Options to support additional data sources
14
Conditionally Supported database platforms
Standards-based drivers, vendor-supported ODBC or JDBC drivers
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 2-compliant
ODBC driver must support multiple connections (for IM products only)
JDBC drivers must be JDBC Type 4-compliant 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
• Crystal Report Enterprise• Web Intelligence• Dashboard• Explorer• Mobi
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
Platforms we consider beyond Data
Operating Systems (Windows, RedHat, SUSE, AIX, Solaris)
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
Server/Desktop Virtualization
