SAP leans on Databricks to unify business analytics in the cloud

General News

Summary

• SAP unveiled a cloud-based analytics and data engineering solution designed in partnership with Databricks Thursday. As autonomous agents spread across the vendor landscape, SAP is banking on the rich stores of enterprise data that flow through its ERP software to draw customers to cloud. The analytics and AI solution announced Thursday is the latest migration enticement the company has added to its growing SaaS portfolio. “There are tens of thousands of customers on-prem who need to migrate to the cloud,” Yu said, noting that many have decades of data already stored on SAP Business Warehouse. “Customers spend millions of dollars trying to bring this data together in a way that harmonizes the data model with some level of governance and quality.” The new solution will gradually envelop SAP Datasphere, a cloud-based service introduced in 2023 and built into the SAP Business Technology Platform enterprise application suite, the company said.
