Most organisations approaching SAP Datasphere already carry years of accumulated modelling expertise from SAP BW — and one of the first questions modellers ask is deceptively simple: where did all my familiar building blocks go? InfoObjects, DataStore Objects (advanced), CompositeProviders, Open ODS Views, and hierarchies each have a role in the BW world, but Datasphere reframes these concepts around tables, graphical and SQL views, associations, semantic types, and the Analytic Model.
This webinar walks through the core BW modelling entities and maps each to its closest equivalent — and its meaningful differences — in SAP Datasphere. We’ll look at how characteristics and key figures resurface as semantic-typed columns and measures, how the layered BW architecture (acquisition, propagation, reporting) translates into Datasphere’s space and view-based approach, and where the analogy breaks down and a genuine rethink is required rather than a one-to-one port.
Attendees will leave with a practical mental model for carrying their BW design instincts into Datasphere, recognising which habits transfer cleanly and which need to be unlearned. The session is aimed at data modellers, BW developers, and solution architects planning or already navigating the move toward SAP Datasphere.
