SAP Business Technology Platform and RISE with SAP: a live session series fit for all

UPDATE: November recap blog post link added below

Most of you probably know all about RISE with SAP, the new business transformation as a service offering from SAP that supports customers on their journey towards the Intelligent Enterprise.

RISE with SAP overview

SAP Business Technology Platform as the foundation for the Intelligent Enterprise in included in the RISE with SAP offering. Through the integration, extension and data-to-value capabilities customers can achieve agility, business value, and continual innovation.

SAP BTP overview

As seen above, the integration and extension capabilities are included mainly in 2 suites: SAP Integration Suite & SAP Extension Suite. RISE with SAP customers can use the capabilities provided by the suites to connect their landscape and build application extensions that align with their business requirements.

SAP Integration Suite and SAP Extension Suite overview

Simply put, the possibilities and use cases are endless, so we wanted to provide a starting point, a glimpse into the use cases that are possible with SAP BTP and give our customers a chance to ask questions relevant to their journey. Therefore, we are launching a new series of live sessions on SAP Community with leading product experts that will cover topics such as:

• SAP Integration Suite: learn how you can use these capabilities to accelerate your integration journey
• Relevant tools & documents to help assess your current landscape and where to start when moving to the cloud
• Understanding how to handle master data within the Intelligent Suite.
• Where to start with business process improvements, with focus on our BPI portfolio like SAP Process Insights, SAP Workflow Management & SAP Intelligent Robotic Process Automation.
• How and when to use our new low-code/no-code offerings to build extensions
• And more…

What can you expect from these sessions?

Leading product experts will share updates and innovations, as well as provide you with a starting point to deep dive into the product yourself. This won’t be a typical slide-heavy session, instead we’ll have a moderator that will interact with the experts and then a demo, so you can see the capabilities in action. After the demo, we will open-up the Q&A, so participants can engage with the experts and get the most out of this session.

When will they start and how can I register?

The series will start in May 2021 and will be hosted on the SAP Community. We’ll have at least 1 session per month, all using the same format (less slides, more questions :))
