Transcript
[Music] hey how's it going to Steve's house I'm from the CTO of vitatree.com recapping sa P sapphire 2018 down in Orlando Florida hosted the cube got a chance to talk to awful lot of industry experts people are really movers and shakers in the industry what I wanted to get a sense of is where's sa P when it comes to cloud cloud native technologies you know sa P usually isn't mentioned in the same breath as topics such as CI CD or DevOps or any of the latest
and greatest buzzwords however si P drives the business 77 percent of the world's transactions are transacted sue s AP system so extremely important technology within the enterprise where is the cloud story you know what two or three years ago if I would have gone to an executive and said you know what we should consider Li seriously consider running sa P in a hyper scale cloud I probably would have got left out of their office this is something that small businesses do that can't afford the capex
of spinch of rolling out sa P it's not something that grown-up companies do well that story has changed quite a bit in the last three years even if you're going beyond the classic lifted shift scenario for most si P implementations in the cloud the ability to spend up workloads quickly for non prod is game-changing for most organizations I'm not exaggerating when I say that large organizations can spend two to three months two to three months just rolling out the infrastructure for non SI p or i'm
sorry for non product SI p projects this slows down the large enterprise and the cloud with automation from companies such as sous a Microsoft Google in AWS you can get a full net leader stack s AP upper running we're not talking talking about Hana up and running in just a half an hour or so or even if that time line was spending down to a week that is definitely worth the advantage the second point about cloud and sa P in the cloud that her consistently if
the ability to use cloud native services like tensorflow s3 storage machine learning applications natively with your s AP databases or your s AP datasets specifically Hana the ability to use in memory databases and comparing that with your data leaks based in this cloud drives what sa P is calling the intelligent business so a lot of stories a lot of value for s ap in the cloud I'd love to hear your journey are you talking about doing sa P in the cloud do you have questions about
whether or not s ap or any other ERP is appropriate app for the cloud steady state apps we're told should not run in the cloud because it doesn't make economic sense is there advantages to doing it otherwise talk to you next CTO DOS
