Introduction
SAP Datasphere (DSP), is used by Syensqo to extract data from SAP systems. The data is consolidated for SAP reporting and distribution to MS Fabric for Non-SAP reporting.
Reporting in DSP is performed using the tightly integrated Application Architecture SAP Analytics Cloud.
Both DSP and SAC are now recently incorporated as part of the larger SAP Business Data Cloud offering. SAP will probably try and migrate us to the new product when they are ready.
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to understand the architecture required to support the implementationScope & Objectives
The SAP Analytics and Reporting Approach explains what will be implemented and the SAP Analytics and Reporting Standards details how it will be implemented.
This document explains the landscape and integration of the solution
Requirements
| Requirement Identifier | Requirement Description |
|---|---|
Terminology
- Client: A self-contained, logically-separated unit in an SAP system (technical instance based on ABAP Application Server) with separate master data, transactional data and configurations that are client specific. E.g., Client 100.
- Component: Software modules or add-on that are installed in the instance and enables a specific function. E.g., Fiori, GTS.
- Instance: An entity refers to the entire system including the software and all technical components (DB, application server etc.). E.g., S/4HANA Production.
- SID: Unique identifier for an SAP instance that consists of three characters.
- Environment/Tier: Refers to systems that are used for the different stages of the project lifecycle. Each environment serves a distinct purpose and has a dedicated instance to ensure stability and integrity. E.g., Development, QAS.
- Landscape: Refers to all the environment for an application or entire project. E.g., S/4HANA landscape, SyWay landscape.
Application Architecture
Architectural Decisions
Below Table provides the details of the architectural decisions made based on the rationale.
| Architectural Decision | Description | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| SSL and SNC will be configured for DSP to encrypt web and RFC traffic | Based on SyWay implementation approach, all data in transit must be encrypted. | Security is vital |
| Configure SSO for DSP | As part of SyWay project, a common authentication mechanism (e.g., SAML) will be adopted | For ease of access and unified user experience. |
| Seamless planning | To enable seamless planning, Both DSP and SAC must be deployed in the same data centre and hosted by the same hyperscaler | SAP limitation and meeting Syensqo preferences |

Data Provisioning Agent
Data Provisioning Agent (DPA) is used for real-time and batch data replication from S/4HANA to SAP Datasphere. The network connection to SAP Datasphere is initiated by DPA and CGS is used to facilitate the internet connection to SAP Datasphere.
DPA uses the HTTPS or RFC protocols to communicate with S/4HANA and uses the HTTPS protocol to communicate with SAP Datasphere.
A 2 tier landscape will be adopted for DPA: non-PRD and PRD. The non-PRD instance will be shared across all non-PRD landscape.
