SAP announced on the 17th that it has launched the "SAP Business Data Cloud" solution. This solution supports corporations in integrating all SAP and third-party data within the organization to make more meaningful decisions and implement reliable AI.

The two leading corporations in their fields have redefined how applications and data platforms are organically connected, equipping the solution with Databricks' technology to effectively handle data engineering, machine learning, and AI workloads.
Christian Klein, SAP CEO, noted, "SAP Business Data Cloud maximizes the value of enterprise data for business AI," and explained, "This solution combines SAP's unique expertise in core operations and end-to-end processes with Databricks' world-class data engineering capabilities, allowing corporations to utilize data more effectively."
