Overview of SAP OData Connector stage
IBM InfoSphere SAP OData Connector stage was introduced in version 8.2. Using this stage, you can extract the data from SAP systems by using the SAP exposed OData services. SAP OData Connector stage supports extraction of data from SAP on-premises systems that are supported by SAP Pack and SAP S/4 HANA Cloud Systems.
Prerequisites for SAP OData Connector stage
SAP OData Connector stage supports extraction of data from SAP on-premise systems supported with SAP Pack as well as SAP S/4 HANA Cloud Systems. For on-premise SAP systems, it is required to have component SAP Gateway Foundation (SAP_GWFND) installed. This component is available from SAP NetWeaver 7.40 SPS01 & SAP NetWeaver 7.50 SPS00.
Importing metadata for SAP OData service using IMAM
Before you use the SAP OData Connector to extract data, you need to use InfoSphere® Metadata Asset Manager to import the metadata of the SAP OData service. The imported metadata is then saved in the metadata repository.
Making the service metadata available in DataStage
In order to use the OData Service metadata and selected entity sets (previously imported using IMAM) in DataStage jobs, you need to make it available in DataStage Designer. This is accomplished through the table definitions.
