NextTables-Easy Table Maintenance on any Data Plattform

What NextTables is: NextTables provides one central no- & low-code hub to create apps for governed data maintenance. It connects to your existing data platforms with live read and writeback, so changes are reflected in real time in reporting and analytics (like SAP Analytics Cloud, PowerBI, Tableau and others).

What “data maintenance” means: the repeatable, business-driven updates that keep analytics and operations running—master data attributes (groups/flags/texts), business rule tables for transformations, authorization-related tables, and decentralized input tables (for example ESG / EU taxonomy).

Single source of truth by design: the data remains where it is stored already (your connected platform), helping you avoid the security and governance challenges of creating parallel “spreadsheet” or external SaaS data silos.

Business value

Work confidently, without waiting and without Excel cycles.

• Self-service updates: business users maintain data independently instead of creating tickets and waiting for uploads.
• Find records fast: integrated text search helps users locate the right objects without memorizing technical IDs.
• Fewer errors at the source: technical validations, master data validation, and value help guide users and prevent mistakes before they impact reporting.
• Immediate impact: writeback updates are available instantly for dashboards and reports through real-time access.

IT, security & governance value

Enable autonomy without losing control.

• Enterprise-ready governance: controlled writeback mechanisms designed for repeatable, defensible processes and reduced operational risk.
• Auditability: supports traceable, explainable change processes compared to uncontrolled spreadsheet workflows.
• Minimal persistence: NextTables stores only what is required to operate the application (e.g., configuration and metadata). Business data remains in the connected customer platform.
• Cross-platform governance: standardize maintenance across platforms (e.g. SAP Datasphere/HANA, Databricks, PostgreSQL) with one interface and governance approach— including cross-platform validation scenarios (e.g., using master data from one platform to validate inputs written to another).

Proven use cases

• Master data maintenance: maintain product groupings/flags/texts without “Export to and Import from Excel” cycles.
• Authorization maintenance: maintain access-control related tables with immediate effectiveness and governance guardrails.
• Decentralized data collection: collect validated subsidiary inputs directly into the platform for ESG / EU taxonomy reporting.
• Business rule tables: maintain transformation/logic tables in a controlled, repeatable process.
• Operational KPI capture & lightweight planning: make offline KPIs available for dashboards and simple operational scenarios.

Integrations, hosting & onboarding

• Hosting: Microsoft Azure (West Europe region).
• Connectors: SAP Datasphere / SAP HANA, Databricks, PostgreSQL.
• Authentication: Microsoft Entra ID, Google, or email/password.
• Provisioning flow: after purchase or trial activation, customers are redirected to an external signup page to provide provisioning details for tenant deployment.
