Companies building data lakes in Amazon S3 often face challenges such as time-consuming data provisioning, scaling issues, lack of real-time data, and infrastructure overload. Without automation, manual processes unnecessarily tie up resources and complicate integration.

Furthermore, the integration is hindered by large data volumes and complex SAP structures. Delays in data transfer negatively impact analysis and reporting. Ultimately, inefficient transfer processes can affect the performance of other systems.

Connect SAP with Amazon S3, integrate, and simplify data transfer using Xtract Universal.

Xtract Universal, a powerful and reliable connector, ensures that data from SAP ERP, SAP BW, and S/4HANA environments is reliably and automatically transferred to Amazon S3 Cloud Storage. The interface ensures that data from SAP systems is continuously available in Amazon S3 and Amazon S3-based data lakes for further processing.

For uploads to Amazon S3, Xtract Universal uses a Multipart Upload. The extracted data is sent piece by piece as so-called parts to S3 and temporarily buffered. In the event of a successful extraction, the individual parts are then merged into a single file.

Xtract Universal’s Table CDC (Change Data Capture) enables fast and resource-friendly replication of SAP data changes — without relying on the ODP API. This ensures accurate analytics and up-to-date data in your target environment.

As a leading object storage service, Amazon S3 offers a reliable and scalable foundation for building modern data lakes - ideal for data-driven applications like big data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), or machine learning (ML).

With Xtract Universal, you can seamlessly and automatically integrate your SAP data into Amazon S3, ensuring your data from various sources is available centrally in the cloud. This allows your team to access a unified data foundation, regardless of location or front-end - enabling faster decisions and optimized business processes.
