SAP Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA returns to openSAP

In 2014, over 20,000 learners signed up to learn about SAP Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA on openSAP. This April, we’re bringing you an updated version of this course, SAP Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA (Update Q2/2016), with an additional module delivering updates on SAP Business Warehouse 7.5 powered by SAP HANA.

To support your company’s analysis, reporting and other business intelligence functions, a data warehouse acts as a central entry point and single point of truth for various data sources. It consolidates and harmonizes data models and stores data for historic analysis. SAP Business Warehouse (BW), a long standing and well adopted enterprise data warehouse application, offers various integrated services supporting for example to build data models, extract load and transform data and helps to operate the data warehousing processes efficiently.

Introducing SAP HANA as a database for SAP BW was a major breakthrough and tremendously improved many core functionalities. As the next milestone in SAP Data Warehousing Strategy it offers many simplifications and optimizations in the core areas of SAP BW.

SAP Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA (Update Q2/2016) will introduce the renewed concepts and possibilities of SAP Business Warehouse powered by SAP HANA. This course introduces the major guiding points and semantics of a data warehouse, demonstrating them in a business scenario. With this course, you will learn and experience the latest developments with SAP BW 7.4 and 7.5 as well as opportunities for real-time data integration and agile data modelling approaches which haven’t been possible before. With SAP BW, reporting and planning can run on the same platform, which will be demonstrated with the optimizations with SAP HANA. You will see how data can be consumed via different modern front-end tools and understand the concepts of how SAP HANA helps speed up data analysis.

The course starts from April 6 on openSAP and enrollment is now open. Join openSAP and find out more about the value of running SAP Business Warehouse on SAP HANA.
