Ask Approyo: Why should I upgrade to SAP S/4HANA?

If you run an SAP environment, you need to understand the value of SAP S/4HANA. You can't afford to live in the old R/3 or R/2 world anymore. You need to upgrade to an in-memory database solution to keep up with today's digital world.

Approyo CEO Christopher Carter talks about SAP S/4HANA and in-memory databases in the latest edition of Ask Approyo. Don't wait to make the change to SAP S/4HANA!


What is SAP S/4HANA?
Written natively for the SAP HANA platform, SAP S/4HANA is an entirely new generation of SAP Business Suite that is characterized by simplifications, massively increased efficiency, and compelling features such as planning and simulation options in many conventional transactions.

SAP S/4HANA is a real-time ERP suite for digital business. It is built on SAP's advanced in-memory platform, SAP HANA, and offers a personalized, consumer-grade user experience with SAP Fiori. Deployable in the cloud or on-premise, SAP S/4HANA can drive instant value across all lines of business – no matter your industry or business size.

How does SAP HANA work?
SAP HANA combines an ACID-compliant database with application services, high-speed analytics, and flexible data acquisition tools in a single, in-memory platform. As an in-memory database, SAP HANA stores and retrieves data used by applications. It can also act as a modern-day warehouse, integrating data from a wide variety of data sources with live transactional data to deliver up-to-date insights. Built-in application services support the development and deployment of new business apps that exploit data from the digital highway and leverage advanced data processing – text search and analytics, predictive analytics, spatial data processing, graph data processing, and streaming analytics – to deliver deeper insight from Big Data and the Internet of Things at unprecedented speed.
