Real-Time Data BI Using SAP LT

Use Enterprise HANA to get real-time operational reporting from SAP as well as non-SAP data sources using SAP LT. Handle large volumes of data using superior data compression, replication, provisioning and transformation capabilities.

Real-Time BI Using RDA

Leverage SAP’s Real-Time Data Acquisition (RDA) to extract data into BW for real-time reporting. Features include the following:

  • Data is loaded into SAP BW at short intervals
  • Restricted to RDA enabled datasources
  • Master data cannot be transferred
  • Data can only be loaded to DSO objects

SAP BW: Virtual Infoproviders

SAP BW modelled infoproviders – SAP RemoteCube, RemoteCube and Virtual Infocubes with services to access real time data from SAP and non-SAP systems

  • Tight integration with SAP BW landscape
  • Ability to implement BW data transformation logic
  • Ideal for customers reporting on real-time data on a smaller scale
  • Complex implementation
  • SAP RemoteCubes support only direct access enabled SAP datasources
  • Poor performance while accessing larger data volumes
