Which statement describes the "Intelligent PULL Run Mode" of Streaming Process Chains properly?

Options

• ASAP BW/HANA checks once a minute if a new record is generated in the source system. If this
• BThis concept is obsolete in SAP BW/4HANA SAP recommends leveraging the new "PUSH Run
• CSAP BW/4HANA receives a trigger from a Daemon in the source system. This event triggers the

• A
  96% (25)
• B
  4% (1)

Explanation

Option A correctly describes Intelligent PULL Run Mode because in this approach, SAP BW/4HANA actively polls the source system at a fixed interval - once per minute - to check whether new records have been generated, and only initiates a load if data is actually available, hence the "intelligent" qualifier (it doesn't load unnecessarily).

Option B is wrong because Intelligent PULL is not obsolete; it remains a supported and documented run mode in SAP BW/4HANA alongside PUSH modes. Option C describes the PUSH Run Mode, where a Daemon in the source system fires a trigger to BW/4HANA - the source initiates the process, which is the opposite of PULL. Option D describes a generic high-frequency scheduled job, which lacks the built-in source-check logic that distinguishes Intelligent PULL from a simple periodic batch.

Memory tip: Think of PULL as BW "pulling" the rope - BW initiates contact by checking the source. The "Intelligent" part means it checks smartly (once a minute) rather than blindly running a full load every time. If the source pushes, that's PUSH mode - the source holds the rope.
