What is SAP Data Intelligence?

SAP Data Intelligence aims to transform distributed data sprawls into vital data insights, to deliver innovation at scale. It is a data management solution that connects, discovers, enriches, and orchestrates disjointed data assets into actionable business insights at enterprise scale. It enables the creation of data warehouses from heterogeneous enterprise data, management of IoT data streams, and facilitates scalable machine learning.

We are currently conducting a feasibility study to which extent DI is a candidate for a company wide data integration platform. The current focus is seamless and simple data source integration in SAP and non-SAP environments. After extraction relevant data is stored on a DI based data lake for consumption of analytics and reporting applications. Data lakes are kept up to date by real time delta updates from the sources.
  • Integration with SAP sources
  • Real time source data access
  • State of the art UI and tooling
Cons
  • Enterprise readiness features
  • Overall solution stability
  • Reusables for data lake management
  • More detailed monitoring layers for external access
It draws its strength by being part of the SAP ecosystem. Easy integration with SAP sources of all kinds without a lot of custom development or the need for additional adapters. It has some room for improvement in case it’s used for data integration. While the procurement of data is quite extensive, the provision of data to consumers can still be improved.

Hav]ing used SAP Data Intelligence for 4 before coming to Harvest that I've continued to support other users for another year after advising for its installation, it's been widely used across departments like marketing, mostly to gather responsive departmental data easily.
  • Processing of data has been so convenient thanks to SAP Data Intelligence.
  • Convenient to use as comes with in built learning machine.
  • Manages and stores a wide variety of data even raw.
Cons
  • None that I can talk of.
Really works fine on analyzing of data and processing which have been of really great help since I was at my first company.

Scenario:
Landscape Transformation from Oracle to SAP S/4 HANA.
SAP Migration Cockpit used for Data Migration.
Used Staging Table approach to Migrate the data and create the relevant data in the Target S/4 HANA System.
SAP Data Intelligence was used to bring data from the source system to SAP Migration Cockpit.
The data was extracted from the Oracle Database in the Source by creating SAP Data Intelligence Pipelines or Graphs and then updated in the Staging Table for the corresponding Migration Objects in the SAP Migration Cockpit.
  • Simplified design techniques available to create integration using pipelines.
  • Extensive possibilities of data integration by using various operators provided.
  • Data Lake provided, which can be a good option to be used as a staging area.
Cons
  • Link to ABAP system can be improved.
  • Debug option can be further simplified or made more user friendly.

Data Intelligence is the perfect tool to be used in such scenarios where source is a non SAP System.

We use SAP Data Intelligence to build data pipelines to streamline the processes of data cleaning and transformation which further helps to identify key insights and create dashboards. It helps us to easy consolidate data from varied sources and automate data processes which further helps us to easy deploy ML models in order to get data-driven solutions for specific usecases.
  • Automate workflows
  • Deploy Machine Learning Models
  • Data Visualization
  • Data Management and Monitoring
Cons
  • Faced issues while testing our lower environments with new patches
  • Installations process is quite complex, chances of mistakes are high
  • Hard to perform operations on semi structured data
  • Performance gets slow while handling large datasets
It is well suited to augment data from multiple resources (including APIs) and automate workflows. Dashboard helps in easy analyse and monitoring the key KPIs. However, advance visualization features are missing.
Further, deploying ML models with ease is a plus. Also, its multiple language support ( Python, R etc) helps user to easy write code.

We use SAP Data Intelligence mainly for Data visualization, Export data, and Data filtering. We use it across all our departments and it has enabled us to streamline all our critical processes. It is a robust tool for controlling and assessing data that helps us in making informed decisions. Overall it has been beneficial for our business outcomes.
  • Data Visualization
  • Report generation is convenient.
  • Data can be easily exported to excel sheets.
Cons
  • It is not the best when it comes to scalability.
  • Lack of provision for a free trial.
  • Customer service is not up to the mark.
SAP Data Intelligence has served us for several purposes mainly for processing big data. It has allowed us to bridge the gap between the Information technology and Business side within our organization. It can easily work with both structured and unstructured data. Analytical solutions like reporting and auditing have been made hassle-free due to SAP Data Intelligence.
