Introduces Native Features for Big Data, SAP HANA and SAP HANA Cloud Platform in SAP Predictive Analytics; and Kicks Off Trade-In Promotion
With the acquisition of the Roambi suite of solutions and related key assets, SAP intends to bring mobile access to analytics to everyone. In addition, SAP unveiled new predictive capabilities to analysts, developers and partners with SAP Predictive Analytics software planned for availability in the near future. Furthermore, a special trade-in promotion is now available to help users move away from other vendors’ disparate limited-functionality desktop tools to SAP offerings that aim to bring easy-to-use analytics solutions independent of IT or line-of-business needs. The announcement was jointly made at SAPinsider BI 2016, being held February 16–19 in Las Vegas, and Spark Summit East, being held February 16–18 in New York.
“The old analytics strategy-to-execution loop is not real time, agile or democratic enough to adjust to digital realities,” said Steve Lucas, president, Digital Enterprise Platform, SAP. “SAP, a global leader in analytics, has completely changed the game and is now delivering a broad set of consumer-grade analytics solutions at enterprise scale across every industry and line of business. SAP aims to deliver all-in-one analytics for everyone, available in the cloud and on premise, designed to be ubiquitous and real time — something niche players in the analytics space cannot offer.”
