It also helps to facilitate the migration of data for use in new data warehouse and analytics environments. It enables these use cases by providing easy and comprehensive insight into the complex data structures which underpin SAP BW/4HANA.
Roland Bullivant, Sales and Marketing Director at Silwood Technology commented; "We often find that customers want to start their data catalog project by provisioning their platform with metadata from with SAP BW or, increasingly SAP BW/4HANA. Being able to do this quickly with Safyr means that they can gain early value from their investment in these projects."
In technical terms Safyr 7.6 introduces enhanced support for SAP BW systems implemented on HANA. In particular, the product now extracts and makes available metadata about Advanced DataStore Objects (ADSO's) and HANA Composite Providers.
Silwood Technology have also introduced additional facilities to save time and increase flexibility by allowing customers to automate their Safyr process. This means that they can use commonly available tools to schedule the extraction of metadata from source applications, populate subsets and then provision the metadata in other tools.
Nick Porter, Technical Director of Silwood Technology added, "This important release of Safyr further demonstrates our commitment to supporting customers for whom SAP BW and BW/4HANA are critical to the success of their data projects. We continue to work with customers and partners to deliver the most comprehensive facilities for analysing and sharing metadata from these highly complex applications."
