WALLDORF, Germany, Oct. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) today announced at EDUCAUSE 2015 that the SAP HANA® platform is making rapid inroads at postsecondary institutions worldwide.
Applications in academia of the in-memory capabilities of SAP HANA for analytics and modeling were immediately obvious and intuitive — for example, in cancer research. SAP HANA and the SAP® Business Suite 4 SAP HANA (SAP S/4HANA) suite form a digital core that can also improve customer experience, business processes, workforce engagement, supplier collaboration and Internet of Things (IoT) integration in addition to aiding processing-intensive research. For example:
"Especially since the launch of SAP S/4 HANA, university CIOs are imagining the possibilities of an integrated, fully digitized operation with the SAP HANA platform at the core," said Malcolm Woodfield, global vice president, Higher Education and Research, SAP. "With integrated end-user software such from Ariba, Concur, hybris and SAP SuccessFactors solutions, institutions will see significant efficiencies and savings as they digitally streamline processes."
SAP also announced that Regina Kunkle will join the Global Public Services team as vice president, State/Local Government and Higher Education, in part to help customers in education realize the benefits of the SAP HANA platform across research, operations and instruction.
