Real-time notifications
Problem
Sending real-time notifications based on enriched SAP data is not possible using the standard SAP stack (SAP BW, …)
Examples:
- “Notify the customer ASAP when his order is finished and shipped”
- “Notify me ASAP when some product leaves the production line/warehouse”
/w=3840,quality=80,fit=scale-down)
Solution
- Send SAP data directly from ERP → Databricks (skip SAP BW)
- enrich the SAP data with some other data (CRM, 3rd party data, …)
- trigger a notification/API call directly from the Databricks pipeline
Data needed: Table-level SAP data from a primary system ECC or S/4, CRM data, 3rd party data
Tools needed: any SAP-compatible real-time data ingestion tool
Expected effort/budget needed:
- data integration project: 100 - 150 MDs (depending on the maturity of your Databricks adoption)
- tooling: €40k - €100k per year for data ingestion tool fees, Databricks compute, cloud storage and I/Os
