Microsoft Fabric: Open Mirroring opens up new possibilities for data integration

Today’s organisations face the challenge of efficiently processing huge amounts of business data from SAP systems and making it available in modern analytics platforms. Our innovative solution, dab Nexus, fulfils this need by seamlessly transferring SAP data to Microsoft Fabric using Open Mirroring technology, eliminating complex and inefficient workarounds.
The most important facts in brief:
- Real-time mirroring: Open Mirroring enables the direct and almost real-time transfer of SAP data to Microsoft Fabric.
- Two flexible approaches: Open Mirroring for fast data replication and Lakehouse for structured data processing.
- User-friendly: No loss of performance or complex configurations required on the SAP system.
- Future-proof: Fully integrated into Microsoft Fabric and ideal for modern data analyses such as reporting and process mining.
Direct data integration without detours: Efficient and simple
In contrast to conventional methods, which first store data in SQL servers or as csv files and then load them into Microsoft Fabric, our solution enables direct and detour-free transfer to Microsoft Fabric. The key to this is the Open Mirroring technology developed by Microsoft, which allows data to be mirrored almost in real time. This mirroring allows organisations to respond faster to business transactions while leveraging the data analytics capabilities of the Power Automate platform, such as reporting in Power BI or process mining.
Two approaches to SAP data integration: Flexible and customised to customer requirements
Our solution offers two methods for users to integrate SAP data directly into Microsoft Fabric:
- Microsoft Fabric Open Mirroring: Data replication at the touch of a button
For the Open Mirroring connection, data is transferred directly and without detours from your SAP systems to the Open Mirroring interface. The delta files are processed automatically on the basis of Microsoft’s Open Mirroring technology. - Microsoft Fabric Lakehouse: The flexible plan B
If you don’t want to create a pure raw data mirroring, you may be better off in the Lakehouse. Here too, data is transferred directly and without detours from your SAP systems to the Lakehouse interface and merged using our own algorithms.
Regardless of which of the two methods you choose: You can then utilise your SAP data for all Microsoft Fabric functionalities.
Technological advantage and simple use of the Open Mirroring: User-friendly and highly efficient
Our solution is one of the first to be fully integrated into Microsoft Fabric and to support Open Mirroring. Without any additional steps or performance losses in the SAP system, it offers user-friendly operation that does not require any complex database configurations in SAP. Thanks to our SAP certifications and close partnership with Microsoft, we guarantee first-class, future-proof integration.
(Near) Real-Time Mirroring: Decision-relevant data almost in real time
Mirroring technology ensures that data from SAP is provided almost in real-time. Although there is a minimal time lag between data creation in SAP and mirroring, this is negligible for almost all approaches in the areas of reporting, data analysis and AI approaches. This gives companies the speed they need to take their data-based decisions to the next level.
Maximum performance without compromising: Efficient, reliable and resource-saving
Our solution is designed to extract large amounts of data efficiently and without impacting SAP system performance. The world’s leading companies rely on our technology to ensure that their data analyses are always up to date and that their full potential is realised.
