“Xtract Universal was worth the investment.
We could not have delivered all elements in the
current project without it.”

Solution with Xtract Universal

With Xtract Universal, the client saw an immediate improvement in performance. The full replication of SAP table JEST now takes less than one hour to complete, which translates into 6 x better performance over the previous process. In addition to table data, the client can replicate data from other SAP data sources, including ABAP reports and BW source objects. CS Energy is using the DeltaQ component of Xtract Universal to achieve incremental loads. Data extracts can be run in parallel, further reducing the overall time it takes to replicate SAP data into the cloud data warehouse. The ability to send data in SAP to Snowflake was an important criterion for the client. The client expects that Xtract Universal will definitely be used
long-term, as SAP will remain the core system for finance, purchasing, payroll, overhauls work and plant permits. Compatibility with S/4HANA
and the SAP integration certification for S/4HANA were critical for Xtract Universal to be part of the BI roadmap of the client.
