How to create Universe using multiple datasource?

We have a requirement to create a Universe that connects to multiple databases.
We we know the limitation of Universe " It can connect to only one datasource"
We have some data that resides on DB2 table. We have some data that reside on SQL Server table. One way of doing this would be to create two universe, one that connects to SQL Server and one that connects to DB2. Then create a report that synchronize the data from the two universe. But performance wise, this will not be a good option.
The option is layered Universe. But it has its own limitation that the two datasource must of of same type. Correct me if I am wrong.
Is there a way I can fulfill the requirements? Please post any links to documentation if there is any.
Thanks.

Hi,
For your purpose, I suggest that you use Data Federator in order to create a multi-source database.
Then Data Federator will build a virtual database based on your different multi-sources.
Last you just have to create a universe based on the Data Federator connection (ODBC or JDBC): the universe will see this connection as a single data sourcewhereas it is a multiple data sources connection.

  • How to create generic master data  datasource .

    How to create generic master data  datasource which utilises ALE change pointers for extraction of master data.

    Hi,
    For any master data lets say, Material Master, for this you need to create a view
    based on your requirement by selecting one or more tables into your view and
    keeping all the required fields in the view as viewfields and go to RS02 create
    generic data source, select the view option as source and put the view, save and
    activate, at the same time set the delta pointer as to whether Numericpointer/date/timestamp..this way you can create a generic DS then transfer the stru. and at the BW side replicate the source system..and so on..
    Hope this helps..
    Assign points if useful.
    Need further info revert..
    Cheers,

    Hi,
    We can use Azure File services to do this, for more information, please have a look at this article:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsazurestorage/archive/2014/05/12/introducing-microsoft-azure-file-service.aspx. The Azure File service exposes file shares using the standard SMB 2.1 protocol. Applications running in Azure can now easily share files between
    VMs using standard and familiar file system APIs like ReadFile and WriteFile.

  • How to create crossword using Adobe captivate

    how to create crossword using Adobe captivate

    OK.  Again I am not needing clarification here.  Did you INSERT the SWF as an animation into the Captivate project? Or, did you keep the SWF as an external file?  If the SWF is external to the main Cp SWF then perhaps it's not working when you publish because the content cannot find the SWF.  If you have made sure that the SWF is definitely in the publish location, check whether or not you have that location set as a trusted location in your Flash Global Security settings.

  • How to make and use customised DataSource

    Hi Gurus. If we are not making cubes for Inventory etc for which DS is already available, how can we create data sources in order to load the desired data in BW.means if Database fields are entirely different
    kind regards
    rajesh

    Hi,
    Customised extractors are called Generic extracters.
    Usage:
    1. When the standard extractors are not supporting the extraction what you need. If SAP does not have a standard extractor for your need to get data from R3, you would have to go for generic extractor.
    2. If you create a custom object say by combining certain base tables in R3 say custom tables ZTAB1 and ZTAB2. These two tables are not SAP provided tables and there will not be any standard extractors. So cases like this you will have to go for generic extractors.
    3. FI-SL requires generic extractors.
    How:
    You have to use RSO2 transaction and you can also set delta based on, one of the three characteristics such as timestamp, calday or pointer (a sequence no).
    once you create it and activate it. The extractor will be available in ROOSOURCE - (table in R3 where all the data sources are available).
    Steps
    Log on sap R/3.
    Step 1. create a table or view for generic extraction in se11.
    Step 2. Goto  t-code RSO2
    Step 3. Here u have to decide whether to extract transaction data or master data attributes or texts.
    Step 4. suppose if u have opted for transaction data,then give name in the column ex:ztd_m(data source name)
    Step 5. select create button,this will take u to another screen.
    Step 6. Here u have to decide from which application component u r extacting data.Ex: SD,MM,..
    Step 7. in this screen u have to fill short disciption,medium,long( these r mandatory).
    Step 8. then U have to Table name or view name which u have created in se11.
    Step 9. I f u want to maintain generic delta then u can select generic delta in top left hand side corner.
    Step 10. in next screen u have to give some field which is primary key.
    step 11. here u to specify whether time stamp or cal day or numeric pointer depending on u r requirement.
    step 12. then u have to specify  whether new status for changed records or additive delta.
            If u choose additive delta ,then u have to load data to infocube or ods object.
            If u choose new status for changed records, then u to load data  to ods object only.
    Step 13. then save it.
    Step 14. then logon to sap bw ,then replicate the data source then as usuall.
