where and why we use info provider,multi provider & infosets?

Answer Posted / srinivas(nani)

Infoproviders: which provide the data for reporting.
eg: infoobjects,Infocube, ODS, Multiprovider, Infosets.
(Infoproviders)

Infocube, ODS and infoobject(master data objects) are the
DATA TARGETS.

Multiprovider : these are virtual Infoproviders.
Multiproviders does not contain any data physicaly.
It will combine the data from different providers & make
the data available as one to the single user.
we can combine the data from Infocube, oDS, infoobjects and
infosets by using UNION operation.

Infoset: same as above but here we can combine the data
from ODS & Infoobjects only by using JOIN operation.
