The Blog
Guides, deep dives, and news on SAP data integration, agentic AI, and B2B digital commerce.
A field-by-field guide to configuring SAP's Type G HTTP RFC destination in SM59 for OneConnect, and the SWELS/SWETYPV activation step most guides skip.
SAP to Databricks integration with OneConnect streams business events from SAP ECC and S/4HANA to Delta tables through Apache Kafka, without ABAP code or manual schema management.
SAP data extraction without ODP is what OneConnect does by design. Here is what it uses instead of Operational Data Provisioning, and why it matters.
The ASK specification is a source-available YAML contract that describes what enterprise data means, so AI agents generate governed, deterministic SQL.
SAP business events vs database CDC: a row change tells you a field moved; a business event tells you what happened, and why that decides your architecture.
A semantic layer for AI agents describes what enterprise data means so agents generate governed, deterministic SQL instead of hallucinating on raw schemas.
OneConnect captures SAP changes through application layer business events (RAP, BOR, BTE, PPF), not ODP or database triggers. Here is the exact mechanism.
A step-by-step guide to stream SAP data to Kafka with Onibex OneConnect, from SAP Data Modeler through the Smart Gateway to a live topic and schema.
A business event is SAP announcing that a business object changed. What each native mechanism really is, and why it beats reading the database log.
SAP to Databricks in real time: how SAP data ingestion moves from SAP ECC and S/4HANA events into Databricks Delta Lake, without batch loads.
Onibex OneConnect's Smart Gateway replaces hand-built SAP RFC integrations and Kafka Connect configs with two guided wizards: one for SAP, one for the destination.
The SAP answer takes seconds and the report takes two days. Generating documents from data products removes the last mile, and regeneration is the real feature.
A side-by-side comparison of Onibex OneConnect against SLT, Datasphere, Fivetran, and BTP Event Mesh on native business-object triggers and Kafka delivery.
A text-to-SQL agent on a raw SAP schema invents tables. A semantic layer with declared joins and audited SQL is what makes the output auditable.
Onibex One Connect streams SAP business events into Kafka as Avro records with an enforced schema, no ABAP and no inbound firewall rules.
Pointing an LLM at SAP tables produces SQL that runs and numbers that are wrong. Here is the open semantic layer we built over SAP data products.
Before streaming speed, ask where the SAP pipeline lives and who controls the boundary. BYOC, data sovereignty, and cloud portability, explained.
Every new SAP field or report becomes an IT ticket. Metadata-driven integration removes the schema-mapping bottleneck: SAP data describes itself.
