SAP Mentor Monday: SAP Technology Overview

As the year is coming to an end many people tend to sit down and reflect on the past months and make plans or new year resolutions. For those of us in IT or more precisely for those of us making a living in the enterprise software business it has been a content-packed year again. Lots of announcement, lots of buzz, lots of information! No doubt about it – technology innovation is a trending topic!

So, why is technology becoming more important again to keep up with innovation cycles? How does the four dimensions OnDemand, OnPremise, OnDevice and in-memory computing impact the way business processes are executed in the enterprise world? And most importantly: “How does it all affect me/my company and what I/we do?“

All valid questions! The good thing about it: we are going to find out! As such, it’s my distinct pleasure to announce our upcoming SAP Mentor Monday webinar featuring Peter McNulty.

Matter of fact, the idea for this webinar was born after the SAP Inside Track in St. Louis. Many of the attendees including Jon Reed where so impressed by Peter’s take on explaining SAP’s technology strategy, that they approached him with the idea of sharing this with a broader audience. Your wish is our command! 😉

The Essentials

In this session, we will examine the changing role of IT, and the impact of new technology trends on enterprises in general and the IT landscape more specifically. We will look at four key dimensions of how IT organizations can innovate and deliver new capabilities to drive business outcomes. Within the context of each of these dimensions, we will examine relevant SAP technology platform solutions, including what is available today and their evolution in the near future driven by the cloud, mobility and in-memory trends.

About the Presenter

So, for those of you who don’t know Peter yet, here’s a short bio that Mark Finnern wrote when introducing Peter as one of the Welcome New SAP Mentors Fall 2010:

Peter McNulty SAP USA

Peter works for SAP Labs as a Product Manager for the SAP Web Application Server specializing in development topics. Peter’s areas of coverage include Web Dynpro, Web Services, J2EE, and new ABAP features. Prior to working with the SAP Web Application Server, Peter worked on various technology topics in Financials Product Management. He started off his career at SAP America as an internal ABAP developer and would later manage the Development team. Very active in the SAP Mobile space.

As you can see Peter has quite a diverse background, which allows him to see both: the big picture AND the details. As a regular SAP TechEd speaker (did you know he conducted a whooping 4 sessions in Vegas this year?!?) he’s a great presenter, simply because a) he is passionate about technology and b) he really knows what he’s talking about – and that shows!

With Mark and Aslan as our hosts and the extended wolf-pack in the house… I’m really looking forward to this particular SAP Mentor Monday webinar. So, be there or …
