13
Options to support additional data sources

Conditionally Supported database
platforms
Standards-based drivers, vendorsupported ODBC or JDBC drivers

14
Standards-based Driver Support
 Standards Based drivers must comply with
the following design guidelines:
 Database server, Client and ODBC/JDBC driver
used must support multiple threads.
 Vendor-supported drivers:
 ODBC drivers must be ODBC Level 2compliant
 ODBC driver must support multiple
connections (for IM products only)
 JDBC drivers must be JDBC Type 4compliant

 In case of issues, to get support the
customer is requested to attempt to
reproduce issue by reference:
 For ODBC on SQL Server
 For JDBC on MySQL
15
Support for new agnostic sources in 4.1
 New non-relational sources
• oData 2.0 data sources
• XML files
• Web services with WSDL 1.1 (SOAP)

 New relational sources
•
•
•
•

Oracle Exadata
Teradata 14
Hive on Amazon EMR (Elastic MapReduce)
DB2 10 for zOS via JDBC, DB2 for zOS 10.1, DB2 LUW 10 & 10.1,
DB2 for i v7.1
• Sybase ASE 15.7
• Oracle via ODBC (in addition to OCI and JDBC)
• PostgreSQL 9, MS SQL Server 2012, Greenplum 4.1 & 4.2

 New SSO support
• HANA through SAML
• Teradata
• Sybase IQ
oData Support
 SAP is part of the group that created the
oData standard
• Along with MSFT and IBM
• Open data protocol = a Web protocol for
querying and updating data

 There are 2 sides to oData
• oData consumption: access an oData compliant
data source
• oData provisioning: expose a data stream as
oData

 oData roadmap for Semantic Layer
• oData consumption: available in 4.1
• oData provisioning: will be supported in the
upcoming SL consumption SDK
oData consumption in BI 4.1 - a new connectivity
 The oData connection is defined in the information design tool
 The designer can author a UNX universe against an oData service
 The oData access is available to client tools supporting UNX universes
•

New Universe Consumption SDK
 Beyond BI 4.1 - Open universe semantic layer
consumption
 Universe Consumption SDK will allow partners to:
•
•
•

Build custom Universe query panel and embed it
anywhere
Expose Universe metadata within custom
application
Integrate Universe queries directly into custom
applications

 Architecture
•
•

SDK sends Universe query request as XML to BI
platform
Application receives query data back in oData
format

  • 15. Standards-based Driver Support  Standards Based drivers must comply with the following design guidelines:  Database server, Client and ODBC/JDBC driver used must support multiple threads.  Vendor-supported drivers:  ODBC drivers must be ODBC Level 2compliant  ODBC driver must support multiple connections (for IM products only)  JDBC drivers must be JDBC Type 4compliant  In case of issues, to get support the customer is requested to attempt to reproduce issue by reference:  For ODBC on SQL Server  For JDBC on MySQL 15
  • 16. Support for new agnostic sources in 4.1  New non-relational sources • oData 2.0 data sources • XML files • Web services with WSDL 1.1 (SOAP)  New relational sources • • • • Oracle Exadata Teradata 14 Hive on Amazon EMR (Elastic MapReduce) DB2 10 for zOS via JDBC, DB2 for zOS 10.1, DB2 LUW 10 & 10.1, DB2 for i v7.1 • Sybase ASE 15.7 • Oracle via ODBC (in addition to OCI and JDBC) • PostgreSQL 9, MS SQL Server 2012, Greenplum 4.1 & 4.2  New SSO support • HANA through SAML • Teradata • Sybase IQ

  • 18. oData consumption in BI 4.1 - a new connectivity  The oData connection is defined in the information design tool  The designer can author a UNX universe against an oData service  The oData access is available to client tools supporting UNX universes • • • • • Crystal Report Enterprise Web Intelligence Dashboard Explorer Mobi
  • 19. New Universe Consumption SDK  Beyond BI 4.1 - Open universe semantic layer consumption  Universe Consumption SDK will allow partners to: • • • Build custom Universe query panel and embed it anywhere Expose Universe metadata within custom application Integrate Universe queries directly into custom applications  Architecture • • SDK sends Universe query request as XML to BI platform Application receives query data back in oData format
  • 20. Platforms we consider beyond Data   Browsers (Internet Explorer, FireFox, Chrome, Safari)  Application Servers (Jboss, NetWeaver, Tomcat, WebLogic, WebSphere)  Portal Servers (Netweaver Enterprise Portal, WebLogic Portal, WebSphere Portal, Sharepoint)  LDAP (Tivoli, AD, eDirectory, Internet Directory, Sun Java System Directory)  Reverse Proxy  20 Operating Systems (Windows, RedHat, SUSE, AIX, Solaris) Server/Desktop Virtualization
