Abstract:
Increasing amount of data and the diversity of available data structures enable applications that can make timely decisions based on live data that, in most cases, can be evaluated without traditional application layer processing. SAP introduced the Core Data Service (CDS) framework as a data modeling approach in which Virtual Data Models (VDM) are defined at the database layer. CDS improve applications performance by pushing data processing from the application to the database layer to reduce data movements. In this paper, we present some technical insights into SAP’s CDS, including new application patterns supported by CDS and the motivations behind it. We also discuss some practical considerations and challenges that may arise with CDS adoption and implementation.
