SAP rolls out 'smart' new way to do data warehousing |
March 25, 2014
SAP is continuing to merge its HANA in-memory database platform with its Business Warehouse data warehousing software, with the latest update adding support for HANA’s real-time data loading services.Companies with large data warehouses often load information sets at off-peak times, such as in overnight batch jobs. But with the general availability of Business Warehouse 7.4, HANA’s “smart data access” services can tap any source within or outside a company as it’s needed. SAP is calling the approach an “in-memory data fabric.”The services don’t actually physically move data into Business Warehouse; rather, the target sources are viewed as virtual tables.
