in place, DELETE removes records flagged for deletion in SAP, UPSERT dynamically inserts or updates based on primary key matching.
Idempotent Writes and Zero Data Corruption
Network hiccups, server restarts, or partition rebalances can resend messages. Our connectors guarantee idempotent writes: delivering the same message multiple times results in the exact same state downstream, eliminating duplicate rows.
Enterprise Security and Cloud-Agnostic Architecture
OAuth 2.0 Authentication for secure token-based access with automatic refresh. Confluent Schema Registry Integration with strict write-time schema enforcement. Deploys natively on Kubernetes across AWS EKS, Azure AKS, Google Cloud GKE, or SAP BTP with zero vendor lock-in.
How Premium Connectors Compare to Traditional Methods
| Common Integration Pain Point | OneConnect Premium Connectors Advantage |
|---|---|
| ✕ Append-only tools lose update/delete semantics. | ✓ Native CDC propagation keeps every record accurate, instantly. |
| ✕ Manual schema migrations break downstream applications. | ✓ Automatic table creation and schema evolution. |
| ✕ Duplicate records caused by network retries. | ✓ Guaranteed idempotent writes prevent duplicates. |
| ✕ Hardcoded plaintext credentials in config files. | ✓ Enterprise-grade OAuth 2.0 authentication. |
