Azure Data Factory SAP CDC Connector

Azure Data Factory SAP CDC Connector

  • Real-time ingestion using the SAP CDC connector
  • Very easy to setup and start using
  • Relatively cheap on-demand pricing
  • Minimal operations effort needed
  • Uses standard SAP ODP framework (via RFC, not oData)
  • Direct support for Databricks Delta as a target
  • SAP application tables can be extracted only when using SAP SLT as a proxy
    • Alternatively, you can create custom CDSViews for the tables you need to extract
  • Some functionality not supported yet (hierarchy datasource, additive extractors, …)
  • Invalid/improper data types conversion (DATE, CHAR, DECIMAL) from SAP to the data lake
  • Relatively new (introduced 07/2022)
