I am aware that access to ABAP CDS views is possible in Informatica 10.4 by using the SAP Netweaver. But we have only Informatica version 10.2 Hence the below question.
Is it possible to access the ABAP CDS Views using anything other than the SAP Netweaver for Informatica Powerexchange. Is this method same (as in performance) as exposing the views as OData?
A quick Google search did not bring anything useful. I am aware that CDS views which are exposed as OData can be accessed by various libraries. Other than these options is there any alternative to accessing the ABAP CDS views using other libraries.
Are the ABAP CDS views accessible from HANA database? If so are there any library to connect to HANA from Java or Python or Informatica 10.2.
Edit [21-08]: Just came across this https://help.sap.com/viewer/f2e545608079437ab165c105649b89db/7.5.6/en-US/7c078765ec6d4e6b88b71bdaf8a2bd9f.html. I am not sure if it is part of Abap development tools?
