SAP Exam E_BW4HANA214 Topic 6 Question 40 Discussion

Actual exam question for SAP's E_BW4HANA214 exam

Question #: 40
Topic #: 6

From an SAP BW/4HANA perspective, what is the difference between SAP HANA Smart Data Access (SDA) and SAP HANA Smart Data Integration (SDI)? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question

ASDI provides options for data replication in real-time, while SDA does NOT provide this capability.

BSAP BW/4HANA Data Sources of source system type 'SAP HANA Smart Data Access (HANA_SDA)' can connect to SDA sources only, but NOT to SDI sources

CSAP BW/4HANA Open ODS Views can be modelled on SDI sources, but NOT on SDA sources

DSDA is integrated into the SAP HANA Index server while you need to set up an additional SAP HANA Data Provisioning server for SDI.

Yes, that's correct. SDI is more focused on real-time integration.

This question is a no-brainer. B and C are clearly the right answers. SAP BW/4HANA can only use SDA sources, not SDI. What were the other options even thinking?

I think the main difference is that SDI allows for real-time data replication.

A and D are correct, SDI provides real-time data replication and has a separate server, while SDA is integrated into the HANA index server. Easy peasy!
