SAP pipeline from days to hours

// The problem

Global SAP data processing had ground to a halt after third-party changes — a pipeline meant to run several times a day took up to several days per run. Reporting across the worldwide organisation stalled and waited.

// The solution

We completely redesigned the pipeline to event-driven processing on Azure Functions, simplified the logic and optimised indexes and caching. It includes globally deployed SAP downloaders that feed data warehouses worldwide.

// Results
  • Pipeline runtime back from several days to ~4 h (EU) / 6 h (Asia)
  • Globally deployed SAP downloaders feeding data warehouses
  • Event-driven architecture — cheaper and more reliable to run
  • Significantly easier to maintain and extend
