It also shows how companies can tap into new sources of revenue, increase customer loyalty through loyalty programs or pave the way for LTE roaming via IPX implementations.<\/p>\n<p>In this way, providers secure their competitive advantage in an IP-based world. The SAP guide includes contributions from over 40 industry experts from international companies, including Telef\u00f3nica, GSMA, Yankee Group and Cloudmark.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3>Ass.Tec: perfectly tailored<\/h3>\n<p>Raw material is expensive. In order to optimize consumption and avoid waste, Rehm BlechTec combined its special software for sheet metal cutting machines act\/cut with the centrally deployed SAP solution.<\/p>\n<p>An interface programmed by Ass.Tec ensured that data was exchanged between the two software worlds. The programming effort only took four days. The concept, planning and programming of the second part of the interface for the transfer of production order data between SAP and act\/cut was more complex.<\/p>\n<p>Since the interface has been in operation, there are no longer any manually created lists in the warehouse and in production. In administration, raw material consumption is posted immediately so that the correct stocks are transparent in SAP in real time.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, work processes are faster, machine utilization is higher and billing and cash flow are accelerated.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3>New IAM solution for GRC challenges<\/h3>\n<p>CA Technologies presents a new Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution. The software can be integrated into SAP solutions for governance, risk and compliance (GRC) and supports companies in minimizing the risk of fraud and managing access policies.<\/p>\n<p>CA Technologies is cooperating with Greenlight Technologies to integrate CA IAM into the SAP Access Control Application. The integration was developed on the basis of Greenlight's Enterprise Business Control Platform.<\/p>\n<p>It enables real-time separation of visibility as well as policy-compliant provisioning and deprovisioning of tasks in the IT and corporate application environment. This enables preventive controls that extend, mitigate or even terminate dangerous access combinations before deployment.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3>Connection of docuglobe to SAP<\/h3>\n<p>The aim of a cooperation between gds and Seal Systems is to make existing information and structures in SAP usable for the creation of technical documentation.

System updates, patches and software updates are installed centrally from the cloud.<\/p>\n<p>Individual maintenance of individual workstations is no longer necessary. Managed Desktop works for both local installations and virtualized IT workstation environments. A user's entire operating system and application landscape is backed up centrally in Pironet NDH's Business Cloud.<\/p>\n<p>This allows the entire system to be restored on a new device in the event of a physical computer failure. Managed Desktop can also be used to manage virtualized workstation environments that are provided via thin clients, for example.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3>Trillium Software System with new release<\/h3>\n<p>Trillium Software is launching a new version of its system.

Leading retail chains in Austria require their partners, suppliers and customers to deliver their data via the eXite network.<\/p>\n<p>The electronic data exchange is very simple: Retarus receives the data in customer format (invoices, delivery bills), converts it into Edifact format and transfers it to the eXite network via authorized AS2 direct connect.<\/p>\n<p>Editel then forwards the verified supplier data to the trading company. In the opposite direction, Retarus receives the data already in Edifact format and delivers it in the format requested by the supplier.<\/p>\n<p>This avoids time-consuming multiple connections, reduces susceptibility to errors, cuts costs and increases connection speed.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3>DataVard makes SAP systems fit<\/h3>\n<p>At the DSAG Technology Days in February 2013, DataVard presented the new nearline storage solution for SAP BW and Hana, DataVard OutBoard. This enables SAP customers to separate data according to operational relevance.<\/p>\n<p>Those that are relevant to daily operations are left in the online database, while the remaining data can be stored in DataVard OutBoard and compressed by up to 95%. This reduces the system size, slows down the growth of the database and reduces costs.<\/p>\n<p>DataVard also presented the BW Fitness Test, which companies can use to analyze their SAP systems. The combination of automated in-depth analysis and detailed benchmarking reveals areas for improvement, resulting in clear recommendations for action to increase system performance and stability.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3>IBM presents mobile portfolio<\/h3>\n<p>With MobileFirst, IBM presents a portfolio that combines new solutions for mobile security and analytics as well as software for application development with cloud-based services.

The survey of more than 400 IT decision-makers shows that 37% of companies in Germany actively use IT services from the cloud. A further 29 percent of companies are discussing the topic.<\/p>\n<p>The private cloud remains at the center of cloud activities. In addition to rising user numbers, the PAC analyses also reveal a growing polarization in the assessment of cloud computing: a large number of cloud advocates (35%) are offset by a growing proportion of sceptics (44%).<\/p>\n<p>The proportion of those undecided is decreasing (20%). This trend is particularly evident in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), where the cloud topic is gaining in maturity.

Initial results show that companies today use many IT solutions that no longer meet the current requirements of the service business. In phase two, Legner will focus on the design of service scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>In order to be able to present practicable service models at the end, the team is working closely with well-known user companies.
