The interplay between SAP Analytics Cloud & SAP Data Warehouse Cloud took & still takes its own evolution path. In a series of two blogs, i would like to give more transparency on this evolution path and lay out where we are. In this blog, we will have a look at the 2022 release highlights. A second blog will cover the first improvements for QRC Q1.2023 & the outlook on 2023:
Evolution of SAP Data Warehouse Cloud Model Consumption in SAP Analytics Cloud – Q1.2023 & Outlook
It is very important to be able to use the generated planning data from SAP Analytics Cloud outside of its origin storage. Analytics & Planning workflows goes hand in hand, the same applies to its data. Releasing this bi-directional integration of both solutions, enables us to truly use SAP Data Warehouse Cloud as the central source of truth to steer your business. You are able to import existing Actuals from SAP Data Warehouse Cloud into SAP Analytics Cloud as a baseline for your planning process. Once finished, you can write back your planning data to ensure it serves all the other analytics use cases that always rely on measuring actuals against plan. You can find more details in this great blog from my Product Management colleague Max Gander.
Moving your existing stories into the Optimized Story Experience is an important move in SAP Analytics Cloud overall. The Optimized Story Experience is THE going-forward story experience, we will be focusing on while driving innovations. Therefore, the support of SAP Data Warehouse Cloud Analytical Datasets & Perspectives is very important and enables our joint customers to get the most out of SAP Analytics Cloud today. There is even more planned through 2023 with features like integration of current analytics designer capabilities and many more.
