Ubiquitous Data Access: SAP and non-SAP data

SAP BW/4HANA simplifies data integration, offering comprehensive access to external systems

▪ Number of Source System types reduced from 10 to 4

▪ Replicate data in real-time (HANA SDI based replication or via ODP – especially with ODP-SLT)

▪ Access data virtually

▪ Load data using optimizedprocessing

Data Warehousing is still a critical topic in context of S/4HANA

▪ Non-SAP Data

▪ Historical reporting (multi-year beyond YoY)

▪ Archving/Data Aging in ERP

▪ Data Harmonization: Master data alignment/data cleansing

S/4HANA Scenarios:

▪ Typical data warehousing data movement , persisted extraction (S/4 to

BW/4)

▪ Virtualized/Federated data access (BW/4 access to S/4 at runtime)

▪ On-Prem S/4

▪ Cloud S/4*
