Data management and data structures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is a lot of talk in the ERP world about the data-driven enterprise. Some SAP partners, such as Data Migration International from Switzerland, have developed almost revolutionary concepts in the past that are currently being used in many S\/4 conversion projects. SAP itself has talked about this more than it has done in recent years, if we disregard the Data Hub, which was presented four years ago at Sapphire in Orlando by the then SAP Chief Technology Officer Bernd Leukert and his colleague Franz F\u00e4rber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SAP Data Hub<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Four years ago, Franz F\u00e4rber, then SAP EVP, presented the concept of the Data Hub at Sapphire in Orlando. Incompatibilities and data silos were to be a thing of the past. Every app should have access to every type of data. At first glance, Franz F\u00e4rber's concept was logical, stringent, almost ingenious. SAP wanted to force a lack of app integration through a data interface without media discontinuity.<\/p>

\"Fullsize\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What SAP and Franz F\u00e4rber embarrassingly overlooked, however, was that providing the real data via the Data Hub costs the requested apps considerable computing time. Even if the app required only a few resources for its own tasks, it always had to maintain high computing capacities, because hundreds of data requests could arrive in the next moment. The Data Hub failed miserably. J\u00fcrgen M\u00fcller, SAP's Chief Technology Officer, did not want to explain which functions of the Data Hub SAP has now taken over in Datasphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SAP Datasphere<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The SAP Datasphere offering is a positive development, according to the DSAG user association. This is intended to address the old, existing demand for merging SAP and non-SAP data. This evolution of the SAP Data Warehouse Cloud is an important step in the right direction, said Sebastian Westphal, DSAG Chief Technology Officer, at the DSAG Technology Days - if it succeeds in simplifying the complex integration of data from SAP systems and third-party systems of the increasingly hybrid architecture models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"We hope that SAP will continue along this path in a targeted manner and combine simple products with attractive licensing models as part of this development. Provided that user companies are also offered a suitable commercial offering for classic planning scenarios (such as occasional users) in the SAP Analytics Cloud in the near future, this would be a great success both in terms of content and commercially,\" Sebastian Westphal continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the user association does not address the fact that SAP had already addressed the necessary merging of SAP and non-SAP data four years ago with the Data Hub and failed miserably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Silos and structures<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The singular database server from R\/3 grew into numerous data silos through innovation and acquisitions. SAP was not able to consolidate all data structures of its own and purchased apps. Silos and structures grew into an unmanageable data chaos. What Data Hub failed to do four years ago is now to be saved with Datasphere. SAP Chief Technology Officer Juergen Mueller told E-3 Magazine that SAP has learned a lot in recent years and is now confident that it has solved data management with Datasphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With or without SAP<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Managing data and its structures is an obligation for every SAP inventory customer, so many SAP partners already offered good tools in the past. Most of these apps are open and thus suitable for SAP and non-SAP. Whether Datasphere still has a necessity and raison d'\u00eatre in the current situation should therefore be left open. SAP probably thinks similarly, because the ERP world market leader is not even trying to sell the new product, but is supplementing the SAP Data Warehouse Cloud with it free of charge - forced happiness, right?<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

The new SAP product Datasphere was announced with flowery words at the beginning of March, without any reference to history. SAP already tried once to make all data silos around ERP accessible. Data Hub was supposed to be the ultimate data management solution - but it was not.
