Analytics projects and applications have never been more critical.

They need to modernize with cloud solutions such as data lakes and warehouses, NoSQL, and distributed engines and architectures such as data mesh and fabrics. This TDWI expert panel focuses on how to develop the right strategy for your analytics stack, i.e., the increasingly layered data technologies that ingest, collect, store, transform, cleanse, and deliver data for the range of analytics.

Your Guide to GROW with SAP: Everything as a Service

Tuesday, November 14, 2023 | 10:00 a.m.–10:30 a.m. ET

How SAP helps companies create new as-a-service models on demand

Over the last few years, in an extraordinarily fast-changing and disrupted environment, companies have had to find new ways to offer as-a-service propositions that can create recurring revenue streams. This has been a top priority for all businesses, but especially those with capital-intensive assets.

In this Webcast, you’ll see how the pre-integrated public cloud ERP from SAP can uniquely support the requirements for Everything as a Service (XaaS) by:

  • Creating a single product catalog and order capture process for integrated sales, service, and subscription fulfillment

  • Generating a single invoice and accounts receivable stream for all components and

  • Supporting replenishment requirements and fulfillment of consumables by using a single consumption data stream that also drives monetization


The Webcast will feature a real organization that’s benefiting from an Everything-as-a-Service (XaaS) model. This business has changed the procurement strategy for the autonomous industrial sweepers that it uses in its distribution warehouses. Traditionally, it would have purchased equipment under an operating lease, with a separate service contract to support maintenance requirements and a manual process for validating and ordering parts. Now, this SAP customer subscribes to an Everything-as-a-Service package that simplifies and automates not only the ordering and billing process, but also the entire equipment lifecycle.

Through customer success stories we will:

  • Understand how MDM streamlines data-related operations and enables accountability through audit trail and workflow process visibility.

  • Develop data standards as guiding principles – aligned with business objectives.

  • Assess, cleanse, right-size all data – to focus on the data that matters most.

  • Investigate consequences of data transformations, as part of mock loads before committing to target state.
