What is bdc-connect-sharing?

A set of instructions for SAP BDC Connect, which shares data products between SAP Business Data Cloud and systems such as Databricks or Snowflake without copying the data.

Sharing data products in either direction, using Delta Sharing, generating products from BW or BW/4HANA, managing their lifecycle, and working with ORD and CSN metadata.

It explains how to publish, access, and manage shared data while keeping one source of truth and preserving its metadata.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00146	$0.05982
Opus 5	$0.00073	$0.02991
Sonnet 5	$0.00029	$0.01196
Haiku 4.5	$0.00015	$0.00598

Security

Grade A, and why

bdc-connect-sharing scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

BDC Connect Overview

BDC Connect enables zero-copy, bidirectional data product sharing between SAP Business Data Cloud and external systems like Databricks and Snowflake. Instead of replicating data, BDC Connect uses Delta Sharing (an open protocol) to provide direct, secure access to a single source of truth.

Key benefits:

Bidirectional: Share BDC catalog data OUT to Databricks/Snowflake, or publish external Databricks shares back INTO BDC
Zero-copy: No data duplication; recipients access tables directly
Rich metadata: ORD (Open Resource Discovery) and CSN (Core Schema Notation) describe what data means and how to work with it
Full lifecycle control: Create, update, publish, unpublish data products

Prerequisites:

SAP Business Data Cloud provisioned with Datasphere tenant
For external partner shares: Databricks or Snowflake workspace configured
BDC catalog asset access (requires Catalog Asset –R–––––– and Cloud Data Product -----S- privileges)

ORD Metadata Structure

ORD (Open Resource Discovery) provides human-discoverable metadata about a data product.

Mandatory ORD fields (required for all data products):

title: Short, clear name (e.g., "Customer Order")
shortDescription: One-sentence summary (e.g., "Offering access to all customer orders")
description: Detailed explanation (must NOT contain shortDescription)

Optional ORD fields (include if you want them to appear):

labels: Functional grouping (e.g., ["sales", "orders"])
tags: Technical tags (e.g., ["storage", "high-availability"])
industry: Applicable industries (e.g., ["Retail", "Public Sector"])
lineOfBusiness: LOB scope (e.g., ["Sales"])
deprecationDate: When data product will be retired (ISO 8601 timestamp)
sunsetDate: Final removal date (ISO 8601 timestamp)
successors: Array of replacement data product URIs
correlationIds: Links to source systems (e.g., ["sap.s4:communicationScenario:SAP_COM_0008"])
dataProductLinks: Relationships to other data products
links: Documentation, support, terms URLs
documentationLabels: Organized documentation links

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
