Hi

I have a 4 yr exp in Java /j2EE. Now that I wanna really get in to datawarehousing/ Business intelligence. . So how can i make this transition from Application programming to BI Consultant.??

My options are like Informatica + SAP BO… But i wanna be in SAP technology so that I can learn other functions as time goes by and become full fledged SAP consultant .

Is SAP BI is also a reporting tool or a ETL tool??

If I learn SAP BO will that be a conflict with SAP BI?? what is the diff between SAP BI & SAP BO??

Or I shuld take SAP ABAP and start fresh ?? plz note i have some proficiency in JAVA & Oracle & stored procedures…

Plz advise me

Thx
Govardhan Ravi

  Hi
  First off, can you please answer these questions.
  1. Where are you located ?
  2. Why do you want to go into BI tools. ?
  
  I will still answer your questions hypothetically.
  
  1. SAP BI is the latest version of BW. The current version is BI 7.0 .
  2. No BO will not conflict with BI. They complement each other. BO is a pure reporting tool. BI is a combination of ETL + reporting. But the reporting part of BI was never good and thats why they bought BO a couple of years ago.
  3. If you should take up ABAP or not is dependent on your answer to Q.1 above. If you are in the US/UK, I wouldnt suggest technical modules very much ( with the exception of BW and Basis )

  Good to know you wanted to change. My advice would depend on your location. Where are you located ? If you are in the US, I suggest functional modules – Say CRM, FICO, HR , SD etc. If you are in India, I suggest technical modules like ABAP, workflow, webdypro etc. Please let me know.

I took ABAP training with MM Functional training. Worked in SAP Project management for 7 years till 2004 for IBM in US. Now, I am considering becoming an SAP consultant again and considering SAP BI. I have very good cross functional knowledge in ERP arena. Just one course away from completing CPIM.

1. Does SAP BI training need technical ABAP skills?

2. Do you offer SAP BI training online? I can come to India to learn this as well. But would prefer online training. What is the timeframe for the contact classes? Where is it offered?

3. How much does it cost?

Raja..

  The choice of modules also depends on which country you are in. Both ABAP and BW are technical modules – so if you are in the US, either of them are not good choices given the outsourcing – Functional modules are a better choice. Typically, functional modules are outsourced less. If you are from India, I strongly suggest ABAP , BW or Workflow training. But if you are from India, functional training is not suggested unless you have either an MBA or a functional background in some kind of conventional company.
