Azure Purview adds support for SAP Business Warehouse

Azure Purview continues expanding data source support to empower you to effectively govern data across the hybrid landscape. You can now scan SAP Business Warehouse (BW) to enrich your data map.

 

Register and scan

Azure Purview data source administrators can start by registering an SAP BW source under the data map, and set up reoccurring or one-time scans. Learn more about the prerequisites and step-by-step instruction from Connect to and manage SAP Business Warehouse in Azure Purview.

 

During the scan, Azure Purview extracts rich sets of metadata from your SAP BW instance, including InfoArea, InfoSet, InfoSet Query, Classic InfoSet, InfoObject, Data Store Object (DSO), Aggregation Level, Open Hub Destination, Query, Query View, HybridProvider, MultiProvider, InfoCube, Aggregate, Dimension, Time Dimension, etc.

Once the scan completes, you can discover assets via search or browse.

Search for the assets by keyword, and narrow down results by using the facet filters.
