SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW) is SAP’s Enterprise Data Warehouse product.[1] It can transform and consolidate business information from virtually any source system.[citation needed] It ran on industry standard RDBMS until version 7.3 at which point it began to transition onto SAP's HANA in-memory DBMS, particularly with the release of version 7.4.
History
In 1998 SAP released the first version of SAP BW, providing a model-driven approach to EDW that made data warehousing easier and more efficient, particularly for SAP R/3 data. Since then, SAP BW has evolved to become a key component for thousands of companies. An article,[2] provided the history of SAP BW from inception to the newer releases powered by SAP HANA.
