Modern BI
Traditional business intelligence
(BI) platforms let IT departments
deliver trusted, interactive
analytic content to business
leaders.
But it takes time to model
the necessary data
structures and semantic
layers.
That frustrates business
people, who are demanding
instant access to data.

SAP Lumira software
extends the power
of traditional BI
with modern BI.

From collect to connect From power to empower From control to trust
The new release of SAP Lumira software supports three
key aspects of modern BI:

From Collect to
Connect

The number
of new data
sources has
exploded.
Enterprises
cannot store all
the data they
require for
analytics in a
single data
warehouse.

Data management solutions for analytics (DMSA) combine traditional, Big Data,
and streaming approaches.
Easier than ever to bring data
together for analysis when
needed.
No need to create data structures in
advance thanks to:
In-memory computing technology –
the SAP HANA platform
Open-source platforms – Apache Hadoop,
Apache Spark, the SAP Vora solution
The future

Data must be accessible
wherever it is stored — even
outside company systems.
But corporate data
systems are complex.
IT-led data integration and
data cleansing initiatives
continue to play an
important role.
SAP Lumira

Using the semantic layer Direct access to data
warehouses – SAP Business
Warehouse application
SAP Lumira 2.0 improves access to trusted data

Powerful, easy-to-use features to:
Fix data-quality
problems on the fly
Merge data from
different sources
Let business people
mash data together
from any source:
Third-party
cloud data
Local
spreadsheetsNo need to contact IT.

From Power to
Empower

Attractive, interactive reports Dashboards giving just the data
needed to make decisions
Ideal solution

Analytics require
constant iteration
and change.
Modern BI is
growing faster.
New insights translate
into new business
approaches that, in turn,
require new analytics.
Why can’t IT departments keep up with the analytic needs of
the business?

Primary goal of data
warehouses and semantic
layers
Direct data access by business people –
bypassing computer languages, even
SQL
Interactive, user-friendly
analysis
Technology limitations restricting what was
possible in terms of interactive, user-friendly
analysis, which tended to restrict self-service
to power users
Self-service analytics

Bridge business and IT
Simplify the user and
administration experience
Optimize access to governed
secure data
Planned ease-of-use innovations offered by SAP Lumira 2.0 (subject to change)

views of data and continue analysis
Watch these features in action. Join Iver van de Zand’s excellent preview demo.

The redesign of the user interface is gorgeous. I haven't seen anything that
pretty in the BI landscape. I'm also really excited about the possibility of
combining data from multiple sources into a functioning data set, taking it
up essentially another notch to allow my business users to prototype even
faster – in real time.

From Control to
Trust

Will BI tools lead to
corporate chaos?
Will business people
make bad decisions
based on inadequate
data?
Will they
misunderstand the
data?
There is no
indication of such
occurrences.

Needless duplication Labor-intensive
comparisons with low
useful yield
High per-user costs
However, uncontrolled proliferation of self-service tools in
modern BI deployments can lead to:

SAP Lumira provides the best of both worlds
Combined user freedom with
effective IT governance
Integration with traditional BI
management infrastructures for
security and scalability

Bridging business users and power users
Extend
discovery
stories
Apply
analytic
applications

needs
