SAP, which acquired Sybase in 2010, is not new to winning recognition from users in the EDM category and clinched the EDM award five years in a row in the Waters rankings at one point.

The SAP platform is not simply a business intelligence engine, and it goes beyond traditional expectations, enabling users to more easily and effectively access, manage and share data, including unstructured data from sources like Hadoop, across the enterprise. The offering has evolved from “being individual threads to becoming an enterprise data fabric, including business analytics, transaction processing and reporting,” says Falk Rieker, global vice president, global international banking unit head of banking at SAP , explaining that firms typically operate with a number of relational databases and data silos, and the SAP offering provides them “the path to the next generation of solutions.”

In addition to meeting varied demands and allowing firms to easily build new applications, the offering is also agile in terms of deployment. “One of the compelling aspects is that the EDM we offer is non-disruptive—it’s a platform that can sit across multiple other databases,” says Rieker, explaining that the platform allows users to connect data where it resides, enabling the blending of transactions and historic data with predictive and analytics, and supporting the next generation of solutions. As firms gear up EDM activities to meet new requirements and manage growing data, SAP becomes a go-to vendor with offerings ready to support change.
