APOS Live Data Gateway - Data Blending
In a recent APOS webinar, Alan Golding told us about the data blending capabilities of APOS Data Gateway. APOS Data Gateway consists of the following modules:
- Live Data Gateway
- Import Data Gateway
- Export Data Gateway
Data blending capabilities are provided by the Live Data Gateway. As you may know, APOS Live Data Gateway is a middleware platform which provides virtualized data connection and data transformation to enable live data connectivity and expanded data source options for SAP Analytics Cloud, with a primary focus on non-SAP data sources.
Live Data Gateway has been serving the needs of SAP customers needing to connect live to non-SAP data sources for a number of years, and over that time the most requested capability has been the ability to blend data from different live connections.
Live Data Gateway now has the ability to consolidate live connections from multiple data sources into a single view for consumption in SAP Analytics Cloud, allowing SAP customers to extract value from multiple data sets.
In summary, Live Data Gateway data blending lets you:
- Combine data from two different data sources and present as one source to SAC
- Consolidate virtualized connections
- Unify data from two live sources in a single view
- Leverage data from multiple sources into individual analytics
- Extract business value from multiple data sets
- Reduce data movement
