Offload SAP BW and integrate it seamlessly into new architectures

The introduction of SAP Datasphere marks a fundamental shift in SAP data management: away from a purely centralized data warehouse toward integrated, cloud-based architectures. For many companies, this is not about completely replacing their SAP BW, but rather about its targeted further development and a focus on core tasks.

In our webinar on June 30, 2026, at 10 a.m., we’ll show you exactly what the so-called “BW Diet” entails and what options it offers. Using typical scenarios, we’ll demonstrate how SAP BW can be effectively integrated into a modern data architecture—without a big-bang transformation.

The focus of the webinar:

  • Understanding SAP Datasphere: The Role of the Cloud Platform in Modern Data Management and Its Interaction with SAP BW.
  • The "BW Diet" Concept: How to specifically reduce pressure on mature BW landscapes and focus them on their core functions.
  • An Overview of Architectural Approaches: Hybrid, Add-on, and Transformation Scenarios, and Their Practical Applications.
  • Organization and Governance: The Impact of Data Fabric and Self-Service on Roles, Collaboration, and Data Ownership.  

Learn how to eliminate unnecessary complexity from your SAP BW while paving the way for a modern data architecture. Discuss decision-making options, typical scenarios, and organizational implications—in a practical and structured manner.
