Why hybrid?

Big push to the cloud

New future will be hybrid for a certain time

Transformation dilemma

SaaS gives way to push innovation fast

No big migration projects

Simple view of the analytics portfolio

Represents everything

Green box – all on-premise software

Planning – BPC solution (on premise)

Right – new solution, SAP Analytics Cloud

Yellow – Analytics Hub

Bottom, all solutions can connect on-premise and cloud

User on lower right

Only metadata transfers to SAP Analytics Cloud tenant

All data movement happens inside customer network

A WebI report is created “on the fly” in the server, analyzes queries, and will execute them

Leverage infrastructure that has been deployed in BusinessObjects Enterprise – not in the laptop, and not in the cloud

Create model, before story

Live universe connectivity consists of using live query panel

Create story, using Live Universe connection

Goal is to blur the line between import and live mode

Will have an early beta program in September, general in December

Looking at GA next year

Start from right, enterprise readiness with the BI platform; review scheduling/publishing framework

Simplify installation and deployment; infrastructure as a service deployment

Improve user experience

Only 1 launchpad, completely Fiori

Remove Java from stack, one HTML viewer

Design time will have a new UX

Extension policy program; partially terminate maintenance (not possible before) and transfer to cloud subscription; need to pay more cloud subscription
