What does the future look like for Analytics?

Timo Elliott, Global Innovation Evangelist at SAP will present SAP’s Analytics Digital Strategy.

Analytics is no longer just about better decisions, it’s now at the heart of new digital business models, and new technology opportunities are breaking down traditional barriers to getting the full value of BI & Analytics in your organisation. Hear about SAP’s overall analytics strategy, including:

  • Why the role of BI & Analytics experts is more strategic than ever.
  • The role of analytics in SAP Leonardo and digital business, including IoT, Blockchain, Machine Learning and more.
  • New AI-enabled, “translytical” applications that blur the differences between operations and analytics and making existing data investments strategic than ever.
  • New Data Hub approaches to big data warehousing.
  • A new platform for monetizing information in new ways, turning information more directly into income.
  • The rising importance of Hybrid Cloud/On-premise BI and SAP’s roadmap for Smart Data Discovery.
  • Concrete steps towards your analytics future with SAP.

Chris Kernaghan from Bluefin will present SAP Data hub - The conduit to higher level analytics. Data powers knowledge, insight and action. The challenge is getting the right data into the reports with the shortest pipeline, alongside automating actions from your data.

Chris Kernaghan, SAP Mentor and data expert, looks at how you can improve data access by shortening data pipelines. Using SAP Analytics Cloud and BusinessObjects, he will demonstrate how data sources can be fed by SAP Data hub to provide insight and drive actions, opening a whole world of possibilities to you when it comes to real time data, data life cycle management, as well as reporting.

The keynote will cover:

  • What is Data hub, what it is not
  • Challenges Bluefin's customers have with data automation
  • How Bluefin can solve those with Data hub and automation
  • Show some examples of data pipelines and reports
