Architecture and Components Operative SAP System SAP ERP, SAP ISU, SAP CRM, etc. PBS NAI is a software package that allows for a columnbased server to be directly used as part of operative SAP systems. Here, SAP acts as the lead system. The columnbased analytics server Sybase IQ is used as the NAI database. Thanks to its high maturity level and large number of installations, it offers a high degree of stability and scalability. With the PBS NAI interface, application data from an SAP system can be transferred to the NAI database and data can be analyzed directly in SAP using the analytics server.

Data Retrieval with NAI Replication When the connection is made between the NAI database and an SAP system, data is transferred between the SAP database and / or SAP archive and NAI database through an NAI process. To facilitate the transfer of data, PBS offers NAI replication that features the following functionalities: • Creation of NAI tables on the NAI database • Transferring of data from an SAP database or SAP archive to an NAI table • Deletion of an NAI table Operative SAP system SAP DB NAI Process NAI DB NAI Process SAP Archive Figure 3: Connecting an SAP system to an NAI database Figure 4: Transferring data through NAI replication Separate application-specific solutions are available for more complex data structures from multiple tables. 5
