Your BI on Cloud 9:
Get to know our Cloud Connectors

The Performer Suite already offers much more than just SAP BW.

Your SAP reporting landscape is evolving rapidly: With SAC, Datasphere, and CDS Views in the S/4 environment, there are now many ways to build modern analytics architectures far beyond traditional BW. But the challenges often remain the same. Logic and data flows are spread across multiple systems — and transparency is lost:

  • Why is a key figure in your SAC Story showing incorrect values?
  • Which CDS views are behind a Datasphere Analytic Model?
  • How can you trace the origin of a field across systems all the way back to S/4—for example, for audits?

Luckily, we offer the same capabilities you’re familiar with from the Performer Suite in BW for the “new world” as well: With the Performer Suite connectors for SAC, Datasphere, and S/4, you can achieve end-to-end transparency across your entire analytics landscape—and maintain a cross-system overview.
