universe creation using different schema

Former Member

Hi

Suppose if the business stores data in multiple source systems in different network and these databases have different schema. Is it possible to create a single universe that would get data from different databases. Example Source system 1 has Customer information, Source system 2 has Material Information, Source system 3 has Vendor information.

Thanks

Siva

Yes it is possible but your BO system has to be BO 4.0 and upper. You can create multi source universe and connect tables from different databases or data sources. This is called Data Federation. In BO 4.0 Data Federator comes with BO 4.0 server by default. In BO 3.1, you need to install Data Federator separately and license is also separate from BO server.

Check the link below 2nd Part with Data Federator.
