The arrival of our next-generation business suite, SAP S/4HANA (short for SAP Business Suite 4 SAP HANA), has created quite a buzz. Delivering on its promise to help customers Run Simple, SAP is committed to providing clear, easy road maps tailored to prospective customers.

During a recent Webinar, SAP HANA Experts answered basic questions about what SAP S/4HANA is, what a possible deployment path looks like, and how and where an organization can start on this journey.

All roads lead to SAP S/4HANA


What are the driving forces that make SAP S/4HANA a business necessity? Why make the move? It’s all about running optimally. This new technology can help you make significant strides in a technological climate where your business is facing:

  1. Ever-increasing data volumes
  2. Integrated IT and social media in the application landscape
  3. Networked organizations lending increased complexity to the business landscape
  4. Accelerated business execution

Companies can combat these challenges and burgeoning complexity by taking advantage of the benefits of SAP S/4HANA, such as:

  • - Simplified data models

So instead of getting bogged down in too much data, you can wield your data and use it to make decisions in the moment. If a product starts trending on social media, you can trust your data – since you can count on one version of the truth – to ensure that you’re prepared to meet and incorporate demand. With SAP S/4HANA, you can please your customers and seize every opportunity.
