SAP Lumira Extension – Population Pyramid
I will be perfectly honest when I say I was not the biggest fan of SAP Lumira (previously Visual Intelligence) when it was first released. I found it to be an imitation of a rather good product already available in the market and several cycles behind in terms of functionality. Still within the last 18 […]

I recently got asked this by a customer of ours and it sparked the idea to put it into a blog post for those who are looking for a similar solution The blog posts and guides that I found when researching this would grant SAP Lumira access to all the views on your HANA server […]

SAP Lumira 1.17 Now Available with Direct Access to BEx Queries
I was pleasantly surprised this morning when I clicked on SAP Lumira and saw the following message pop up; SAP Lumira 1.17 is now generally available for download directly from the tool without even having to go to the SAP Marketplace (this feature has been available for some time, Kudos to SAP!). I have been eagerly […]
Enterprise BI is for Curmudgeons
This post is my final thought of my prior post on SAP Lumira from a few weeks back. I really hope you’ll find us talking about this over on dslayer.net soon. In my career I’ve been a Business Objects guy for going on 15 years and an IT guy for even longer. That gives me some longevity here in […]

As of SAP Lumira SP12, users now have the added ability to connect their SAP Netweaver BW data to Lumira. However, a quick glance at the available connections for SAP Lumira and you will not find a connection called “Business Warehouse”. One way around that would be to get your BW data onto HANA. If […]
SAP Lumira Eats SAP BusinessObjects Logs for Lunch
A few weeks back, it occurred to me that one of the common debugging tools used for mass log munging here was Splunk, but I had something new in my bag of tricks…SAP Lumira. Why? If you’ve ever spent time analyzing SAP BusinessObjects server trace logs, you know this is not necessarily a “fun” activity. […]
SAP Lumira 1.12 Initial Impressions
I’ve enjoyed the pace at which SAP Lumira has come along over the last year. Like most, I’ve been chomping the bit for v1.12 to release since we got a glimpse of it at ASUG SBOUC in September. I caught a tweet today that it was out on the SAP Market Place (not yet available […]
