We use BW/4HANA for analytics and reporting. It is used across the enterprise. Our initial deployment has been across finance with a view to migrate our classical BW environment over to BW/4HANA. Our currently classical BW has reached end of life and we need to commence the migration over to BW/4HANA soon.
  • Better preformance
  • Ability to perform hybrid data modelling
  • Better integration to non-SAP data sources
  • Simplified data modelling
  • Still has reliance of ABAP stack.
  • Not all exception aggregation conditions are pushed down to HANA
  • BW-IP should be included in offering as it was previously.
  • BW workspaces could improved, has huge potential.
Hybrid data modelling is for sure a great strength. The ability to stick to traditional data modelling as well as modelling using HANA Calculation Views locks huge potential. Having access to multiple HANA native engines and features means less reliance on ABAP stack. All this whilst still leveraging traditional BW features e.g. master data infoObjects, time-dependencies, etc.

About SAP BW/4HANA

With SAP BW/4HANA, IT organizations can become the hero, providing business users with real-time analytics, tailored analytical applications, and intelligent automated support for business processes based on data from SAP and non-SAP line-of-business applications.
