Organisations today are under increasing pressure to do more with their data: extract deeper insights, enable faster decision-making, and unlock new sources of value through AI and ML toolsets. Yet, for many enterprises running SAP, one of the biggest roadblocks remains the same: data fragmentation. Siloed systems and the complexity of SAP data structures often limit access to the information needed for next-generation analytics. That’s why the collaboration between SAP, Databricks, and Applexus is so significant.
In this session, Srinivasan Kumar, Absoft’s Data and Analytics expert, and Charles Smith, who leads on sales and also brings solid hands-on experience with data and analytics, will walk you through how SAP Business Data Cloud, in combination with the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform, enables seamless access to SAP data, without the need for replication or costly workarounds. Together, these platforms break down traditional data silos and create a unified, governed environment for building AI and machine learning applications at scale.
Attendees will explore how zero-copy data sharing, delta sharing and prebuilt, semantically rich data products make it possible to develop end-to-end AI/ML use cases using real-time, business-contextualised data. A key highlight of the session will be a live demonstration: forecasting cash position using SAP data within Databricks. This hands-on example showcases how intelligent forecasting can drive greater financial agility and inform strategic investment decisions.
The agenda also includes a detailed walkthrough of the technical architecture, key features of SAP Business DataCloud, and a real-world case study that brings these capabilities to life. Whether you’re a Chief Information Officer, Chief Financial Officer, IT Director, Data Scientist or Analytics Solution Architect, this session offers practical guidance on how to turn SAP data into a dynamic asset for innovation.
If you're looking to modernise your data landscape, increase agility, and operationalise AI in your organisation, this session is not to be missed. Join us to see how SAP and Databricks can help transform your enterprise with intelligent data capabilities.
