Specify use cases carefully before creating documents
Data is everything – take your decisions wisely
▪ Access almost any data source with SAP Lumira
▪ Live or imported data?
– Big Data use cases  use live connections & power of back-end servers
– Use import for smaller amounts of data  combine data sources, requires CPU & memory
▪ Recommended: Work on aggregated & filtered data – use live scenario for transactional data
▪ Don’t duplicate data where not necessary
▪ Trade merging versus blending to avoid overloading memory
▪ Define as much as you can in your back-end systems
Don’t expect your client to perform better than your back end
