Cost Trap and Loss of Control<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
On the other hand, there is a risk of a drastic loss of control, which leads directly into the \u201cegress trap.\u201d Data transfer fees charged by hyperscalers can easily account for 30 to 50 percent of monthly costs, compounded by unpredictable pay-per-token models. Another critical issue is corporate security and compliance: With public cloud services, SAP users are merely renting computing power and handing their data over to a third-party \u201cblack box.\u201d Business processes can thus neither be reliably secured nor audited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The logical and only sustainable solution to this dilemma is \u201ePrivate Enterprise AI\u201c and the pursuit of digital sovereignty. \u201ePrivate\u201c by no means refers solely to operation in a private cloud, but rather to keeping AI entirely under one\u2019s own control. This approach ensures that access to the model is never revoked and that data compromises by third parties are ruled out. Whether in your own data center, at the edge, or in a dedicated cloud: sovereign AI means absolute control over hosting, models, and infrastructure. Private Enterprise AI safeguards your intellectual property, ensures compliance with the EU AI Act, and still allows you to benefit from the enormous efficiency gains of modern AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Secure AI Infrastructure with SUSE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
To make this vision a reality and move beyond the \u201ePOC playground,\u201c SUSE offers the SUSE AI Factory, a highly secure and scalable infrastructure platform. It enables the seamless deployment of AI solutions without compromising data control. As a software layer based on SUSE Rancher Prime, it replaces error-prone integrations of open-source tools with a \u201edigital production line.\u201c IT teams no longer waste resources on infrastructure maintenance but instead focus on creating value. Thanks to zero-trust concepts, native SBOMs, and air-gapped deployments, even the most sensitive SAP financial and HR data can be processed with absolute security. In addition, companies are transitioning to a predictable CapEx model that maximizes the use of expensive hardware through GPU scaling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, a future-proof AI strategy absolutely requires an open and dynamic ecosystem of innovators. The IT partnership model is changing, as modern AI solutions often involve many different categories of providers. Specialized integrators such as Nova Intelligence serve as indispensable solution architects in this context. They bridge the gap between secure AI infrastructure and actual business applications. They combine the capabilities of local LLMs with the reality of existing SAP landscapes to automate use cases. While Suse AI Factory provides the foundation for data sovereignty, these partners ensure that AI is deeply integrated into core processes and generates measurable added value from the company\u2019s own data center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continue to the partner entry: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Public AI for business-critical SAP data poses a risk. Vendor lock-in, skyrocketing costs, and loss of control are potential threats. The solution is Private Enterprise AI. It\u2019s time to leave the AI playground behind and prioritize autonomy.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":5736,"featured_media":161505,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[7,44082,5,45418],"tags":[1993,44798,44626,44450,45299,626,5009,44630,5010,236,16983,45137,44751,45586,45155],"coauthors":[44292],"class_list":["post-167725","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-meinung","category-infrastructure-insights","category-it-management","category-mag-26-11","tag-datenschutz","tag-datensouveraenitaet","tag-digitale-souveraenitaet","tag-eu-ai-act","tag-ki-infrastruktur","tag-kuenstliche-intelligenz","tag-private-cloud","tag-private-enterprise-ai","tag-public-cloud","tag-sap","tag-sap-daten","tag-sap-sicherheit","tag-suse-ai-factory","tag-suse-rancher-prime","tag-vendor-lock-in-2","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":[],"featured_image_urls_v2":{"full":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-400x180.jpg",400,180,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-768x346.jpg",768,346,true],"large":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"image-100":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-100x45.jpg",100,45,true],"image-480":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-480x216.jpg",480,216,true],"image-640":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-640x288.jpg",640,288,true],"image-720":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-720x324.jpg",720,324,true],"image-960":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-960x432.jpg",960,432,true],"image-1168":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"image-1440":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"image-1920":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"trp-custom-language-flag":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-18x8.jpg",18,8,true],"bricks_large_16x9":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"bricks_large":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"bricks_large_square":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1.jpg",1000,450,false],"bricks_medium":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-600x270.jpg",600,270,true],"bricks_medium_square":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-600x450.jpg",600,450,true],"profile_24":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-24x24.jpg",24,24,true],"profile_48":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-48x48.jpg",48,48,true],"profile_96":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-96x96.jpg",96,96,true],"profile_150":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"profile_300":["https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/infrastructure_insights_suse_de-1-300x300.jpg",300,300,true]},"post_excerpt_stackable_v2":" Public AI f\u00fcr gesch\u00e4ftskritische SAP-Daten ist ein Risiko.
