Organizations must encompass accurate data & analytics as it plays a leading role in positive finance transformation, functional finance digitization, and enterprise digitization for accelerated business operations.
Businesses are more inclined towards the cloud, especially for database management, since it delivers higher security and market relevancy. It is found that 75% of all databases will be hosted in the cloud within three years. So, it is more likely for businesses to seek cloud solutions to carry out valuable data & analytics operations.
SAP S/4 HANA Cloud for Data & Analytics
“67% of SAP Customers are planning to migrate to SAP S/4 HANA.”
SAP S/4 HANA is one source solution to all business ERP requirements. It facilitates proper finance management, transactions, and accurate reports to future-proof the entire business cycle.
Incorporating intelligent and market-relevant solutions like Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning has helped with the deep analytics of the data involved and its enrichment.
For industries like banking, capital markets, and insurance, high-volume data involvement is imperative. However, the risks associated with such high-volume cases are significant if they depend on disruptive technologies or non-cloud-based database management.
S/4 HANA Cloud is an optimum choice for industries that rely entirely on the database system to meet customer expectations and deliver accurate services without compromising proper finance management.
