SAP News Analyses - SAP doubles down on Technology
One acquisition + a product launch + a developer conference =
10 press releases – here are the top takeaways:
• SAP (hybris) acquires Gigya – a combined IAM and DaaS play with potential
• SAP gets back into EIM with SAP Data Hub, opinionated, with modern elements
• HANA Express is on Azure, Docker, Google Cloud, Huawei Cloud (!), SAP Store
• SAP Cloud Platform partners with Mendix (low code), Egnyte & Built.io (content),
new mobile services, beta on GCP, beta for ABAP, Jam APIs, SAP joins CNCF + OAI,
adds S/4HANA Cloud SDK.
MyPOV: Good for SAP ecosystem to see SAP investing in & committing
to technology. The challenge for customers is now choice.
Kudos for ABAP on SAP CP, largest SAP developer community.
