Seamless Data Migration from Custom Objects with FivetranOrganizations need data freedom and the ability to access and gain insights from their data whenever needed. Extracting data from SAP systems can reveal valuable insights into various processes, but this task is challenging due to complex configurations, strict security protocols, and unique data types. Handling custom-developed Z transactions and refactoring business logic for new destinations, such as data warehouses or lakes, adds another layer of complexity. Fivetran simplifies this process by using a log-based replication approach that incurs minimal system overhead, ensuring efficient and reliable data capture. It addresses SAP scalability challenges by allowing logic development in cloud environments, where skilled data engineers are more accessible. Fivetran's solutions reduce the time and resources needed for data extraction and replication, eliminating the need for custom integrations and enabling organizations to quickly transfer data to the cloud, thus accelerating insight derivation and informed decision-making.
Cybersecurity
Augmenting Existing SAP Network Security with OnapsisA recent study by Onapsis highlights a 400% rise in ransomware incidents targeting SAP systems, emphasizing the critical need for enhanced security measures to protect these applications. SAP offers various security features, including user authentication, encryption, and monitoring controls like SAProuter. However, if compromised, SAProuter can be an entry point for unauthorized access. Traditional vulnerability management and security monitoring often fall short for SAP systems, leading to a lack of visibility and effective threat detection. Onapsis addresses this gap with its automation capabilities and in-depth threat intelligence from Onapsis Research Labs. Key Solutions offered by Onapsis include Onapsis Assess that supports SAProuter, extending vulnerability management with automated scans and risk-driven analysis. This enables better prioritization and faster response to potential threats without manual intervention. Similarly, Onapsis Defend continuously monitors SAProuter for insider threats and potential compromises. It swiftly detects unauthorized access through targeted alerts and monitors over 2,000 threat indicators, including zero-day threats. The Onapsis Platform operates independently of SAP systems, ensuring security without compromising performance. It offers visibility into critical SAP systems, helping teams manage security, compliance, and availability issues through advanced analytics, reporting, and automation tools.
