Integrate, catalog, and govern SAP Datasphere assets in Atlan.
SAP Datasphere Public Preview
Overview: Catalog SAP Datasphere spaces, tables, views, analytic models, and columns in Atlan, with lineage across your Datasphere models and back to the source systems that feed them.
Built for SAP Business Data Cloud
The SAP Datasphere connector is built to work with the SAP S/4HANA, SAP BW/4HANA, and SAP Analytics Cloud connectors. Together, these connectors are how Atlan supports SAP Business Data Cloud:
- SAP S/4HANA: the business applications where operational data originates.
- SAP BW/4HANA: the enterprise data warehouse that models and consolidates SAP data.
- SAP Datasphere: the data layer that brings SAP and non-SAP data together into spaces, views, and analytic models.
- SAP Analytics Cloud: the analytics layer where business users build models and stories.
When you crawl these connectors together, you can trace lineage across your SAP landscape:
- SAP S/4HANA to SAP Datasphere: Atlan links tables replicated into SAP Datasphere back to their source tables in SAP S/4HANA. For details, see upstream source lineage.
- SAP Datasphere to SAP Analytics Cloud: Atlan links SAP Datasphere analytic models to the SAP Analytics Cloud Live models that read from them, and on to the stories built on those models.
For lineage across connectors, crawl SAP S/4HANA first, then SAP Datasphere, and then SAP Analytics Cloud.
The SAP Datasphere connector also works on its own. You don't need SAP Business Data Cloud or any of the other SAP connectors to catalog SAP Datasphere assets and their lineage within SAP Datasphere.
