SAP® BusinessObjects™ CMS Queries and Java SDK Programming is written for SAP BusinessObjects system administrators who need to gain more value or efficiency from the BI Platform.

You will learn about the CMS Query engine — the mechanism for extracting valuable metadata on users and groups, scheduling, and more. Many real-world sample queries are included.

Next, you will be introduced to the powerful BI Platform Java SDK. You will learn how to automate tasks that would normally require a significant amount of manual effort, or could simply not be done with the “out of the box” application components. Several complete scripts are provided for achieving common needs, such as creating schedules and users, extracting security rights, and displaying server status information.

You will also be introduced to the Program Object Management Pattern, a series of methodologies for creating scalable, enterprise-grade system management utilities.

Several reference tables are provided to augment the official SAP BusinessObjects documentation, including:

• InfoObject property reference
• Built-in IDs and CUIDs
• InfoObject relationship detail
