Future Direction of ODS in SAP BW

Team-Fly

---

SAP is in a strong position to shape the industry in defining ODS for the future corporate information supply-chain networks. SAP BW's evolution in a short period to a provider of rich business analysis functionality is amazing. A significant enhancement to the current implementation will be the provision of a standalone instance of SAP BW ODS. Benefits of having a stand-alone ODS are many, but the key benefit will be its manageability-not to be tied down to an instance of a specific analytical application but to have one autonomous data source for the entire corporate universe.
