SAP-Solution: Security

AI makes it possible to detect vulnerabilities in open-source software more quickly. This poses a challenge for companies, as they are struggling to keep up with identifying and patching dependencies and affected components.

With the SAP Edge Integration Cell, Kubernetes is making its way into many SAP environments. However, success depends on more than just technology: Operations, automation, security, and sustainable cloud-native expertise are crucial.

Empirius, a specialist in SAP Basis automation, will showcase the new version 26.1 of the EPOS Suite in the exhibition area at the 2026 DSAG Annual Conference. It features numerous new features and enhancements.

Multimatic, a global automotive supplier, is implementing SAP Direct Material Sourcing for Discrete Manufacturing in production. What the standard solution could do, where it reached its limits, and which requirements from the project were incorporated into an SAP release.

Those who decouple their data architecture can implement AI innovations more flexibly and at a fraction of the cost through external specialized providers, without falling into the next licensing trap set by Rise and BTP. The future does not belong to SAP’s closed monopoly, but to a composable ERP model.

With the announcement of the Autonomous Enterprise, SAP CEO Christian Klein has made a big promise to existing customers, as there is a lack of IT tools, ERP architectures, and B2B methods. Startups like Nova and Conduct are very cleverly filling the gaps in SAP's offerings.

SAP’s Autonomous Enterprise offers a wide range of opportunities, from Agentic AI to Composable ERP. All the necessary IT tools for this are available in SAP’s portfolio. Ultimately, however, the question of affordability—based on licenses, maintenance, and Digital Access—remains.

As the end of SAP Process Integration (PI) and Process Orchestration (PO) approaches, an issue that has long remained in the background is now taking center stage: integration. Companies often underestimate the effort required for this.

Tabular foundation models seem tailor-made for SAP’s ABAP world. In an ERP system where everything is based on tables, an LLM (Large Language Model) has no place. With TabPFN (Tabular Prior-data Fitted Network), the startup Prior Labs can save SAP’s Autonomous Enterprise.

Many service organizations use S/4 On-Prem as their central system for work orders and billing. SAP Field Service Management (FSM for short) supports field service operations. However, without well-planned integration, data inconsistencies and redundant data storage can quickly arise.

AI knows only one path: to solve a given task optimally and once and for all! What seems like a radical approach to humans is, for the machine, its logical raison d’être. Because AI has no humanistic values, it will continue to optimize until its very end.

When migrating to Rise with SAP, the SAP archive is often overlooked. Companies must design their archives, interfaces, and operations on their own—ArchiveLink or CMIS are crucial for costs, compliance, and future-proofing.
