Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Data Foundation Behind SAP’s AI Strategy
Q: But how do you actually get data into BDC and make it available for consumption, including non-SAP sources?
Data ingestion begins with ticketing in Calibra to designate ownership, followed by onboarding into primary data products. Depending on the data source, teams choose blue field SAP-managed products, brownfield reuse of BW data, or greenfield ingestion via Databricks, with ongoing governance and a move toward a unified data product catalog.
The Data Foundation Behind SAP’s AI Strategy
Q: Let's get a little bit more practical here. How does the workflow and lifecycle look from ingestion to consumption in Calibra and Datasphere?
Data products start with an owner, then a primary data product is onboarded into the Business Data Cloud (BDC) where an intelligent content package is activated. Pipelines are managed centrally, and metadata is published to Calibra, enabling cross-space sharing and governance across SAP and non-SAP data sources.
The Data Foundation Behind SAP’s AI Strategy
Q: So, would you say that you did have a single source of truth, but it was very vast and very complex?
Yes, the single source of truth existed in a massive BW environment, but the complexity and breadth of data across SAP applications and custom tools created bottlenecks and trust challenges, which motivated the shift toward a data-product-based approach with clearer ownership and governance.
SAP BW Modernization: Migrating to SAP Business Data Cloud
Q: What are the main modernization options for BW on-prem customers, and how does SAP suggest they proceed?
Two common paths are lift-and-shift to BW PCE with Data Product Generator to reuse BW artifacts in BDC, or Greenfield building native solutions in the latest BDC semantics; the choice depends on the customer's landscape, hardware considerations, and future needs, with guidance provided through an assessment.
SAP BW Modernization: Migrating to SAP Business Data Cloud
Q: Can you share insights into why customers are deciding to modernize with SAP Business Data Cloud?
Customers are seeking more timely, richer insights and want to harness AI/ML capabilities; many are at end-of-maintenance points for BW, BPC, or BusinessObjects, making modernization a practical step to preserve investments while adopting newer, scalable cloud-native capabilities.
