Data Layer of
Datasphere:

1. Data Builder
2. Business Builder
The SAP Datasphere Data Layer contains the basic modeling of the underlying data sources
and tables.

The related set of tools is available in the SAP Datasphere Data Builder.
Here, developers and modelers use tables, views and intelligent lookups to combine, clean,
and prepare data. Views can be exposed directly to SAP Analytics Cloud and other analytics
clients.

The SAP Datasphere Business Layer allows users to create their own business models on
top based on business terms. The related set of tools is provided by the SAP Datasphere
Business Builder.
Data Builder Artifacts:

• Create views and tables to prepare


data for your stories
• Use entity-relationship models to
visualize and make associations
between artifacts.

Types of Load from source to datasphere:

1. Initial Only (Full Load)


2. Initial + Delta
3. Truncate during load

Add Projection to flow Data:

• Mapping can be done from source to


target
• Filter can be done on data
• Edit the descriptions in the mapping

Data Builder – New Replication Flow
The replicated table can be seen in the Data
builder tables section for consumption
Data Builder – New Replication Flow
Check the table data replicated from the
source to Datasphere
Data Builder – New Replication Flow
You can set delta load also and delta can
be done every 60 mins.

Setting: Initial + Delta Load

Looks , This set up for delta needs proper


authorizations and was not able to set up
completely

The replication task created can be edited
or deleted from the initial screen of the
data builder
