SAP's recent update to its Operational Data Provisioning (ODP) framework has restricted third-party access, potentially disrupting data flows for businesses that rely on the ecosystem. CData's SAP connectivity remains unaffected as it does not rely on ODP API for data extraction. Instead, CData uses a combination of RFC APIs and OData Connectivity via the SAP Gateway to automate SAP data extraction despite the ban. This allows organizations to maintain real-time data access and integration capabilities without interruption while enhancing the interoperability of SAP data with external applications.
