Zusammenfassung: | Embodiments relate to converting data object(s) from a multi-source database environment into a single-source database environment. Such a conversion may be desirable to increase performance and/or reduce consumption of processing resources. An engine is configured to receive a multi-source database universe from a repository. The engine analyzes that universe to identify details thereof for conversion, e.g., connections, tables, views, alias tables, etc. A new single-source connection is registered, and then the single-source universe is re-generated through a universe conversion algorithm, an automatic function mapping algorithm, and a query generation algorithm. Embodiments avoid labor intensive manual re-creation of the universe, and may be implemented as an automatic conversion wizard also updating dependent report queries per new single-source query patterns. Particular embodiments converting from multi-source database environment available from SAP AG, may utilize a Software Design Kit (SDK) to create a migration plug-in as part of an Information Design Tool (IDT). |
