Hello,
as we're currently evaluating SAP analytics visualization tools for SMEs, there are two restrictions for design studio which seem to be a no-go for SMEs, but maybe there are workarounds for that:
Many thanks & regards
Wolfgang
Hi Wolfgang,
In answer to your questions:
1) Publishing Platforms
Based on the Design Studio Product Availability Matrix, the only supported publishing platforms are:
(a) SAP BI (BusinessObjects)
(b) SAP NetWeaver
(c) SAP HANA
Without one of the above, I don't see any other workarounds for publishing Design Studio applications to a central portal. As far as I am aware, if you are deploying on a NetWeaver Portal, you still need a BW System in order to access SAP ERP (via a Transient Provider or Operational Data Provider).
2) Direct Data Connections
Data connections such as OData, JDBC or other Web Services can be developed as custom data sources with the Design Studio 1.4 SDK. So in theory, you could develop a direct connection to an SAP ERP system via OData for instance but you still have the issue of requiring one of the above supported platforms to publish the application to.
Regards,
Mustafa.
