Difference between Data warehouse BO and SAP BO

Dear All,
can anyone let me know the difference b/n data warehosue Business Objects and SAP Business Objects.....and aslo can u suggest which is the better future among these two tools....
explaining in detailed view is highly appreciable!
Thanks & Regards,
V.Ravi Teja

Hello,
in the SAP BusinessObjects portfolio there is no solution for a DWH. A DWH is a DataStore based on a Database technology like Oracle. SAP BusinessObjects doesnt have its own Database. SAP BusinessObjects Tools support loads of Databases like Oracle, DB2, MS SQL etc.
What the SAP BusinessObjects portfolio has is an ETL tool to create a DWH - called "DataServices". Also there is a tool for creating a virtual DWH - called "Data Federator"
SAP has its own Datastore for a DWH - called "SAP Business Warehouse" (SAP BW)
Hope this helps.
Regards
-Seb.

  • Difference Between Data Services Designer and Data Services Workbench

    Hello All,
    I am new to Data Services .
    What is the difference between Data Services Designer and Data Services Workbench .
    Am bit confused in the above two .
    Please help me to understand the same.
    Thanks in advance.

    Workbench is used to create, display and modify the objects. It will display the source table data and we can see the logs of the job which we have executed and also we can see the status of a job. In bods 4.2 you can design the dataflow in workbench in previous release we don’t have that option but designer contains debugging option, you can write scripts,  it will support all databases; these option are not available in workbench. for more information refer this document:

  • What is difference between data base structure and stucure  in program

    what is difference between data base structure and stucure  declared in program  level . can  explain cleary if knows

    Hi,
    Data base structure is global decalaration you can reffer this structure in any of your developments, when ever you cahange this structure the changes automatically will get updated in all the programs.
    coming to structures in program it is local to your program only, if you want to change the structure again you have to open the program and do the necessary changes.
    Reward if useful.

  • What is the difference between data base objects and runtime objects

    What is the difference between data base objects and runtime objects

    Hi raja,
    data base objects means u can have the presence of these objects in the database.So the tables,searchhelps,structures,lockobjects comes under these ones.
    Runtime objects are created and destroyed after the program ends, any changes we make to them are temporary only.

  • Difference  between data selection period and personal seletion period

    Hi
    Experts ,
    ples Expline ,
    Difference  between data selection period and personal seletion period. to Data screening .

    Data selection period means
    For example if u given any period,
    here we are checking whether data is valid in this period.
    Personal selection period means
    we are checking whether person is valid in a given period.
    Example is:
    For example if the employee resigned in a company on 15th of month.
    He can get the salary only at the end of month it means his data is avilable upto end of month.
    But when you consider his status from 16th to end of month
    the person is not available.
    So when u given date(16th to end of month) in data selection period is showing that person data is avilable.
    But when mention that date in person selection period it is showing no person is avilable.
    if useful

    Regards

    Hi
    you can use filter on date having type KF also...in case of YTD and MTD...there are no. of ways to calculate the diff betn two date if they are Char or KF...but the context in which we use them are different....
    Like in sales query creation date is always a char type..because user want drill down and filter restriction..other dates are not required as nav. they are used in KF

  • Difference between data logic operation and business operation

    hiii, DI core, main component of DI API, performs all <b>data logic operaton</b> where as OBServer.dll perform <b>bussiness logic operation</b> at database level...
    what is the difference between these operations????

    Hi Nirdesh,
    The DI API offers a number of objects/methods that allow you to access the information stored in the database (tables) by using objects.
    The DI API is represented by the SboBobCOM.dll, in your code you only add a reference to this COM dll. This dll offerst the objects/methods you can access.
    The SbobobCOM.dll is using the OBServer.dll, this dll contains all the business logic rules (like for example: you cannot delete a BusinessPartern if it has already some documents created) that will control all actions you are trying to do with the DI API methods/objects.
    You have a schema representing both dlls in the DI API help file -> Introduction -> DI API components section.
    Regards

  • Difference between Data Grid and Data Forms

    Hi all,
    What is the difference between data grid and data forms.

    Data entry forms are pre defined and are generally used to manually input data into reporting (financial statement) schedules.
    They can also be used for reviewing purposes and it gives users a presentable / and consistent format to view data in Hyperion.
    Data grids are the equivalent of pivot tables in excel. It should be used for ad hoc purposes to view / analyse data in whatever form you choose. The user has the flexibility to choose what they see in the rows, columns and page dimensions.
    One of the main differences between data entry forms and data grids is that you can’t export data grids to excel whereas you can with data entry forms. Other differences are:
    1. Run consolidation, translation, promotion from data grids but not in data entry forms.
    2. You can link other data entry forms to a data entry form
    3. Data entry forms offer greater formatting options than in data grids i.e. colours, fonts, bold, italics.
    At the end of the day, they are similar and there is no reason why you can’t have (use) both. It all depends on your local needs on how best you use both.
    I hope above information helps.

    /message/1383908#1383908 [original link is broken]
    Upgrade from BW 3.5 to BW 7.0 (BI 7.0)
    Some features of BI 7 are
    1. In Infosets now you can include Infocubes as well.
    2. The Remodeling transaction helps you add new key figure and characteristics and handles historical data as well without much hassle. This is only for info cube.
    3. The BI accelerator (for now only for infocubes) helps in reducing query run time by almost a factor of 10 - 100. This BI accl is a separate box and would cost more. Vendors for these would be HP or IBM.
    4. The monitoring has been imprvoed with a new portal based cockpit. Which means you would need to have an EP guy in ur project for implementing the portal !
    5. Search functionality hass improved!! You can search any object. Not like 3.5
    6. Transformations are in and routines are passe! Yess, you can always revert to the old transactions too.
