How to connect to database/How to bring live data

[vinay_mhaske]

Hello Experts,

I am new to SAP UI5 and have few questions:

1. Can we connect directly to any Database (SQL Server, Oracle, SAP BW etc) and bring data to SAP UI5 app?
2. Can we connect to a Web Service to get live data in SAP UI5 app?
3. Are there any SAP  official tutorials for UI5? Could you share the link?

Would appreciate if you can share any guides or tutorials and help me to start with SAP UI5.

Thank you.

Hi Vinaykumar,

1. Can we connect directly to any Database (SQL Server, Oracle, SAP BW etc) and bring data to SAP UI5 app?
   A: No. You need a server side appplication to provide data
   
   
2. Can we connect to a Web Service to get live data in SAP UI5 app?
   A: Yes. But not all types of WS
   
   
3. Are there any SAP official tutorials for UI5? Could you share the link?
   A: I don't know if there are another tutorials besides the ones that we have here in the SAPUI5 space. In my humble opinion the developer guide is a very good starting point.
   
   

Best regards,
