SAP S/4 HANA

SAP HANA is an innovative in-memory computing platform available to power SAP Business One. The software allows businesses to capture and analyse information across all applications, unleashing the potential of big data. Thanks to SAP HANA, large amounts of information can be processed in a fraction of the time, delivering real-time analytics, transactions, forecasting and unprecedented insight across your business.

It's a common myth that SAP HANA is primarily suitable for big businesses, with vast amounts of data to process. When in fact, the solution can benefit any business, in any industry, offering information and insight in real time and unlocking the ability to improve company processes and profitability. HANA enables small and medium sized businesses to innovate and grow, whilst cutting down on IT complexities. So if your company would benefit from better oversight across its operations, SAP HANA could be the solution for you.

Plus, adoption of SAP Business One on the HANA platform, as opposed to an SQL server, is futureproofing your company's technological infrastructure.

Ultimate sophistication: simplicity.

From a business value perspective, this means that SAP S/4HANA creates unique opportunities to reinvent business models and drive new revenues and profits.

First, enterprises can now easily connect to people, devices, and business networks to deliver new value to their customers on any channel – the Internet of Things and Big Data become accessible to any business.

Second, enterprises can dramatically simplify their processes, drive them in real time and change them as needed to gain new efficiencies – no more batch processing is required.

And finally, business users can now get any insight on any data from anywhere in real-time: planning, execution, prediction, and simulation – decisions may be made on the fly with a high level of granularity for faster business impact.

From an IT value perspective, this means that SAP S/4HANA creates unique opportunities to simplify the landscape and help reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) with SAP HANA as the great simplifier.

First, enterprises can now reduce their data footprint and work with larger data sets in one system (for example, ERP, CRM, SRM, SCM, PLM co-deployed) to save hardware costs, operational costs, and time)

Second, innovation is also made simple with an open platform (SAP HANA Cloud Platform) to drive advanced applications – for example, predicting, recommending, and simulating – while protecting existing investments.

Third, business users can leverage a simple and role-based user experience based on modern design principles which minimizes training efforts while increases productivity. We also support customers with simple configuration: setting up the system and during its use.

And finally, enterprises get choice of deployment: cloud, on premise, and even hybrid to drive quick time-to-value.
