SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) today announced new analytics software
that bundles SAP® BusinessObjects™ business intelligence (BI) solutions and the
SAP® Sybase® IQ server, a high-performance data foundation designed specifically
for analytics. The solutions help organizations of all sizes gain better insight
into “big data” with advanced data visualization, self-service data discovery,
mobile BI and predictive capabilities.
Rogers Communications, one of
Canada’s largest communications companies, services millions of customers every
day with wireless voice and data communications, cable services and media
assets. The company needed an enterprise solution that would enable self-service
access to data and reports, uphold security policies and scale with changing
reporting needs as data volumes grow. Rogers selected SAP BusinessObjects BI
solutions and SAP Sybase IQ to accomplish this. Today, 600 users are provided
with increased data access, autonomy and visibility. Permission to access data
is controlled based on the user’s role with optimized query times using adaptive
enriched embedded data structures. Users can now build their own reports and
pinpoint the exact information they want to see. The result is a reduction in
time spent on building reports, allowing decision-makers to focus on data
analysis that supports operational and service decisions. Rogers and SAP are
further working together to develop and manage the deployment of newly packaged
enterprise mobile applications, which leverage the SAP mobile
platform.
SAP currently offers the following analytics
editions:
· SAP® BusinessObjects™ Business Intelligence suite,
analytics edition
· SAP® BusinessObjects™ Business Intelligence
platform, analytics edition
· SAP® BusinessObjects™ BI, Edge
analytics edition
· SAP® Crystal Server, analytics
edition
“With the new analytics editions of SAP BusinessObjects BI and
SAP Crystal solutions, customers can start driving their own decision
revolutions more cost-effectively than ever before,” said John Schweitzer,
senior vice president and general manager, Analytics, SAP. “As technologies such
as BI, data warehousing and data integration continue to come together,
organizations large and small are looking for end-to-end solutions that can turn
‘big data’ into ‘intelligent data’ and quickly answer any business question. The
analytics editions take this even further by offering the expert content they
need to accelerate return on investment.”
Analytics editions are highly
scalable so they can evolve with organizations as their data and analytics needs
grow. This can be important for small and midsize (SME) companies that
traditionally face many challenges when entering the field of data analysis.
Analytics editions of SAP BusinessObjects BI solutions and SAP® Crystal
solutions package data warehousing and data integration products with
best-practice content and use cases tailored for key industries and lines of
business. Whether on desktops or mobile devices, the easy-to-use tools let
people quickly discover, access, manipulate and analyze transactional data in
enterprise systems, machine- or device-generated data and Web data. They can
even help analyze data from social networks such as Twitter to understand public
sentiment about their products and services.
