This functionality enables you to compare functional IMG configuration between two systems. These systems must be connected in Solution Manager and should be configured with the necessary authorizations. It is useful especially when manual activity is involved in a comparison of the synchronization, distribution of configuration, and master data differences between two systems.

With the exponential growth of data from multiple sources, using conventional methods for extracting it is time-consuming, costly, and resource intensive. SAP has simplified Multi-Source Universes in SAP BusinessObjects 4.0 as an answer to this issue. Created with the Information Design Tool (IDT), a Multi-Source Universe can combine data from SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW) with other relational databases, such as Oracle and SQL Server. See how to create a Multi-Source Universe in this step-by-step guide.

SAP BusinessObjects Cloud offers data connectivity to many on-premise and cloud data sources.

Today’s organizations look dramatically different than they did just a few years ago. Modern digital enterprises have an increasing cloud presence, a growing mobile footprint, and data that lives outside an organization’s walls. These characteristics are not only reshaping how businesses operate, they are reshaping how businesses secure themselves. With borderless networks and an abundance of data, governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) initiatives have new prerogatives — and new challenges. Learn how SAP is addressing the GRC challenges of today’s digital enterprises.

For most organizations, the need to secure digital data is nothing new. In fact, the majority of enterprises have already invested a great deal in security. But this investment can lead to a false sense of security. As businesses across the board go through digital transformations, cybercrime is transforming as well. Threats are now more powerful than before, and the expanding networks of customers, devices, and partners that digital enterprises manage offer a variety of opportunities for hackers. In this Q&A, Justin Somaini, Chief Security Officer at SAP, explores how the digital transformation introduces new security challenges and gives advice on using SAP solutions to meet those challenges.

Every day, organizations produce innumerable amounts of valuable data and much of this data is tempting for cybercriminals, promising them riches in return for your organization’s data, financial assets, or intellectual property.
