Connect different OneStream SaaS deployments
Hi Folks,
We're just starting on a OneStream SaaS implementation to replace HFM.
We're far from the stage of actively working on any data integrations yet but I'm already starting to think about ...
Forum Discussion
To my knowledge, this is not possible for SaaS (but curious to see if I am wrong). For control purposes you can't just push data to a OneStream instance - data ingestion typically comes from pulling data into OneStream. The work around would be to just use web api's to transfer the data.
I recommend looking in to Cube Data Manager (located on the Solution Exchange) for a starting framework. This tool shows connecting 2 different SaaS instances (e.g. a DEV or PROD environment) for data exchange leveraging the OS REST web api and PAT (personal access tokens).
Thanks for the input Big_Rick_CPM
Were anything like this to be possible, you would obviously need to have some controls in place between involved parties but it would be nice to be able to traverse the Azure backbone with any REST API calls rather than punching out to the web and then back into Azure again. Or maybe I'm just cyber-paranoid 😃
I'll be sure to check out the Cube Data Manager you mention, thanks for the pointer, appreciated 😉
