SAP BW/4HANA Implementation Service
Fast System Implementation is Realized by In-memory DB Optimized Design Template and Cloud Computing
Break Off from Conventional BI ConstraintsIn the past, BI was implemented by analysis requirements for users above middle management, and as for the data granularity,performance requirements were satisfied by summarizing of data. For this reason, there was no flexibility to add new analysis items, change analysis items or drill down to obtain detailed data, which made system improvement costs more expensive.On the other hand, SAP BW/4HANA Template, which is a combination of 1.Extraction function of SAP ERP’s standard transaction data and 2.Pre-defined SAP BW/4HANA based backend and frontend templates, allow advanced analysis as well as change requests from users flexibly.Therefore, the design is to retain detailed data in a simple manner to address the changes of user needs speedily and flexibly, sothat analysis requirements can be more sophisticated. It makes possible to satisfy the data granularity required by practicalbusiness users as well.
SAP BW/4HANA Template is a solution developed for upgrading SAP BW (Business Information Warehouse) or migrating SAP BW to SAP HANA®, or for companies which plan to implement SAP BW4/HANA for the first time.By utilizing this template, ABeam Consulting realizes advanced data analysis in short time and at low cost to support companies to further increase their BI capabilities.
