SAP Sapphire in 2026: Advancing the Autonomous Enterprise<\/p>\n

Building on\u00a0their\u00a0long-standing partnership,\u00a0AWS and SAP are making it easier for\u00a0customers\u00a0to\u00a0access mission-critical SAP data products\u00a0across AWS services, including Amazon Bedrock, Amazon Quick, and Amazon SageMaker.\u00a0This will allow\u00a0teams to\u00a0deliver\u00a0self-service analytics and\u00a0build\u00a0AI agents\u00a0across all lines of business\u2014without waiting for IT teams to replicate, prepare, and provision SAP data.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe next era of business will be defined by how well organizations turn intelligence into action at scale,\u201d said\u00a0Muhammad Alam,\u00a0member of the Executive Board of SAP SE, SAP Product &\u00a0Engineering.\u00a0\u201cBy bringing together SAP Business Data Cloud and\u00a0widely adopted\u00a0AWS\u00a0AI and analytics\u00a0capabilities, customers can\u00a0unlock the true potential of data and AI.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Enabled by SAP BDC Connect, the integration delivers near real-time, zero-copy access to semantically rich SAP data products directly through Amazon Athena, keeping data in place, preserving its original business context, and\u00a0eliminating\u00a0replication delays. Customers can query and analyze this data\u00a0immediately, or\u00a0choose to store and transform it for use across the broader AWS environment. This gives teams a governed, secure environment within AWS to easily build reports, dashboards, and AI agents.<\/p>\n

\u201cSAP and AWS share a commitment to helping customers put their most valuable data to work,\u201d said Ruba Borno, vice president of Global Specialists and Partners at AWS. \u201cBy combining SAP Business\u00a0Data Cloud with\u00a0the\u00a0AWSsecure, global infrastructure and advanced AI services,\u00a0organizations can unlock mission-critical SAP data and act on it at the speed and scale their business demands.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Create a single, trusted foundation for all their business data, SAP and\u00a0beyond\u00a0<\/p>\n
