UniverseBridge connects your data visualization apps to your SAP BusinessObjects semantic layer.

What is UniverseBridge?

Why do organizations invest in multiple business intelligence platforms? They like the interactive visualizations offered by a tool like Qlik or Tableau, but they also like the powerful backend and metadata layer of a tool like SAP BusinessObjects.
