MS SQLDataBase

NTDB-Connect

A purchasing application runs on a legacy system based on an ORACLE database.To analyze the data from the purchasing application, the data needs to beloaded into the BW System (possibly installed on a different database, e.g. MS SQL-Server).DB-Connect can be used to connect the DBMS of of the purchasing application and extractdata from tables or views.

DB Connect - Prerequisites

SAP BW 3.0B

Table names and field names have to be in capital letters

Usage of views on top of tables is recommended

The SAP specific part of the database interface, the DBSL(database shared library) for the source DBMS, has to be installedon the application server. It can be downloaded from the SAPService Marketplace. It is licensed and delivered to customerssolely for use as part of the SAP BW.

The database specific DB-Client for the source DBMS has to beinstalled on the application server. It has to be licensed by thecustomer from the DB vendor and is delivered as part of thedatabase access license.

‚Universe‘ is the rightcue here!

‚Universal DataIntegration‘ is our mostrecent approach in thischallenging area.

If your DB Connectonly supports ODBC andis that much restrictedto a small number ofDB platforms,how do you solveconnectivity problemsto the rest of theuniverse?

SAP - Ascential Partnership

Ascential DataStage is SAP’s preferred data integrationtechnology.

SAP signed Reseller Agreement with Ascential

SAP resells DataStage and DataStage Load PACK forSAP BW.

SAP and Ascential working together in:Sales & MarketingDevelopementEngineeringSupport


SAP / Ascential Partnership: Scenarios

Ascential enhances the SAP BW ETL capabilities

Ascential Application Extract PACKs (Packaged applicationConnectivity Kits) provide the SAP BW with connectivity toforeign applications like Oracle, Siebel and Peoplesoft

Database Platforms that cannot be reached via DB Connect orUD Connect can be connected via DataStage PlugIns veryeasily.

In complex flat file scenarios thousands of flat files withdynamic naming conventions collected via FTP Servers caneasily be consolidated and merged into single files or DBTables with very high performance guarantee
