Triggers on SDA Virtual Table

Hello,

1.

We have two HANA boxes; Upon insert/update in one HANA box, i need to trigger code/procedure in another HANA box.

We created virtual table from SDA connection. On virtual table (in target HANA box), created trigger. trigger gets created but it doesn't fire. I suspect it has to be physical table for trigger to get fired.

Any insight?

2. I see for HANA table triggers only row level triggers work. Statement level triggers are not supported on column tables. Has anyone written significant business logic in SLT replicated triggers to further process data? We want to avoid scheduling procedures and keep data real-time and do significant processing (lookups, currency translations etc).

Thanks.
