Forward thinking statements are subject to change

Bring self service to business user and more sophisticated dashboard design

You get 3 applications with SAP Lumira:

Discovery Client - catering for the self service business use cases

Designer - more of a developer tool, enterprise ready applications with JavaScripting and a command engine in the product

Add-on to the BI Platform that brings together both on the BI Platform

There is also interoperability brought in, taking a self-service story to a development environment

The two clients are sharing same graphical engine, output format (.lumx),

Really helpful Tammy. But with the new SCN we cannot click on picture to maximize them, and some of them are too small in ordet to be clearly readable. Do you have the sourcefiles somewhere?

[TammyPowlas]

Vincent - agreed

There should be source files at the recording link - go to the right.

[Former Member]

Very good, but why is it taking so long to develop functionality in Lumira that is already available in other non-SAP tools? If SAP want to remain relevant (or regain relevance?) in this field, it needs to speed up development considerably

[TammyPowlas]

Hi Martin - I don't know (I don't work for SAP)
