Real-time SAP data in Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, and Snowflake

Real-time SAP data in Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, and Snowflake

McCoy & Partners and Simplement join forces to make SAP data reliably available outside of SAP.

Seamless hybrid environments

Make SAP data usable outside of SAP

More and more organizations want to combine SAP data with data from other systems and use it for analytics and AI. To achieve this, they are unlocking SAP data to platforms such as Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, and Snowflake. It is important that the data is reliably available and well integrated with the existing data architecture.

McCoy & Partners and Simplement assist organizations with this. Simplement provides the technology to systematically unlock SAP data to non-SAP platforms. McCoy ensures the connection to the data architecture, data models, and reporting, so that organizations can effectively use the unlocked data.

Challenges

Do you recognize this?

Unlocking SAP data to Fabric, Databricks, or Snowflake sounds simple, but in practice, organizations encounter the same issues. These are the four situations where Simplement provides a solution.

Your ODP extraction is under pressure

Since SAP Note 3255746, ODP via RFC for external tools is no longer permitted.

Many organizations use ODP to extract SAP data to external platforms. This now poses a compliance risk, and technically it often goes wrong: deltas that do not come through properly, resulting in missing changes and deletions in your target platform. Simplement replicates changes directly from SAP, without relying on ODP. This ensures that your data is complete and up-to-date, and you remain within SAP's licensing terms.

SAP Business Data Cloud is more than you need

You want SAP data in your existing platform, not an additional platform.

SAP BDC is a logical choice if you are fully committed to the SAP ecosystem. If you already have a data platform in Fabric, Databricks, or Snowflake, with BDC you often pay for an extra layer that you do not use. Simplement brings SAP data directly to your own platform, with a transparent pricing model. We assist you in the exploration to determine which route yields the most for your situation.

Large data volumes slow everything down

Full loads that take hours and customization that no one dares to touch anymore.

For tables like ACDOCA, MATDOC, or large sales tables, standard solutions quickly reach their limits. The result: long loading times, overnight batches that overrun, and a pile of custom solutions to make it work. Simplement processes only the changes after the initial load, even with very large volumes. This saves computing power, management, and self-built workarounds.

The meaning of your SAP data is getting lost

Columns like MATNR and BUKRS mean nothing to anyone outside of SAP.

During extraction, the descriptions, relationships, and structures that make SAP data understandable often disappear. These then have to be manually reconstructed, which is time-consuming and error-prone. With Semantic Bridge, you transfer SAP views while preserving metadata and coherence. We then translate this into a data model and reports that your business can immediately work with.

Services

How can we assist you?

From initial exploration to a working solution. Together with Simplement, we help you unlock SAP data to Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, or Snowflake.

Explore

We map out your requirements, data sources, and architecture.

In a brief intake, we discuss which SAP data you need, from which systems (S/4HANA, ECC, or BW), and for what purpose. Together, we determine the target platform, how current the data needs to be, and how it integrates with your existing architecture. You will receive clear advice on the approach and the next steps.

Realize

We demonstrate the approach with a free PoC and implement the solution upon a positive result.

In the PoC, we replicate a defined set of SAP tables or views to your platform with Simplement, allowing you to see the functionality with your own data. If the result is positive, we implement the complete solution: from replication and data model to the initial reports, for example in Power BI.

Optimize

We help you manage, monitor, and further develop the solution.

After going live, we remain involved. We monitor the data flows and performance, quickly resolve disruptions, and gradually expand the solution with new sources, data models, and applications such as AI. This way, your data platform grows along with your organization.
