Ronald and Michel did their utmost in digesting 4 days of Teched knowledge,
staying awake through some presentations and making notes of the
presentations they found worth taking back to all of you.
The following slides contain interpretations of the stuff said at TechEd and do
not necessarily represent the way it was intended by SAP. Actually SAP
probably was surprised on some occasions what the colleagues actually said
about Data Warehouse Cloud, SAC, and Webi (;-).
Please don’t blame us if our interpretations might be off track as, in the end,
we’re only human (some more than others).
Ronald and Michel assume no responsibility for errors or ommisions in this
document, not even if such damages were caused by SAP intentionally or
appear to be grossly negligent.

Agenda
The new kid(s) on the Block: HANA as a Service en Data Warehouse Cloud
SAC is everywhere
On prem lives another day
5. 5
The SAP BI strategy can be confusing, just remember 3 things
1. Cloud first!
2. On premise is not dead!
3. In case 1 and 2 do not
work for you: Hybrid is the
new on premise!

Integrating SAP S/4HANA into SAP Data Hub:
Deep Dive and Hands On DAT361
Integration with SAP is a reality!
Wait, what?

Integrating SAP S/4HANA into SAP Data Hub:
Deep Dive and Hands On DAT300
Integration with SAP is a reality!
Wait, what?
Data Hub + ML =
44. 44
So remember
1. Cloud first!
Even though innovating in the cloud is much
easier for a software vendor, reality is
customers are on prem…
2. On premise is not dead!
And therefore, BOBJ gets a second life,
BW/4HANA stays the on prem data
warehouse of choice
3. In case 1 and 2 do not work for you: Hybrid is the
new on premise!
But… hybrid scenario’s are everywhere. It’s
the way to get new customers into the
cloud. Expect a lot of innovations in that
space!

7 dagen teched in 40 min
Brug: Roadmap dus disclaimer
Lets give some direction: this is important!
BI in the Cloud is again about 3 things
DWH cloud
HANA as a Service
SAC
Business is the new IT!
And what happens when business is in the lead of BI?
We get back into the game a little later to rebuild
Business vs IT (or is it “and”)
Vooral LOB gedreven
The return of Sybase. Everybody needs a lake
Business vs IT
Vooral LOB gedreven
Onderste twee blijven dus 3rd parties
The return of Sybase, nieuwe SDA adapter
S3 kunnen direct aan Sybase gehangen worden
Tijdens de roadmap sessie ging het niet over de roadmap u bepaalt de richting!
Wat blijkt, er is wel een roadmap. Wordt een volledig DWH in de toekomst (waarschijnlijk) klant bepaald
SAC is een essentieel onderdeel van Cloud DWH
Roambi = dood
Mooie dingen, eat that PowerBI (prompts) although limited
Mooie dingen, eat that PowerBI (prompts) although limited
Mooie nieuwe plaat Application Designer is GA
Dat is al een serieuze hoeveelheid functionaliteit! Kan het on prem vervangen al? Zeker voor sommige scenario’s
They fixed the model creation misery!
The cloud runs better with SAC
En hoe gaan we die SACs dan weer integreren? SACS of SACS?
En hoe gaan we die SACs dan weer integreren? SACS of SACS?
Replicatie? Hoe dan?
Andere content?
Hoe gaan we dat nou repliceren?
Das best veel
Niet alle SF in 1x dus! SF heeft embedded SAC is dus een tikje overdreven
The return of on premise.
We praten vaak over hybrid scenarios. SAP wil wel afscheid nemen van on prem, maar dat willen de klanten niet!
Do they really?
Interoperablity = BACK!
Misschien niet zo handig, veel klanten vinden het word niet zo tof na het hele discovery designer debacle
Kern: on prem BOBJ gebruikers moeten naar SAC
Hoe? Integratie met Universes en WEBI
Wow! Geen replicatie voor al die op Universe gebaseerde bronnen!
Weer een hybrid case…
People, is this Lumira Designer of Discovery?
No, that’s Webi!
De fransen blijven knokken tegen SAC
Zelfs de licenses zijn hybrid
Statement of direction
En weer cloud en hybrid
Statement of direction
We beginnen wederom met Cloud!
Jasscha gaat hier verder op in
Data Warehouse as a source for BW/4HANA. Business models move to IT
Statement of direction
Statement of direction
Some new stuff, technical content is there!
Veel dezelfde topics als vorig jaar, is de focus wellicht teveel op Cloud Data Warehouse?
CDS views voor nieuwe technical content
Is that all? Jasscha gaat hier verder op in
What about Data Hub?
Finally it can talk ABAP
And its also in the cloud, with a totally different name
The cloud strikes again!
