Unique combination of IP, domain experts, & delivery capabilitiesUnique combination of IP, domain experts, & delivery capabilities

Project: Customer wanted to empower their business users with ad-hoc analysis and self-service BI, whilereducing the footprint of their BI landscape through consolidation of existing platforms on to SAP BOBJ.Thishad to be done with minimal involvement from business users.

Differentiator : Ability to deliver a complete migration to SAP BOBJ using its IP-based Rolta SmartMigrate™for BI, enable self-service BI, and deliver this with high quality, predictable rollouts, and a high degree ofautomation.

BI Migration to BOBJ

Project: Customer has about 15,000 critical reports (Support Assist and Part Sales), that need to bemigrated from Microstrategy (Teradata) to Business Objects (Teradata). For initial Pilot, client selected45 reports that would contain a ‘mix’ of features in Microstrategy such as: Intelligent Cubes, Snowflakeschema based model, Object Prompts, User Defined folders, Multi-pass SQL, MSTR projects sourcingfrom multiple databases, Dashboard content with static text downloadable to pdf files

Differentiator: Rolta delivered a working ‘Universe’ based SAP Business Object metadata, along withall reports migrated, and, 2 dashboards that were manually built. The actual migration time took lessthan 6 weeks (includes setup, access and connectivity times), and, the ‘mix’ had 15 simple reports (90 -100% automation), 20 medium complex reports (80% automation) and 10 highly complex reports (60%automation). Performance of reports is faster than Microstrategy. Rolta is now working with client on‘waves’ planning for delivering approximately 1000 reports per quarter.
