Internet of things in Manufacturing using SAP Hana

How Internet of things ( IoT ) are relevant to manufacturing space is a widely debated topic. As a goal of IoT  tries to deploy vast network of sensors, actuators and connect them with wire or wirelessly leveraging internet protocol. If you look at this basic goal or need then its obvious that there is major scope in manufacturing IT domain. Looking at the trends in manufacturing for two decades or so there is tremendous increase in usage of automation technologies or robotics. At larger context primarily all these IP enabled equipment’s and systems need to be integrated interms of data and hardware with larger SAP system. Its a interesting way to utilize SAP Hana in a cost effective way for real time manufacturing data.  I am proposing to utilize SAP Hana for collection and analysis of real time manufacturing data  and integrate the same with enterprise level SAP platform. I am sure seasoned enterprise architects  in manufacturing environment can put more light from technical perspective to make this solution work.

SAP Lumira Desktop Preparation and Presentation

Data Source

The first thing to understand is that SAP Lumira cannot be directly connected to the SAP HRF column view “SAP_HRF”.“sap.demo-store.sales.resources ::Sales Analysis.VIEW”. The SAP Lumira data source must be a cube such as those created by an Analytic View or a Calculation View. I therefore need to build one of these against my rule service column view.
