Big Data Warehousing

Big Data Warehousing is the backbone of modern analytics ecosystems, combining high-volume data processing with business intelligence tools like SAP BW/4HANA and SAP Data Hub. 

Question 1:

Which component is primarily responsible for orchestrating and managing the big data landscape in a Big Data Warehouse architecture?

A) SAP BW/4HANA
B) SAP Data Hub
C) SAP Vora
D) Hadoop File System (HDFS)

Correct Answer: B) SAP Data Hub

Explanation:
SAP Data Hub is the central orchestrator in Big Data Warehouse architecture. It manages, processes, and integrates both structured and unstructured data by linking core systems (like SAP BW/4HANA) with big data platforms such as Hadoop. This orchestration ensures streamlined data flow, improved governance, and enhanced pipeline automation.

Question 2:

What is the purpose of the "Start SAP Data Hub Graph" process type in SAP BW/4HANA?

A) To transfer data to SAP Vora
B) To start data workflows that end after a specific time
C) To manage metadata connections
D) To distribute data to HDFS

Correct Answer: B) To start data workflows that end after a specific time

Explanation:
This process type triggers graphs (data workflows) that begin within SAP BW/4HANA and complete after a defined duration. It enables automation in data integration and pipeline execution, aligning with SAP Data Hub’s orchestration capabilities.

Question 3:

Which of the following is a valid method for transferring data from SAP BW/4HANA to SAP Vora or cloud storage?

A) Using the Metadata Explorer
B) Using the Data Transfer Operator in SAP Data Hub
C) Using the SPARK SQL Adapter
D) Using the Start SAP Data Hub Graph process

Correct Answer: B) Using the Data Transfer Operator in SAP Data Hub

Explanation:
The Data Transfer Operator is a key feature of SAP Data Hub that enables secure and structured transfer of data from SAP BW/4HANA to SAP Vora or other cloud environments. It ensures that enterprise data reaches analytical platforms without data loss or transformation issues.

Question 4:

What is the role of the Open Hub Destination with HDFS File storage location in SAP BW/4HANA?

A) To start process chains in SAP Data Hub
B) To distribute data from SAP BW/4HANA to Hadoop File System
C) To connect SAP BW/4HANA with Metadata Explorer
D) To execute SPARK SQL queries

Correct Answer: B) To distribute data from SAP BW/4HANA to Hadoop File System

Explanation:
This setup allows users to export data from SAP BW/4HANA into HDFS, enabling the use of Hadoop’s scalable storage and processing power. It serves as a bridge for hybrid data warehousing models.

Question 5:

Which SAP Data Hub feature allows users to connect SAP BW/4HANA with the Metadata Explorer?

A) Data Transfer Operator
B) Process Orchestration
C) Metadata Governance
D) Big Data Source System

Correct Answer: C) Metadata Governance

Explanation:
Metadata Governance connects SAP BW/4HANA to SAP Data Hub’s Metadata Explorer, giving users access to lineage, profiling, and metadata management capabilities. This feature ensures regulatory compliance and data transparency.
