Overview of SAP Cloud Platform Data Enrichment
Data Enrichment industrializes the use of third-party data for enterprise applications and makes it economical for you to find, procure, and consume relevant datasets in a timely fashion. Data enrichment allows the following:
Single Record Enrichment
- On-demand data from data providers that is pre-cabled with SAP applications, eliminating data setup and integration costs
- Matching of external data in context with the master data that’s already available with you
- Central linking of external data providers to SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud or on-premise applications (SAP or non-SAP)
Mass Enrichment
- Enrich multiple master data records in bulk
- Load clean business partner data upfront to reduce data quality expenses
Updates from Data Providers
- Keep the master data up-to-date by managing changes from third-party data providers
