Connect Your SAP & Non-SAP Data to SAP Business Data Cloud for Unified Enterprise Analytics

The Challenge

You’ve invested in SAP Business Data Cloud to unify your analytics. Your SAP data flows into its’s semantic models and Joule. But your Oracle financials, Microsoft Dynamics operations, and Workday HR data still sit isolated—separate analytics tools, separate metrics, separate dashboards. The result is an incomplete picture. Your analytics reflect part of how your business runs, not all of it. As SAP’s Business AI Platform — of which SAP Business Data Cloud is the data and AI foundation — drives the next wave of enterprise intelligence, the ability to include all of your data is no longer optional.

The Solution

SAP and insightsoftware are expanding their partnership to close this gap. The new solution connects non-SAP enterprise data to SAP Business Data Cloud — enabling analytics and giving Joule access to your complete data landscape. It draws on insightsoftware’s two decades of experience integrating non-SAP data into SAP environments. That experience is the foundation of this partnership. For twenty years, insightsoftware has specialized in one thing that most vendors don’t do well: taking data from Oracle, Microsoft, Workday, and other enterprise systems and transforming it into something SAP understands. Not just moving data — understanding it as business objects, mapping it to SAP’s data model, and delivering it in a form the platform can actually use. That’s the capability SAP recognized when they came to insightsoftware. It’s what makes this solution different from a generic integration tool.

How It Works

The solution transforms and brings data from your non-SAP systems into SAP Business Data Cloud, conforming it to SAP’s standardized business semantics before it arrives. Your source data stays where it lives. Only changed records move — when your AP team posts 50 invoices in Oracle, only those 50 transactions are transformed and brought to the platform, not your entire invoice history. Pre-built content covers the most common non-SAP ERP systems including Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Infor, Workday, and Salesforce — plus any other customer-managed systems. Your S/4HANA, Ariba, and Concur data flows through native SAP Data Products. All of it arrives in SAP Business Data Cloud speaking the same language.

What Makes This Different

Rather than competing with SAP's native connectors, this solution extends SAP Business Data Cloud's reach to the non-SAP systems SAP doesn't natively support. It's a complementary enhancement to SAP's ecosystem, not a workaround. For companies already running SAP Central Finance, the solution builds on established replication patterns and data architecture you've already invested in. As SAP expands its Data Product catalog across finance, supply chain, HR, sales, and more, your non-SAP data needs to work with those models. This partnership positions your complete data landscape to take advantage of current and future SAP Data Products.
