A New Development Platform for Native SAP HANA Applications

Developers have several options for developing applications and business content on SAP HANA, such as the ABAP 7.5 stack and the analytics applications supported by SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW) powered by SAP HANA. But if you’re looking to move beyond dashboard scenarios and don’t want to base that development on SAP NetWeaver stacks, your options grow more limited. For that reason, support package stack (SPS) 11 for SAP HANA was released in Q4 2015 to enable Java- or JavaScript-based native applications developed specifically for SAP HANA. Discover how you can take advantage of this new development environment to use open source standards and a microservices-based approach while remaining tightly integrated with SAP HANA.

Instill Operational Agility Into Your Organizational FabricCompanies face an onslaught of marketplace volatility, requiring an approach that balances people and technology. The market landscape is in a state of rebuilding. Raw material shortages, supplier insolvencies, and a host of other issues pose challenges to companies and their supply chains. Those enterprises that have adapted have one thing in common — operational agility. The ability to leverage their SAP solutions and partner applications with transparency and real-time decision-making keeps them on a growth trajectory. SAPinsider sat down with Peter Rifken, Principal Solutions Consultant for Quickbase, a no-code operational agility platform, to share his thoughts on the concept of operational agility, particularly as it pertains to supply chain strategies. In his role, Rifken says he sees companies fall into one of two buckets: reactive or proactive. Within a reactive enterprise, outside forces dictate how the organization responds, whether it’s spikes in customer orders, supply chain shortages, or equipment breakdowns. However, proactive companies look to the future to identify risks and work backwards to better prepare for what that potential future brings. “Proactive companies often realize that it’s the coordination of people and resources at the very edge of the business — with the teams closest to the actual problems — that are most critical to solving both day-to-day challenges and preparing for the risks down the line,” Rifken says. “And we think of operational agility as the ability to handle the day to day but also have the preparation in place for the bigger risks in the future.” Process improvement and team coordination has a significant impact on agility. Rifken suggest practical steps teams can take to begin the process of operational agility. Read this article and learn: - How to measure an organization’s operational agility by examining three areas of the business; - How to balance core systems and large migrations, such as SAP S/4HANA, while enabling those at the edge of the business to innovate and self-serve; - What the citizen development movement is and how nearly anyone can automate anything in both a self-service and governed way; - About a supply chain use case featuring a company that utilizes its SAP solution to track purchase order requisitions and supplier defects.
