What is SAP BODS?

SAP BusinessObjects Data Services (BODS) is a data integration and data quality tool. It extracts data from various sources, transforms it according to business rules, and loads it into a target system such as a data warehouse or data mart. It is commonly used for ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) processes, data migration, and data cleansing.
