Techniques and solutions are described for providing flexible access to data during execution of a data access request. Multiple instances of a data artifact are created, where different instances of the data artifact provide access to different data sources having data associated with the data access request. When a data access request is executed, a particular data artifact instance can be used during execution of the data access request. In some cases, switching logic can be used to determine which data artifact instance is to be used in executing the data access request. Also described are technologies for facilitating creation of data artifact instances corresponding to a modelling artifact.

Data artifact instances faciliating flexible data access

Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for retrieving metadata associated with data stored within a database system of an enterprise, the metadata being provided in a first format and being used by the first system to store and access the data, providing a document including the metadata provided in an interoperable format, processing, by a deployer, the document to provide analytics engine metadata in a second format, the analytics metadata being stored in the second system and being consumable by the DB-based analytics engine to access the data from the database system of the enterprise, and retrieving, by the DB-based analytics engine, the data from the database system of the enterprise based on the analytics metadata to provide analytics data based on the data.
