Redbook Abstract
SAP Business Information Warehouse on the AS/400 System, SG24-5200-00
  Abstract
This redbook explores the SAP Business Information Warehouse (BW) on the AS/400 system. It takes a close look at the tasks and functions that are specific for the AS/400 environment, rather than the BW generic task. This redbook is designed to assist AS/400 technical specialists and SAP Basis consultants in implementing this technology.

As you read this redbook, you uncover valuable information that includes:

- Terminology and an overview of BW and AS/400 features - The BW setup - Recommendations for backup and recovery procedures - Examples on how to load the BW with operational data from an online transactional processing (OLTP) system that runs a company’s day-to-day business (requires that you already understand BW administrator tasks related to the creation of a data warehouse in BW) - Hints on how to improve the performance of the AS/400 BW system (assumes that you are fairly skilled in SAP R/3-AS/400 performance topics) - Preliminary sizing recommendations based on tests and SAP recommendations
