Written by Jeffrey Yefsky | 11/18/16 5:58 AM

Today’s complex information formats that reside in company servers grow more diverse by the day. Your information systems need to organize all of your data sources, whether structured or unstructured, into one coherent and accessible whole. The solution is data federation using SAP BusinessObjects, which generates a virtual view of all subsidiary data sources and provides rapid response times for business intelligence queries to the data warehouse and data marts.

SAP BusinessObjects works with most business' infrastructures as a universal solution to accelerate multi-source business intelligence query performance and complements ETL tools. Put the SAP BusinessObjects data federator at the core of your business intelligence technology for the optimal solution for your enterprise.


SAP BusinessObjects Provides Fast Data Access and Synchronization

Extracting and organizing the valuable information held within disparate data sources now has to respond as near to real-time as possible. SAP BusinessObjects delivers rapid data access and synchronization from three to eight sources or even more. The high-performance, on-demand access of this software reduces query times by several orders of magnitude, to seconds, while improving data quality and raising report-authoring productivity.

BusinessObjects assists enterprises that have assets such as legacy data systems that may have been operational for many years or perhaps were the added during a merger or acquisition. BusinessObjects facilitates universal access, with flexible data integration bringing more utility to your information than you ever had before.

The result is universal high-performance business intelligence, with on-demand access to real-time delivery of trusted information. This set of tools delivers rapid data integration that results in getting the right answers to business intelligence queries, in the right place, at the right time.

SAP BusinessObjects Compliments Existing ETL Tools

SAP BusinessObjects compliments existing extract, transform, and load (ETL) application integration tools. These extended tools enable customers to construct data warehouses and data marts that integrate existing data and make new sources available.

BusinessObjects gives workers rapid access to accurate business intelligence; existing data warehouses and back-end data integration capabilities that can integrate with the latest agile, real-time data access capabilities. This application integration system means that developers gain valuable productivity while giving users improved access to business intelligence.

IT staff can use SAP BusinessObjects Data Federator to quickly bring together ETL-consolidated data with other new, volatile, and fine-grain sources that have data not found in the data warehouse or data marts. The result is scalability and flexibility as federated data storage works ETL tools harder and smarter than ever before.
