The SAP BW in its first versions merely set a first step in the path to information. The creation of InfoCubes as a foundation for the OLAP engine enabled end users to access and analyze data. SAP BW has on optional add-on called Open Hub that is part of the SAP Business Intelligence Solution. The Open Hub add-on provides services to manage the extraction and data movement from the SAP BW to SAP BW data marts, as well as to non-SAP data marts and analytical applications.

SAP BW is one of the few data warehouse products that offer an integrated, one-stop-shopping user interface for administering and monitoring SAP BW: the administration services available through the Administrator Workbench
