Platform Overview

What is SAP BW/4HANA?

SAP BW/4HANA is a next-generation enterprise data warehouse solution built exclusively on SAP HANA. It delivers a simplified, open, and modern data warehousing platform that leverages HANA's in-memory processing capabilities for real-time analytics and reporting at enterprise scale.

As the strategic evolution of SAP BW on HANA, BW/4HANA removes legacy complexity — eliminating aggregates, simplifying data models, and providing seamless integration with SAP Analytics Cloud, SAP S/4HANA, and the broader SAP data ecosystem. SAVIC helps organisations implement new BW/4HANA systems and migrate from legacy SAP BW — transforming their data landscape for the AI era.

Technical Capabilities

Under the Hood

SAP BW/4HANA leverages the full power of SAP HANA to deliver capabilities that traditional data warehouses simply cannot match.

SAP HANA In-Memory Engine

All data stored and processed in-memory — eliminating traditional aggregates and indexes, and delivering instant query performance at any scale.

DataStore Objects (Advanced)

Next-generation DSO objects that combine staging, reporting, and propagation in one layer — simplifying the data flow and reducing modelling complexity.

Open ODS Views

Virtual reporting views over external data sources — enabling SAP Analytics Cloud to access operational data without physical loading into BW/4HANA.

Real-Time Data Acquisition

Near real-time data replication from SAP S/4HANA via SLT, ODP, and SAP Datasphere — keeping analytical data current with minimal latency.

Enterprise Data Governance

Centralised metadata management, data lineage, and authorisation concepts — ensuring data quality, traceability, and compliance across your warehouse.

BW Query & OLAP Engine

Powerful BEx query and OLAP capabilities with multi-dimensional analysis, hierarchies, and calculated key figures — the analytical backbone for SAC.
