Architecture – data sources

• Import data - All data (from whatever source is selected) is ‘uploaded’ (replicated) to SAP Analytics Cloud in-memory HANA Database. SAP Analytics Cloud then stores the model and data. Security can be added to the model within SAP Analytics Cloud.

• Live data - The data is not replicated to SAP Analytics Cloud. Modelling and model security is managed on the source system.

• SAC requires totally different user acceptance effort• Incomparable reporting capabilities • SAC is eliminating differences more and more… (e.g.

upcoming script logic)• Infrastructure = Google Chrome• Native data connectors • Key users are able to adjust the planning cycle

• Missing complexed features – consolidation, elimination…

• Missing script logic• „Cloud“

• Strong platform with ABAP integration possibilities, NetWeaver background and script logic

• Highly processed oriented EPM solution with Excel front-end (with all benefits and negatives)

• Usage of BW (if you have BW)

• Time and cost consuming infrastructure• Complicated build process of input forms• Requirement of strong „BPC expertise“ to adjust the

process
