CAF DataSources Used in
SAP
NetWeaver BW
A DataSource is a set of logically related fields that represent data into SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (SAP NetWeaver BW). A DataSource could be easily mistaken with JDBC DataSource, but in terms of SAP NetWeaver BW a DataSource is much like a database table definition (with its columns). Each DataSource, provided by CAF represents a specific composite application data. For more information about the specifics of the DataSources provided by CAF, see:
DataSources to Access Business Object Node Attributes
