Data Services vs Data Insight

Hello SDN Members,
I'm having difficulties understanding the differences between "Data Services" and "Data Insight".
I google it but still want to see more response about them to propose for a POC kind of work.
Read guides about both not completely satisfied.

With Data Services - you can install Data Quality and Data Integrator (they are merged within the Data Services installation - provided you have the correct keys.).
Data Insight is a seperate installation that is basically a full blown profiling tool that also works with Data Quality. The coolest thing about Data Insight are the reports you can build on top of Data Quality - namely a Truth Query. the truth query uses components of Data Quality (Mainly the Address Engine and Address dictionaries) to give you an accurate profile or 'truth' about you addresses. It can give you the number of good addresses, bad addresses, fixable addresses with Data quality, and unfixable addresses with data quality. It can also determine potential duplicate addresses as well. these statistics are EXTREMELY helpful when doing a data migration or if you merely want to cleanse your data.
If you do not have Data Insight, but you do have data quality - you can do a basic dataflow to cleanse addresses in DQ and then run the Data Quality reports within the Management console in Data Services.

    Hi
    well that makes sense, I did't see the transport files you mentioned in the Transport Queue in the
    ERP system.
    But, in KB 1971036 it is explained that the newer transport files should be imported from
    OSS Note 1916294 after deleting the functions /BODS/BODS. (see attachment)
    Do you think I should import first the transport files from the Admin
    directory, then reimport those from note 1916294 or not ?
    Regards,
    Robert

  • How to install Data Insight on remote server

  • Data Insight - Firstlogic IQ Insight Reporting Engine

    We have Data Insight installed (Windows 2003), occasionally (twice a week) the reporting engine ceases exporting reports.
    Attempting to stop the "Firstlogic IQ Insight Reporting Engine" windows service fails and the only remedy is to restart the server.
    Is anybody else experiencing this?

    Hi Maurice,
    This is a known issue with the data insight reporting engine.  You cannot stop it from within the Windows services console.  The only thing you can do to stop it would be to actually kill the process within Task Manager.  make sure the service is set to startup as Manual then and you can always reboot and then it won't start up on the restart of the server if you want to leave it stopped.
    Hope this help.

  • Does Data Insight 12.1 support VSAM files?

    And how about non relational sources (such as mainframe files) other than flat files? If it doesn't now, is there any plan to add the support in a future release?
    Thanks,
    Larry

    Bev,
    Thanks for your reply! I installed Data Insight 12.1 on my laptop but couldn't find the "EDAOLEDB Provider" you mentioned when creating connections. What is it? Is it something I need to download and install on my own? I can only find some very outdated information about this provider on the Internet (in 1999).

  • Data Insights Dashboard Run Error

    Hello all,
    I have a few column queries defined in Data Insights. I want to make these part of a Dashboard Report. When creating the report I am able to save the report as one would expect. Then, when I try to run the report I get an error message from Data Insights.
    Error: Ora-01843: not a valid month
    None of the column queries are date columns and the only date on the run dashboard report screen is the one to select the date range to return the dashboard summary from. These are drop down, calendar picker entries.
    Any ideas on what the error is or how to get around it?
    Thanks,
    Ryan

    Ryan,
    I think your issue might have to do with the nls_date_format variable that is being used by Oracle Client. It is usually something like this:
    NLS_DATE_FORMAT = "MM/DD/YYYY"
    You might want to check to make sure that the setting is the same everywhere (your desktop, the Query Engine, and  the database where your repository is located).
    My guess is that one of them is using a different data format and that it is causing you to get this error when it tries to generate the dashboard report based date range.

  • How can I edit custom query in Data Insight

    1.  Whenever I click the edit sql query by right clicking on the custom query, the system hangs up and does not proceed further
    2.  Once you create a query without retrieving data results, is it possible to change to retrieve the data and how.
    Thanks -   Mahrukh

    Hi Mahrukh,
    I do not have this issue.  What version of Data Insight are you using?  What database is your metadata repository?  What database is your source data in for the Data Insight query you are writing?  Have you tried double clicking on the custom query - this should open it up for you to be able to edit it as well!
    You should be able to open the query to edit it and either click the return data box or un-check it for any type of query.
    Thanks,
    Denise

  • Cant open table connection in Data insight

    Hi Experts
    I am new to Information steward. when i am trying to add a table or table by name or file it is show a disabled page, i created a connection to IS Repo and also a project in CMC. what i have to do. please help me
    Thanks in advance
    Prasanna kumar

    Welcome to the communtiy of Information Steward users!
    Please make yourself familiar with the concepts and the product tutorials we have created for SAP Information Steward and made available here on the SCN:
    SAP Information Steward 4.x Product Tutorials
    Ther eis e.g. a Getting Started section with a tutorial on Create Connections, Import table metadata, Import file metadata, ...
    Your start was perfect, you have create a user, a project and during installation you have created a IS repository (which stores all the IS project information, rules, calcualted scores etc.).
    But for accessing any data (database tabels or files) to do a profiling or a data quality assesment task, you have to go first to the CMC and in teh Information Steward section you have to define the database connection TO YOUR SOURCE DATABASE (that includes e.g. dbuser, password etc.) and then in the "Add table" screen within the Information Steward you wil see on the left hand side the selection of the already defined database connections that are visible (granted by the administrator) for you as an IS user. There you will be able to select then the tables form the database that you want to add to your project.
    Hint: After you have checked which tables you want to add to your project from that database connection please do not forget to press the "Add to Project" button on th eupper left corner. when you check the tables and just "Close" the window they will not be added.

  • Extracting Data from SAP ERP using BODI/Data Services 4.0

    HI,
    I am trying to extract data from SAP ERP via SAP extractors using BODI/Data Services 4.0.
    I do not have my own ERP system so I am renting remote access from one of the many available on the internet.
    I am able to connect BODI to the ERP system and import the extractors metadata.
    The problem I am experiencing is that when I run job to extract the data I get the following error:
    Vendor-supplied function module <Z_AW_RFC_READ_EXTRACTOR> not found. Ensure that you can execute the function module in SAP via transaction /nSE37.
    How do I create the function? Or is the function a SAP standard function?
    SAP ERP system being used is: ECC6 EHP4
    User has SAP FULL and DEVELOPER authorizations.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.

  • Install of Data Services as active/passive behind F5 load balancers

    I currently have two RedHat 5.5 x86_64 hosts, SAP_DS1 and SAP_DS2, and 1 database, Oracle RAC 11g and 1 F5 LTM load balancer sitting in front of the two hosts. The F5 load balancer VIP is set up as active/passive (fail-over) for the two hosts.

  • Data Services ORA-00942 table does not exist. Source/Target same DB

    Error: u201CORA-00942: table or view does not existu201D
    Source & Target Datastores in same Oracle DB but different User/Schemas.
    I set up the Data Services Tutorial Source & Target Data bases in ONE Oracle DB using a separate User/Schema for the ODS source DB & TARGET Source DB.
    I then created
    - Source datastore for the ODS DB User/schema
    - Target datastore for the TARGET DB user/Schema.
    I have no problem reading flat files & writing to TARGET datastore tables.
    However, when I read the ODS datasttore source table CUSTOMER & write to the TARGET datastore target table CUST_DIM I get an error: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist.
    I can query the table contents from the Data Flow & see the data in the source data & see the empty target table.
    So the tables exists & there is no security issues from the DS Designer.
    I did find note 1189910 - ERROR: Error Description: An error occurred while creating the result data - Data Insight XI
    Cause
    Multiple engines are being run against the same metadata repository.
    Resolution
    Verify that only one engine is being run against a single metadata repository.
    Has anyone seen this error?
    Or has anyone created a 2 data stores on the SAME DB, but to different User/Schemas?
    Thanks
    Jay Roble

    since you are accessing 2 schema which are on same oracle database, DS engine is trying to optimize and generating an INSERT INTO ... SELECT clause. Since its the same DB, DS Engine is doing a implicit linking of the datastores
    you can see the SQL generated from the Designer, drill down into DF, from the Menu select Validation ->Display Optimised SQL
    to disable this implicit linking, right click on the Dataflow, select properties
    in the properties window, unselect the the option "use database links"
