A BW Workspace enables business users to create ad-hoc scenarios for rapid prototyping. A BW workspace is an area where new models can be created based on central data from the BW system and local data. Workspaces can be managed and controlled by a central IT department and used by local special departments. This means you can quickly adjust to new and changing requirements. The aim of workspaces is to bridge the gap between the central requirements and the flexibility required locally. Central architected data marts from the IT department can be combined, in a workspace, with data marts from the specialized departments.
Open ODS views enable you to define BW data models for objects like database tables. database views or BW DataSources (for direct access). These data models allow flexible integration without the need to create InfoObjects. This flexible type of data integration makes it possible to consume external data sources in BW without staging, combine data sources with BW models and physically integrate (load) external data sources by creating DataSources.
S/4HANA supports a new data model by providing a ready-to-use content using CDS view.

I would like to share an easy and effective solution that I tried a couple of days ago for one of my business requirements. The business users already had a lot of xcelsius dashboards in production that were built a few years ago and I was converting one of the dashboards to Design studio. One of the key feature that is not directly available in Design studio is to display alerts on the crosstab. Xcelsius had a variety of options to display these alerts and the users were very specific on having a particular kind of alerts shown up on the dashboard. So, this is what I did and I thought it would be helpful for some others as well.
