BW - Open Hub

The open hub destination is the object that allows you to distribute data from a BI system to non-SAP data marts, analytical applications, and other applications. It ensures controlled distribution across multiple systems.

BW objects such as InfoCubes, ODS objects, or InfoObjects (attributes or texts) can act as open hub data sources. You can select database tables or flat files as open hub destinations. Both a full and a delta mode are also available as the extraction mode.

You can use the data transfer process to update data to the open hub destination. This involves transforming the data. Not all rule types are available in the transformation for an open hub destination: Reading master data, time conversion, currency translation, and unit conversion are not available.
