SAP ETL (PERFORMANCE TUNING)


PERFORMANCE TUNING

Load balance on different servers
Indexes on source tables

Use “PSA and Data target in parallel” option in the InfoPackage
Start several InfoPackages parallel with different selection options
Buffer the SID number ranges when lot of data is loaded at once
Load Master Data before loading Transaction Data
Watch out the ABAP code in transfer and Update rules – This might slow performance

Archive and delete old data
Use line item dimensions for large dimensions
Use MultiProviders to parallel query on the basic InfoCubes
Use the BW statistics InfoCube to monitor performance
Reporting authorizations slow the performance
Web reporting is faster than BEx reporting
Use the aggregate hierarchies to minimize the roll-up time
Use parallel upload and activation of ODS objects
Disable the BEx reporting flag if ODS is not used for reporting
