8. In general, SAP recommends to use Embedded BW only for the SAP
standard scenarios. Beyond those cases particular rules and limitations apply,
i.e.:
SAP strongly recommends not to use Embedded BW for data
warehousing (EDW) use cases!
The amount of data persisted in the Embedded BW should not exceed
20% of the overall data volume of the system. This applies to
Extraction from own Suite / S/4HANA system
Integration of data from external applications Data from
planning applications License implications
Use of BPC requires a separate license
Security / Authorizations
Embedded BW relies on a separate authorization concept. Authorizations
from Suite / S/4HANA do not apply but need to be mapped if required.
Client Distribution
SAP recommends a separate client for Embedded BW
for organizational reasons (development, administration)
whenever data is physically replicated from another SAP application (on
the same system) to the Embedded BW
For certain scenarios the Embedded BW can be installed on the same
client (for additional details see slides 8, 9 in the appendix).
