The Challenge: Delivering SAP Data Flexibly and with Control

Companies face complex hurdles when making SAP data available for analytics and AI platforms:

‍Vendor Lock-In & Cloud Costs: Reliance on individual hyperscalers often leads to unpredictable storage costs and egress fees during data transfer.
Strict Data Protection & Compliance Requirements: Due to the GDPR, DORA, or industry regulations (finance, healthcare, KRITIS), sensitive corporate data may not be stored in public U.S. cloud storage.‍
Infrastructure Limitations: Manual data transfers and outdated interfaces place a strain on SAP source systems and cause delays in data analysis.

Benefits at a Glance

Maximum Data Sovereignty: No Vendor Lock-in

You decide where your SAP data is stored—locally in your own data center or with certified regional cloud providers. Stay flexible and independent of individual hyperscalers thanks to the open S3 standard.

Cost & Storage Efficiency

Take advantage of cost-effective storage architectures and compressed formats (such as Parquet) to minimize transfer and storage costs.

Near-Real-Time Synchronization

Thanks to integrated Change Data Capture (CDC) technology, you can keep your target environment up to date without placing a heavy load on your SAP system.

Ransomware Protection & Governance

Support for WORM (Write Once, Read Many) functions and configurable storage policies for tamper-proof data storage.

Use Cases: The Foundation for Your Open Data Lake

S3-compatible object storage serves as a vendor-neutral hub for modern data architectures:

Sovereign Data Lakes & Lakehouses: Build scalable data lakes without tying your data to proprietary ecosystems.

Direct Query & Modern Data Stack: Extracted data is immediately available for state-of-the-art query engines and frameworks (such as Duck DB, Apache Iceberg, Spark, or dbt).

Extract Once, Use Many: Offload your SAP systems by centrally storing data on S3 and making it accessible to all downstream BI, analytics, and AI applications.

How Xtract Universal.iQ Works with S3-Compatible Storage

Standard Interface: Uses the universal S3 API for seamless authentication and data transfer via access keys and IAM roles.‍
End-to-End Security: Encrypted transmission (HTTPS/TLS) and support for server-side encryption (SSE) guarantee the highest level of data protection.
