OWB R1 and Asynchronous CDC

Can I use OWB R1 with Oracle's asynchronous Change Data Capture feature to provide a real-time data warehousing solution?

Hi Davis
There is a general cookbook on CDC here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/db/10g/pdf/twp_cdc_cookbook_0206.pdf
And a useful OWB/CDC illustration here:
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2006/04/14/asynchronous-hotlog-distributed-change-data-capture-and-owb-paris/
The setup is very much administrative and an expert would be very useful to cover the cookbook for OWB and CDC.
Cheers
David

  • Asynchronous CDC on a Logical Standby database (10gR2)

    Hi,
    Question:
    Is it possible to setup Asynchronous CDC on a Logical Standby database (10gR2)?
    Background:
    In our Oracle Data Warehouse environment where we need to provide up-to-the-second "operational" reporting against a Logical Standby database (10gR2 Data Guard) as the production application database owners do not permit direct reporting against the Primary database (10gR2); we also have a Data Warehouse database (10gR2) that requires more sophisticated/summary reporting which is updated at less regular intervals from the Logical Standby database.
    The complication is that although the Logical Standby database will serve the purpose of a 'syncronized' version of the Primary database by giving us a current-state view of the data, we require more detailed change data capture on certain tables to audit change history between the points we extract data for the Data Warehouse.
    The DBAs do not want to set-up Asynchronous CDC on the Primary database, so is it possible to setup Asynchronous CDC on a Logical Standby database?
    Anyone done it before?
    Any issues?
    Any alternatives?
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    As far as I know it is but it would be easier, and more robust, to just create a second logical standby and feed them both from the primary.
    Logical Data Guard and Streams are essentially just two implementations of the same technology written by the same team of developers.

  • Call mode types: Synchronous and Asynchronous in ABAP process for a chain

    Hello,
    I have a doubt about the call mode type for a abap type process in a process chain. It has two options:
    1.Synchronous
    2.Asynchronous
    Would like to know the diferences between these two; advantages and disadvantages of using them.
    Thanks in advance for your help...

  • Re : what is diffrent Between  Synchronies and   Asynchronies  process

    Hi ,
          what is diffrent between Synchronies and   Asynchronies  process in  session Method and call Transcation method  pls give one Example...
    Thanks
    Arief .S

    Synchronus data processing is that in which the program calling the update task waits for the update work process to finish the update before it continues processing.
    In Asynchronus update the callng program does not wait for update work process to finish the update and continues as normal.
    A BDC done with sessions is always synchronus.
    A BDC with call transaction is by default asynchronus
    unless you define it explicitly as
    call transaction 'XXXX' ...... update 'S'.
    ( If you donot define update option it is defaulted to "A" ).
    The update method is of importance when one transaction locks data which may be required by a subsequent transaction . The subsequent transaction will fail if data is locked from previous one. An example would be you are creating sales order for same material in succession ( with asynchronus update ). Quite likely that some of transactions would fail due to material locked.
    For large volume of data Call Transaction will be faster but you have no restart capability here. Suppose from 1000 transactions 100 fails . You will have to run the BDC program again exclusing the ones which wrere successful. However with session method you have the option to process the error transactions again in SM35 . So if you are sure that errors will not occur use call transaction else use session method.

    Autolog CDC could be one possible solution. It uses a feature of the downstream capture.

  • User exits-- also ---synchronous and asynchronous struc..

    dear all
    pls. let me know the basics of user exits. i have gone thro williams iam unable to follow. does it require abap knowledge. i sincerely request one and all (experts) to let me know about user exits. it seems very imp as per interviews.
    also what is synchronous and asynchronous structures whats the difference. can anybody share knowledge on this.
    thanks in advance
    regards

    Dear Sekhar,
    Please find the info regarding User-Exit's in the following links:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bf/ec07a25db911d295ae0000e82de14a/frameset.htm
    http://www.sap-img.com/abap/a-short-tutorial-on-user-exits.htm
    Re: doubt on user exits
    user exits and Badis
    User exits is the enhancements provided by SAP
    You can use them in transactions. Each transaction will have user exits.
    If you want to use your own requirements by making your coding while the transaction is run you can use user exits.
    For example if you want to run the MRP in MD02 specific to MRP controller you can user exit.
    Please also refer the document below.
    USEREXIT
    Userxits allow us to add our own functionality to SAP standard program
    without modifying it . These are implemented in the form of subroutines and hence are also known as FORM EXITs. The userexits are generally collected in includes and attached to the standard program by the SAP.
    All Userexits start with the word USEREXIT_...
    FORM USEREXIT_..
    z..
    ENDFORM.
    The problem lies in finding the correct userexit and how to find it if one exists for the purpose. Once the correct userexit is found the necessary customer code is inserted in the customer include starting with the z.. in the form routine.
    e.g. USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE
    Certain application like SD still provide this form of enhancement using userexit but this practice is no longer being followed for newer extensions instead they are using EXITs which come bundeled in enhancement packages . Neverthiless existing USEREXITS will be supported by SAP an all the newer versions of SAP.
    HOW TO FIND USEREXITS
    Userexits can be found in number of ways:
    1) To find userexits in SD module , goto object navigator(SE80) and select
    development class from the list and enter VMOD in it. All of the userexits in SD are contained in the development class VMOD. Press enter and you will find all the includes which contain userexits in SD for different functions like PRICING, ORDER PROCESSING etc. Select the userexit according to the requirement and read the comment inserted in it and start coding .
    Some examples of userexits in SD(SALES & DISTRIBUTION ) are:
    1)ADDING OF NEW FIELDS IN PRICING
    In Pricing in SD the fields on the basis of which pricing is done are derived from the FIELD CATALOG which is a structure KOMG .This structure is used to transfer transaction data to the pricing procedure in SD and is also known as communication structure.This structure KOMG consists of two tables KOMK for Header related fields and KOMP for item related fields. The fields which are not in either of the two tables KOMK and KOMP cannot be used in pricing .Sometimes a need arises when the pricing is to be based on some other criteria which is not present in the form of fields in either of the two tables. This problem can be solved by using USEREXITS which are provided for pricing in SD. Pricing takes place both when the SALES ORDER ( Transaction VA01) is created as well as when INVOICING ( Transaction VF01) is done.Hence SAP provides 2 userexits ,one for sales order processing which is
    USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP or
    USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMK
    Depending upon which table (KOMK or KOMP) the new fields were inserted we use either of the above two userexits.These userexits are found in include MV45AFZZ of the standard SAP sales order creation program SAPMV45A.
    In the case of userexit which will be called when invoicing is done ,these
    are provided in the include RY60AFZZ which is in the standard SAP program SAPMV45A. The name of the userexits are same. i.e
    USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP or
    USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMK
    These userexits are used for passing the data from the communication structure to the pricing procedure, for this we have to fill the newely created field in the communication structure KOMG for this we fill the code in the above userexit using the MOVE statement after the data that has to be passed is taken from the database table by using the SELECT statement. The actual structure which is visible in these userexits and which is to be filled for that particular field is TKOMP or TKOMK.
    Before the coding for these userexits is done ,it is necessary to create a new field in either of the two tables KOMK or KOMP .For this purpose includes are provided in each of them .
    To create the field in header data(KOMK) the include provided is KOMKAZ
    and to create the field in item data(KOMP) the include provided is KOMPAZ.
    One possible example for the need of creating new fields can be e.g. Frieght to be based upon transportation zone ,for this no field is available in field catalog and hence it can be created in KOMK and then above userexits can be used to fill the transportation data to it.
    2)The other method of finding userexit is to find the word USEREXIT in the
    associated program of the transaction for which we want to determine userexit using SE38.
    3)The other method of finding userexits is to find the include in case of SD/MM applications where the userexits are located ,this can be found in the SAP reference IMG generally in the subfolder under SYSTEM MODIFICATION.
    Some other examples of userexits in SD are:
    USEREXIT_NUMBER_RANGE
    This userexit is used to assign a different internal document number to the
    sales order(VA01) when it is created depending on some criteria like a different SALES ORGANIZAION(VKORG) .
    USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE
    This userexit is used to insert the ABAP code which will be called when
    the document (sales order VA01) is just about to be saved.This userexit is used generally for custom checks on different fields , to display some information before the order will be saved or for making changes to certain fields before the sales order will be saved.
    Exits & Enhancements
    There are mainly six types of EXITs in sap which have been collected in the form of enhancement packages and attached to standard code in SAP.
    These are different from USEREXIT in the way that they are implemented
    in the form of FUNCTIONs while in USEREXITS we use form routines for their implementation. These are also sometimes known as function exits .
    These start from the word EXIT_ followed by the program name and then followed by a three digit number.
    e.g. EXIT_SAPMV45A_002
    This exit is found in SD in enhancement V45A0002.
    TYPES OF EXITS
    1)MENU EXITS
    2)FUNCTION EXITS
    3)TABLE EXITS
    4)SCREEN EXITS
    5)KEYWORD EXITS
    6)FIELD EXITS
    We use SAP transactions CMOD and SMOD to manage exits. Before implementing an exit , it is required to create the project by using CMOD
    selecting the enhancement e.g. V45A0002 and selecting the component
    (one which fulfills our need) i.e the exit which will be implemented in SMOD and after coding has been done the project has to be activated.
    An exit can be coded only once.
    FUNCTION EXITS
    These are used to add functionality through ABAP code . These start from the word EXIT_programname_NNN ending in a 3 digit number. No access code is required to implement any tupe of exit including function exits.
    The function exits are called from the standard SAP program in the form
    of ABAP statement
    CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION 'NNN'
    This is in contrast to USEREXITs where PERFORM statement is used to call
    the required userexit.
    To implement the FUNCTION EXITs first of all the project is created and a suitable enhancement package is selected and from its compnents the function exit to be implemented is selected and on double clicking it the exit code will appear in ABAP EDITOR(se38) where a Z include will be found and the customer code should be entered in this include.
    e.g.
    ADDING A DEFAULT SOLD-TO-PARTY in Sales Order Creation
    To show a default sold-to-party in this field when the user creates a sales order (VA01) we can use a function exit .This function exit is located in enhancement no V45A0002 . Before we can choose the exit we have to create a project in CMOD after that enter V45A0002 in the enhancement field and click on the components . In the components you will see the exit EXIT_SAPMV45A_002 . This exit is used for our purpose.
    Double clicking on this exit will takes us to function builder (SE37) . This
    function exit has one exporting parameters and two importing parameters, we are interested in exporting parameter which is E_KUNNR of type KNA1-KUNNR i.e if we move the desired customer name to this structure(E_KUNNR) it will be shown in the field as the default value when we create the sales order. This function also contains a customer include ZXVVA04 . This include will be used to write our custom code .
    Double clicking on this include and it will prompt us that this include does not exists do you want to create this object ,select yes and the include will be created .In this include we can write our own code that will fill the field E_KUNNR.
    e.g. E_KUNNR = 301.
    Activate the include and Activate the project. Now when ever the SALES ORDER will be created , sold-to-party field will come up with a predefined customer .
    FIELD EXITS
    The field exits are managed,created,activated through program RSMODPRF. The field exit is associated with a data element existing in ABAP dictionary and hence to the screen field using that data element.
    The format of field exit is :
    FIELD_EXIT_dataelement_A-Z or 0-9
    If a particular screen and program name is not specified than the field exit will effect all the screens containing that data element.
    The function module associated with field exit shows two parameters
    INPUT and OUTPUT. Input parameter contains the data passed to the field exit when the field exit was invoked by the R/3 , We can write our own code to change the output parameter depending upon our requirements.
    Before the field exit can have any effect the system profile parameter
    ABAP/FIELDEXIT in all the application servers should be set to YES
    ABAP/FIELDEXIT = YES.

    Naveen.

  • SQL 2012 Synchronous and Asynchronous database limit?

    Hi,
    How many DB's can be configured as Synchronous commit and Asynchronous commit in SQL 2012 Always On Availability group in a DR scenario for SP 2013?
    Thanks 
    Mohammed Asif Kazi

    Maximum number of availability groups and availability databases per computer: The actual number of databases and availability groups you can put on a computer (VM or physical) depends on the hardware and workload, but there
    is no enforced limit. Microsoft has extensively tested with 10 AGs and 100 DBs per physical machine. Signs of overloaded systems can include, but are not limited to, worker thread exhaustion, slow response times for AlwaysOn system views and DMVs, and/or stalled
    dispatcher system dumps. Please make sure to thoroughly test your environment with a production-like workload to ensure it can handle peak workload capacity within your application SLAs. When considering SLAs be sure to consider load under failure conditions
    as well as expected response times.

  • Difn Betn synchronous and asynchronous procsesing an update

    Hi gurus.
    Can any body tell me Difn Betn synchronous and asynchronous procsesing an update .
    Regards ,
    Mahesh

    hi,
    For Update you have
    A - asynchronus - does not wait for next update in the queue
    S - Synchronus - waits until the previous update is completed before a new request is considered
    L - Local update - Uses a different work process to trigger call function in update task.
    In synchronus method until one record process takes place into database next record will not be processed.
    In asynchronus immedate updation of data into database table.
    Check this link for more detailed information:
    http://fuller.mit.edu/tech/sync_asynchronous.html
    'A', 'S' and 'L' are the update modes in CALL transaction method.
    I will give you a simple example to explain this.
    Suppose that there are 30 records in total and an error has occured in the 5th record.
    In asynchronous, update is done for every 30 records while in synchronous one,
    update is done only upto the 4th record.
    So only after the record in the fifth one is eliminated, remaining others are processed.
    Have a look at this URL from SAP Help:

  • Meaning of synchronous and Asynchronous in BDC

    Hi Guys,
    1) What is a maning of synchronous and Asynchronous in BDC, what is a diffrence betwwen both?
    2) Can you please provide  ABAP OOPS real time question and answer?
    Thanks
    Jigar

    in simple,
    Synchronous:
    - COMMIT WORK AND WAIT:
    -System waits until the database updation is completed.....then, system continues to execute after the piece.....if some thing wrong in updation, then, the rest piece do not executes!!
    -here, we get sy-subrc return value, so, some times, we can write rest prog. based on this retun value, either sucess or failure, like in some scenarios, we write CALL TRANSACTION with 'S', other wise its normally, Asynchronous!!
    - takes more time
    -mostly, batch input
    -example, say, there is Materail doc posting and associated accouting doc posting.....so, if material doc is successful, then only acc. doc will be get posted
    Asynchronous:
    -COMMIT WORK
    -does not depend on the updation
    -quick relatively
    -mostly CALL TRANSACTION
    - no return code
    for further, pls. go thru SDN

  • Difference between synchronous and asynchronous

    Hi, i´m doing a t01 syncbo... what is the difference between synchronous and asynchronous?
    What is better for syncbo t01, and for syncbo s01?
    Thanks,

    Hi
    There are two options available:
    Synchronus in which the data is exchanged while the mobile is online. The mobile sends the messages to the middleware and gets the response there and then, while it is online.
    ASynchronus in which the mobile sends the messages to the middleware and goes offline. The responses are calculated and stored in the outbox. When the mobile again comes online and syncs, it gets the response messages.
    The choice depends actually on the type of the syncBO, like if there is an Order being created on the mobile and its approval (which will come from the backend) is needed, most of the time immediately. This SyncBO must be Synchronus.
    The other data, to which response is not immediately needed can be made as Syncronus.
    The choice has serious performance considerations, So it should be made wisely.
    Please ask if you need more information.
    Thanks
