SAP ByDesign Drivers & Connectors
for Data Integration

The SAP ByDesign driver acts like a bridge that facilitates communication between various applications and SAP ByDesign, allowing the application to read data as if it were a relational database. The SAP ByDesign driver abstracts the complexities of SAP ByDesign APIs, authentication methods, and data types, making it simple for any application to connect to SAP ByDesign data in real-time via standard SQL queries.

Working with a SAP ByDesign Driver is different than connecting with SAP ByDesign through other means. SAP ByDesign API integrations require technical experience from a software developer or IT resources. Additionally, due to the constant evolution of APIs and services, once you build your integration you have to constantly maintain SAP ByDesign integration code moving forward.

By comparison, our SAP ByDesign Drivers offer codeless access to live SAP ByDesign data for both technical and non-technical users alike. Any user can install our drivers and begin working with live SAP ByDesign data from any client application. Because our drivers conform to standard data interfaces like ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET etc. they offer a consistent, maintenance-free interface to SAP ByDesign data. We manage all of the complexities of SAP ByDesign integration within each driver and deploy updated drivers as systems evolve so your applications continue to run seamlessly.

If you need truly zero-maintenance integration, check out connectivity to SAP ByDesign via CData Connect Cloud. With Connect Cloud you can configure all of your data connectivity in one place and connect to SAP ByDesign from any of the available Cloud Drivers and Client Applications. Connectivity to SAP ByDesign is managed in the cloud, and you never have to worry about installing new drivers when SAP ByDesign is updated.

Many organizations draw attention to their library of connectors. After all, data connectivity is a core capability needed for applications to maximize their business value. However, it is essential to understand exactly what you are getting when evaluating connectivity. Some vendors are happy to offer connectors that implement basic proof-of-concept level connectivity. These connectors may highlight the possibilities of working with SAP ByDesign, but often only provide a fraction of capability. Finding real value from these connectors usually requires additional IT or development resources.

Unlike these POC-quality connectors, every CData SAP ByDesign driver offers full-featured SAP ByDesign data connectivity. The CData SAP ByDesign drivers support extensive SAP ByDesign integration, providing access to all of the SAP ByDesign data and meta-data needed by enterprise integration or analytics projects. Each driver contains a powerful embedded SQL engine that offers applications easy and high-performance access to all SAP ByDesign data. In addition, our drivers offer robust authentication and security capabilities, allowing users to connect securely across a wide range of enterprise configurations. Compare drivers and connectors to read more about some of the benefits of CData's driver connectivity.

With our drivers and connectors, every data source is essentially SQL-based. The CData SAP ByDesign driver contains a full SQL-92 compliant engine that translates standard SQL queries into SAP ByDesign API calls dynamically. Queries are parsed and optimized for each data source, pushing down as much of the request to SAP ByDesign as possible. Any logic that can not be pushed to SAP ByDesign is handled transparently client-side by the driver/connector engine. Ultimately, this means that SAP ByDesign looks and acts exactly like a database to any client application or tool. Users can integrate live SAP ByDesign connectivity with ANY software solution that can talk to a standard database.

Using the CData SAP ByDesign drivers and connectors, SAP ByDesign can be easily integrated with almost any application. Any software or technology that can integrate with a database or connect with standards-based drivers like ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, etc., can use our drivers for live SAP ByDesign data connectivity.

Additionally, since SAP ByDesign supported by CData Connect Cloud, we enable all kinds of new SAP ByDesign cloud integrations.

SAP ByDesign Analytics and SAP ByDesign Cloud BI integration is universally supported for BI and data science. In addition, CData provides native client connectors for popular analytics applications like Power BI, Tableau, and Excel that simplify SAP ByDesign data integration. Additionally, native Python connectors are widely available for data science and data engineering projects that integrate seamlessly with popular tools like Pandas, SQLAlchemy, Dash, and Petl.

SAP ByDesign data integration is typically enabled with CData Sync, a robust any-to-any data pipeline solution that is easy to set up, runs everywhere, and offers comprehensive enterprise-class features for data engineering. CData Sync makes it easy to replicate SAP ByDesign data any database or data warehouse, and maintain parity between systems with automated incremental SAP ByDesign replication. In addition, our SAP ByDesign drivers and connectors can be easily embedded into a wide range of data integration tools to augment existing solutions.

Absolutely. The best way to integrate SAP ByDesign with Excel is by using the CData Connect Cloud Excel Add-In. The SAP ByDesign Excel Add-In provides easy SAP ByDesign integration directly from Microsoft Excel Desktop, Mac, or Web (Excel 365). Simply configure your connection to SAP ByDesign from the easy-to-use cloud interface, and access SAP ByDesign just like you would another native Excel data source.
