India <\/strong>\u2014<\/em> SAP India<\/a>, today announced key data innovations and partnerships that give customers access to mission-critical data, enabling faster time to insights and better business decision-making.<\/p>\n

SAP announced SAP Datasphere solution, the next generation of its data management portfolio, which give customers easy access to business-ready data across the data landscape. SAP also introduced strategic partnerships with industry-leading data and AI companies \u2013Confluent Inc., Databricks Inc., Collibra NV, and DataRobot Inc. \u2013 to enrich SAP Datasphere and allow organizations to create a unified data architecture that securely combines SAP software data and non-SAP data.<\/p>\n

Until today, accessing and using data located in disparate systems and locations \u2013 across cloud providers, data vendors and on-premises systems \u2013 has been a complex challenge. Customers have had to extract data from original sources and export it to a central location, losing critical business context along the way and recapturing it only through ongoing, dedicated IT projects, and manual effort. With today\u2019s announcements, SAP Datasphere helps eliminate this hidden data tax, enabling customers to build a business data fabric architecture that quickly delivers meaningful data with business context and logic intact.<\/p>\n

\u201cIndia, which is set to become the world’s 3rd largest economy with a large, connected population, produces an immense volume of data in various sectors. With SAP customers generating 87% of total global commerce, SAP data is one of the most valuable business assets that power the critical functions of an organization, from manufacturing to supply chain, finance, human resources, and more,\u201d said Bharat Sandhu, SVP, AI & Application Development Platform, SAP.<\/strong> “We want to help our customers take the next step to efficiently and confidently integrate SAP data with non-SAP data while preserving all the related business context and logic to unleash the power of business data.\u201d<\/p>\n

SAP Datasphere<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Available today, SAP Datasphere is the next generation of the SAP Data Warehouse Cloud solution. It enables data professionals to deliver scalable access to mission-critical business data. With a unified experience for data integration, data cataloging, semantic modeling, data warehousing, data federation and data virtualization, SAP Datasphere enables data professionals to help distribute mission-critical business data \u2013 with business context and logic preserved \u2013 across their organization\u2019s data landscape. SAP Datasphere is built on SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), which includes strong enterprise security capabilities, such as database security, encryption, and governance. No additional steps or migrations are required for existing customers of SAP Data Warehouse Cloud, who will benefit from new SAP Datasphere functionality in their product environment. New functionality includes data cataloging that automatically discovers, manages, and governs data; simplified data replication to deliver data and its constant updates in real-time; and enhanced data modeling that preserves the rich business context of data in SAP applications. Additional application integration capabilities that link data and metadata from cloud solutions from SAP to SAP Datasphere are planned.<\/p>\n

Strategic Partnerships<\/strong><\/h2>\n

SAP and its new open-data partners will help hundreds of millions of users across the world make informed business-critical decisions rooted in massive amounts of data. SAP\u2019s strategic partners provide the unique strengths of their ecosystems and enable customers to combine all their data like never before.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody wants access to SAP data, so leveraging partnerships among tech suppliers is absolutely necessary for a comprehensive data strategy,\u201d said Dan Vesset, group vice president of data and analytics market research, IDC<\/strong>. \u201cOrganizations today live in a world where a multi-cloud, multivendor and off- and on-premises data landscape is the norm. SAP is taking a new approach by partnering with a select group of leading partners, treating third-party data as a first-class citizen to better meet the needs of customers.\u201d<\/p>\n
