Practical Playbook for SAP BDC Connect for Snowflake
Most enterprises rely on SAP for mission-critical business processes and Snowflake for advanced analytics and AI. Historically, connecting the two meant expensive data replication, loss of semantic context, and growing governance risk.
SAP BDC Connect for Snowflake changes that equation. By enabling zero-copy, bi-directional data sharing, organizations can choose the best platform for each workload while maintaining a single source of truth, consistent governance, and real-time insight.
This white paper explores how SAP and Snowflake enable a unified business data fabric, delivering real-time, governed access to trusted enterprise data for analytics, AI, and operational decision-making without the traditional trade-offs of ETL, latency, or data duplication.
Key Takeaways
- Unify SAP and Snowflake without moving data: Access SAP data in Snowflake in real time, without replication or reconciliation overhead.
- Preserve business meaning and trust: SAP data products retain their semantics, lineage, and governance wherever they’re used.
- Accelerate AI and advanced analytics: Apply Snowflake Cortex and modern ML workflows directly to trusted SAP data.
- Simplify architecture and reduce cost: Fewer pipelines, fewer copies, and a cleaner separation of storage and compute.
- Build an AI-ready data foundation: Enable people and AI agents to work from the same governed, contextualized data fabric.
