S/4 Hana Platform in the Cloud

CeBIT 2017 offers an optimal platform to comprehensively position S/4 Hana in the cloud, the new generation of SAP ERP software.

The cloud-based ERP suite uses an innovative architecture based on in-memory technology and offers contextual analytics, a digital assistant, machine learning and the Fiori user interface.

Customers are thus able to quickly adapt business processes and new business models and make decisions based on real-time information.

S/4 Hana Cloud contains quickly activatable functions for digital business processes in various industries and business areas. Since the entry costs for a cloud ERP solution are significantly lower than for on-premise ERP solutions, the cloud version is also interesting for small and medium-sized enterprises.

The new release of S/4 Hana Cloud thus allows customers to accelerate their digital transformation and make business processes more efficient through greater transparency, automation and quality.

SAP's planned quarterly updates consist of setup wizards that are getting smarter through machine learning and AI, predefined settings that are easy to customize, and additional cloud-to-cloud integration and external programming interfaces to integrate with other applications and legacy systems.

In addition, SAP has unveiled detailed plans for blockchain capabilities to implement digital cash ledgers - as a key new topic for financial services, it will also be the focus of many discussions at CeBIT.

Extended functions for the Internet of Things are also intended to support global, digital business models. For companies, it is now a matter of realizing the optimum added value from the SAP technology on offer.

As a full-service provider, Scheer accompanies these companies on their way into the world of S/4 Hana - from conception to implementation and operation.

In addition, the Scheer experts support the development of new business models or the appropriate use of new functionalities of S/4 Hana.
