How SAP Is Utilizing Machine Learning For Its Enterprise Applications

In recent years, SAP has been harnessing machine learning in its applications, which unites human expertise and computer insights. SAP is launching its own machine learning on a digital platform that is known as the SAP Leonardo Machine Learning Foundation, which provides an enterprise-grade platform for machine learning in the cloud. SAP Leonardo is a digital innovation system that delivers software and microservices that enables customers to leverage new technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), machine learning, analytics, blockchain and Big Data. SAP Leonardo was inspired by Renaissance painter, architect, engineer and philosopher Leonardo da Vinci. Markus Noga, SAP's Head of Machine Learning, told me that SAP Leonardo was introduced on January 11, 2017 and was extended to include SAP's entire digitization efforts with a machine learning foundation at SAP's SAPPHIRE event in May of 2017.
