Real-time insights with SAP Datasphere
A future-proof data warehouse must be able to process increasingly complex and large data volumes in an agile, scalable and effective way. The warehouse should also fit into different IT system landscapes and be understandable for business users.
With SAP Datasphere (DSP), SAP has developed a solution that more than meets these requirements. Cloud-based and as part of the new SAP Business Technology platform, the SAP Datasphere can be seamlessly integrated into the entire SAP ecosystem and non-SAP applications. This way, the Datasphere can be excellently used as an enhancement of the existing SAP BW/4HANA or as a stand-alone analytical platform. We will be happy to advise you.
SAP Datasphere Approaches
In many companies, the data warehouse is the responsibility of central IT. New report requirements or adjustments of existing reports must often initially be requested from IT experts or the entire data model has to be adapted in a time-consuming process.
It is precisely in this area of conflict that the SAP Datasphere plays to its strengths. It helps
- to resolve complex data silos,
- to consolidate and combine data sources and
- to establish a greater harmonization between business requirements and technical necessities.
By involving business units more in the reporting process, report requirements can be implemented in a much more agile and flexible way.
Older data warehouse systems are not equipped for processing large, complex or unstructured data such as text files, images, sensor data or other types of data. Due to the diversity of technologies and the complexity of the infrastructure, the range of providers is shifting more and more towards the cloud.
As part of the Business Technology Platform (BTP), SAP Datasphere offers
- Full compatibility with the entire SAP ecosystem
- Integration of applications by third-party providers via a number of adapters
- Free scalability of the size and processing power to the requirements and size of the company
Moreover, SAP Datasphere has all the benefits of a cloud application: As SaaS, neither installation nor maintenance are required.
IT system landscapes often consist of different applications, which have historically grown over years and which are continuously adjusted and further developed in accordance with the requirements of the specialist departments. Investments in new programs, customizing and interfaces are always connected with large financial outlay and organizational effort.
The hybrid approach of SAP Datasphere is the ideal solution, especially in combination with SAP BW/4HANA:
- It uses the strength of its own server-based database systems and a cloud system optimized for analytics and
- provides a model transfer out of the box with which you can easily transfer analytical queries of the BW system to DSP without having to create them again.
In the combination, SAP Datasphere works as the central analytics platform.
