What to Look for at SAP Sapphire 2023
There’s a lot to be excited about at SAP Sapphire, and this year is no exception. As you navigate the trends, tweets, and tables throughout the conference, stay focused on the hard-hitting initiatives that are ready and able to make the biggest impact on your business.
Clean Core
It’s no secret that businesses are investing heavily into clean digital core to accelerate their transition to SAP S/4HANA Cloud and reduce their overall cost of ownership. Cleansed and right-sized data supports proper business process execution right from the onset. With big players like IBM and Syniti driving the charge, leaders initiating clean core ideologies will be positioned to take advantage of new and optimized business processes on S/4HANA and beyond.
Business Data Fabric
Enterprise data stores, reduced data duplication, and an overall increase in quality data – it's no wonder data fabrics have made a quick rise in the data management conversation recently. And now, with SAP Datawarehouse Cloud and Data Intelligence Cloud combined to form DataSphere, businesses are on the lookout for solutions that can quickly and effectively transform their data and analytics into a more unified Business Data Fabric.
Cloud-native support
The allure of the SAP S/4HANA Cloud is still a hot topic of conversation as more and more businesses look towards more unified solutions to bring their ERP to the cloud. Applications ready with cloud-native support seamlessly integrate SAP S/4HANA Cloud with your existing landscape. From data migration to integration to integrity, cloud-native solutions are delivering proven value to existing SAP S/4HANA customers and those looking to accelerate their ERP journey.
Augmented Analytics & Data Quality
The next generation of SAP Data Warehouse Cloud, SAP DataSphere promises seamless and scalable access to mission-critical data. For those who are ready with trustworthy, analysis-ready data, semantically rich data models are posed to deliver Augmented Analytics, Predictive/Planning scenarios, and Analytical Data Modeling to drive smarter business decisions. Enterprises already on the forefront of managing their data and maintaining superb data quality will be poised to take advantage of these dynamic analytics capabilities and accelerate implementation.
The True Value of Your Data
SAP technologies can create an intelligent enterprise – but implementation and investment are not as straightforward without business-ready data. Leaders are turning to data quality management solutions to help modernize faster and accelerate their journey to a more cloud-based, data-driven infrastructure. Digital transformation comes in many forms and the right journey for your business may mean incorporating many of these trends, or only one of them. One thing is for certain, however; if you’re not moving towards a more automated, data-first approach, the true value of whatever system you upgrade to or implement will remain unrealized.
