SAP Coins 'Intelligent ERP' Label For HANA Cloud

Thew new world of'intelligent ERP' brings contextual analytics, machine learning and digital assistants... it's enough to make your accountancy personnel smile, probably. As we keep saying, data is no longer just a string of binary 1s and 0s. In doing so, we can then act on different chunks of data in different ways. In the heavy-lifting world of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), the idea that we can work on some elements of a firm's data workload in one area… but then sprinkle on some special functions (as and when needed) very much reflects what cloud computing is supposed to be all about. In a word, this is all about flexibility, based on as-a-Service-centric computing.
