Teradata and SAP BI7.3 Connection

[former_member228877]

Hi experts,

I have requirement to extract data from Teradata to SAP BI7.3, I have gone through some of the links in SDN which was suggest to go for UD connection with JDBC

1.In SAP BI7.3 is there any other way of connecting Teradata ( As all links referred to old version i.e  BW3.5 and UD Connector)

2.Does any body have step by step document,

3.What are the Pros and Cons of using UD connector? Can I use DB connector ? and which is the best possible way to get data from Teradata.

Thanks and regards

Sri

Hello

You need to deploy the JDBC drivers for Teradata

Once done you need to create a connection string in the Java stack under the Connector Container.

There is a document available on the Teradata site with the complete steps.

The procedure is same like for other databases. Follow that

Hi RB,

Thanks a lot for your reply,

really helpful information, But as a SAP BW consultant I need to give this task to Basis ...:

Once they complete database connection, I can create Generic data source  and pull the data to BW.

Best regards
