MetaFlow Connector for SAP

SAP systems hold some of your organization’s most critical data – but in Microsoft Purview, they often remain invisible.

The MetaFlow Connector for SAP bridges that gap by seamlessly integrating SAP ERP, BW, HANA, SAC, and more into Purview’s data catalog. It automatically maps data flows and KPIs across systems, giving you full transparency and traceability – from dashboards back to source tables. Built on trusted SAP metadata technology and deployed in your own environment, the connector ensures your data stays secure and up to date.

Unlock Complete SAP Lineage & Metadata in Purview:

Our connector delivers rich SAP metadata into Microsoft Purview’s unified data catalog, far beyond the limits of Purview’s default connectors.
This deployable connector (installed on your infrastructure) integrates metadata from SAP BW (including BW/4HANA), SAP ECC, S/4HANA, SAP HANA, SAP Analytics Cloud, SAP Datasphere, and even ABAP code into Purview.
Unlike the out-of-the-box scanners, it captures cross-system data relationships – for example, tracing how a BW report draws from an ECC table or how a Power BI dashboard links to SAP data.

Solve SAP Metadata Pain Points:

SAP landscapes are notorious for complex, opaque data models. Default Purview connectors only scratch the surface, often missing modern systems and deep lineage. This leaves critical gaps and no end-to-end visibility.
Our connector closes these gaps by ingesting detailed SAP metadata (down to fields and descriptions) and stitching lineage across SAP systems.
We bridge silos so data governance leaders can see the full data flow from source to analytics, finally including SAP’s “black box” systems.
