Connection to UNX universe

How is the connection from Design Studio made to the universe? I know how to do it in the product and that works, but what is the internal mechanism? Is it a web service like Xcelsius? I would like to know a little bit about the nuts and bolts of this process.

Thank you!

Susan - the SAP Help has a nice architecture diagram - see https://help.sap.com/doc/08b869bee3a641bd99d9a7a34b1cbd0a/4.2/en-US/Architecture%20BI%20platform%204... - this may answer your questions

Thanks Tammy. That really helps. When the dashboard is rendered I know it's HTML5 and javascript. Is ajax included? Is it true that jQuery and Ajax are only supported if you use the SDK? This is not clear to me. Thanks again!

The official SAP Help says to read the data access guide https://help.sap.com/doc/businessobject_product_guides_sbo41_en_sbo41sp8_data_acs_en_pdf/4.1.8/en-US... which doesn't mention AJAX

Hi Susan - I don't know if it is a web service, but following this SAP note https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/1983117 it uses the DSL Bridge and Connectivity Services that are part of the BI platform
