SAP Analytics
The new world of SAP® Reporting and Analytics using Embedded and Enterprise Analytics to power the intelligent enterprise
Understanding the new world of Embedded Analytics and Enterprise Analytics
While embedded analytics focuses on real-time operational reporting, enterprise analytics is suitable for holistic business management and covers a broader range of applications.
Over the last few decades SAP has strived to deliver standard reporting tools that satisfy rapidly changing business environments. These past efforts were constrained by data volume and system performance limitations that necessitated replicating and staging operational data in a secondary application (e.g., SAP BI/BW) to support robust reporting and analytics requirements. For the first time, SAP S/4HANA and its in-memory database, now enables real-time access to all operational reporting requirements with a single data concept – Embedded Analytics.
Embedded Analytics let you analyze and visualize the data directly in the source system. It eliminates the need for complicated and time-consuming data preparation steps. The combination of the simplified data model across applications, instant access to CDS views for real-time data retrieval, and the new Fiori front-end, enables all business users to choose from a wealth of standard SAP analytical reports. Beyond the standard delivered reports, you can develop your own custom analyses using the simplified data and reporting framework.
Enterprise Analytics is a more comprehensive concept that encompasses complex analyses for strategic reporting, which are better served by data analytics platforms, such as SAP Data Warehouse Cloud and more traditional tools like SAP BW/4HANA, that can integrate and harmonize disparate data that is then accessible by advanced visualization and rendering tools such as SAP Analytics Cloud.
