    SAP Datasphere is well suited for scalable cloud based data integration scenarios which also opens up the doors for AI driven insights which are much harder to achieve with on-prem data warehouses. Considering the licensing model of SAP Datasphere being based on consumption driven capacity units cost can be a big consideration for organizations with large volumes of data that can be a pre-requisite for data mining and AI use cases. So this can be a bottleneck or not so well adopted scenario for SAP Datasphere.

    Cons
    SAP
    • Need to have a good understanding of the SAP ecosystem to implement and use it.
    • From a cost perspective it can be little bit on the expensive side for enterprises.
    • The platform is still new and hence more subjected to bugs. But support for it is always good from the SAP team.

    Datasphere can come with its own challenges which can feel like a mountain to get over. However, once one has an understanding of how the product works it becomes easier to use. Once the time is spent to get it setup and working correctly very little is needed to keep it running smoothly. Its a great tool it just takes time to learn.

    SAP has suggested that BW 7.5 will be sunset soon. Usability is good in SAP BW Modernization. Instead of going with other non-SAP tools, staying with SAP will be suitable for existing users. Across the board, many of them are moving to DataSphere.
