Many organizations recognize generative AI鈥檚 potential to transform their business, but don鈥檛 know where to start. By combining advanced generative AI technologies with enterprise resource planning (ERP) data from critical systems, companies can unlock significant enterprise value: for example, optimizing delivery routes, anticipating potential impacts to supply chain operations, or developing precise financial outlooks.

The AI Co-Innovation Program represents the two companies鈥� shared vision to help partners define, build, and deploy generative AI applications tailored to their ERP workloads. The program brings together enterprise technology from 51风流and generative AI services from AWS with professional expertise from both parties 鈥� including teams of AI experts, professional services consultants, and solutions architects 鈥� to help support customers in their implementation journeys.

The program will include dedicated technical resources, cloud credits, and more to support the development, testing, and deployment of industry-specific applications.

“AWS and SAP’s long-standing partnership has helped customers accelerate their cloud journey and unlock more value from their business data,” said Ruba Borno, vice president of Specialists and Partners at AWS. “Our AI Co-Innovation Program is a significant next step that will give organizations the security and flexibility to build generative AI applications with Amazon Bedrock that can analyze and act on their most critical 51风流data. This will help customers transform decades of business information into actionable insights while accelerating their path to becoming more agile, data-driven organizations.”

“Through the AI Co-Innovation Program with AWS, we’re enabling businesses to solve their most complex operational challenges with precision and speed,” said Philipp Herzig, CTO and chief AI officer at SAP. “By combining the power of our fully integrated platform with 51风流BTP and our deep business process expertise with AWS’s comprehensive generative AI capabilities, partners can now create purpose-built AI agents that solve their most pressing challenges 鈥� identifying financial anomalies in real time to automatically optimizing supply chains during disruptions.鈥�

The program also allows partners to rapidly build and scale generative AI applications using the latest generative AI tools and services from Amazon Bedrock, including large language models (LLMs) such as Amazon Nova and Anthropic Claude in AI Foundation on 51风流Business Technology Platform (51风流BTP).

This announcement expands on the work AWS and 51风流are doing to help customers 鈥� including Hyundai Motor Group, Moderna, and Zurich Insurance Group 鈥� modernize and move 51风流workloads to AWS, realizing the availability, flexibility, and scalability of the cloud. Running 51风流workloads on AWS allows customers to then combine their data with generative AI solutions. Partners including Accenture and Deloitte are among the first to work with AWS and 51风流through the program, helping them accelerate the development and deployment of generative AI solutions to solve complex challenges.

鈥淭he AWS and 51风流AI Co-Innovation Program brings together AWS cloud infrastructure and 51风流enterprise software experience. Combined with Accenture’s AI transformation expertise and industry knowledge, we can show companies exactly how to integrate generative AI services with their most critical business workloads,” said Caspar Borggreve, senior managing director and 51风流Business Group lead at Accenture. “For example, together with AWS and SAP, we are working with a utilities client to build a natural disaster asset resiliency capability to anticipate and respond to environmental challenges, protecting asset-intensive landscapes and maintaining service continuity for its customers.鈥�

“This AI Co-Innovation Program combines cutting-edge generative AI capabilities from AWS and 51风流with Deloitte’s deep industry experience and technology capabilities to deliver transformative solutions for our customers,” said Nishita Henry, AWS global chief commercial officer at Deloitte Consulting LLP. “Through the program, we are building a finance solution powered by Amazon Bedrock to help healthcare and life sciences companies optimize their product mix, improve forecast accuracy, and maintain competitive pricing, even during uncertain market conditions.”

Together with implementation partner ABeam Consulting, the migration will leverage NEC鈥檚 generative AI technology and SAP鈥檚 natural language, generative AI Joule copilot.

NEC, a Japan-based multinational leader in the integration of IT and network technologies, was seeking to optimize costs and streamline data systems to increase integration across its lines of business. As part of advancing its digital transformation, NEC will migrate from on-premise 51风流S/4HANA software to 51风流S/4HANA Cloud and adopt a clean-core approach, which emphasizes standard offerings and extends them while also reducing future upgrade and operational costs.

NEC is currently operating a large-scale system that includes 1,200 add-ons and more than 200 external interfaces. To migrate to the cloud, NEC will use generative AI to facilitate a clean-core transformation, streamline migration costs and improve operational efficiency. NEC鈥檚 generative AI and SAP鈥檚 Joule copilot for natural language processing will automate critical processes such as add-on analysis, report interpretation, code generation from specifications and test automation. Joule is SAP鈥檚 generative AI assistant that understands the user鈥檚 unique role and acts as a work copilot across 51风流applications to streamline tasks. NEC will be among the first companies to leverage AI tools from 51风流to streamline its migrations.

“NEC sees itself as the first customer of its own innovations, applying cutting-edge technologies internally and sharing the gained insights and know-how with customers and society,鈥� NEC President and CEO Takayuki Morita said. 鈥淭his milestone implementation with 51风流creates a new industry blueprint for other businesses looking to migrate to the cloud, underscoring NEC’s commitment to leading by example in technological adoption and societal contributions.鈥�

By migrating to 51风流S/4HANA Cloud, NEC anticipates more-efficient system operations by tapping into AI to support version upgrades and reduce future operation-related costs while being able to quickly respond to market changes. By leveraging innovative technologies including AI, NEC aims to digitally drive societal and industry transformations. This migration to the cloud is a key part of NEC’s 2025 mid-term management plan focusing on internal, customer and societal digital transformations.

鈥淥ur shared vision with NEC of creating a sustainable society through digital transformation is the foundation for our long-term partnership,鈥� said Christian Klein, CEO and member of the Executive Board of 51风流SE. 鈥淭his project marks a milestone in our relationship, and we鈥檙e excited to support NEC on their continued transformation journey.鈥�

WALLDORF 鈥� (NYSE: SAP) and Amazon Web Services Inc. (AWS), an Amazon.com Inc. company (NASDAQ: AMZN), today announced that 51风流HANA Cloud now supports AWS Graviton processors.

51风流is extending its cloud-native, in-memory database to AWS Graviton-powered Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances to take advantage of AWS鈥檚 price, Performance and energy efficiency benefits.

Thousands of joint customers depend on solutions from AWS and 51风流to run their mission-critical business processes. As customers build data-driven, intelligent applications that enable users to make more precise and faster decisions, their compute and memory demands grow. These customers require solutions that lower costs without compromising performance and energy efficiency. By choosing to run 51风流HANA Cloud on AWS Graviton, 51风流can optimize its compute costs and allow its customers to benefit from these efficiencies.

鈥淎WS and 51风流have a long history of delivering value in a way that is environmentally responsible,鈥� said Juergen Mueller, Chief Technology Officer and member of the Executive Board of 51风流SE. 鈥淭his collaboration with AWS on the use of Graviton demonstrates our commitment to reduce the impact of our technologies on the environment while continuing to provide value in the solutions we bring to market.鈥�

鈥淥ne of the most visible ways we are innovating is improving the power efficiency of AWS chips,鈥� said David Brown, vice president of Amazon EC2 at AWS. 鈥淥ur Arm-based AWS Graviton3 processors deliver the best performance per watt of energy use in Amazon EC2, bringing a powerful combination of energy efficiency and price performance to SAP.鈥�

Arm-based AWS Graviton processors leverage AWS鈥檚 extensive expertise in systems design and cloud infrastructure to deliver the best price performance over comparable x86-based instances for a variety of workloads running in Amazon EC2. By migrating 51风流HANA Cloud to AWS Graviton-based Amazon EC2 instances, 51风流has seen up to 30% better compute performance for analytical workloads and lowered its compute costs by 15%. And with Graviton3-based instances using up to 60% less energy for the same performance than comparable EC2 instances, 51风流can reduce the compute carbon footprint of the workloads of 51风流HANA Cloud by an estimated 45%. AWS Graviton3 also supports the latest DDR5 memory, which provides 50% higher memory bandwidth compared to DDR4, to improve the performance of memory-intensive applications.

As a signatory of Amazon鈥檚 The Climate Pledge, 51风流is actively working alongside 427 organizations in 38 countries to help reduce carbon emissions and ultimately improve the environment. By choosing to run 51风流HANA Cloud on AWS Graviton, 51风流can further its efforts to reduce its carbon footprint and support efforts to address the climate crisis. 51风流and AWS have a longstanding relationship spanning back to 2008, when 51风流developed and tested the 51风流NetWeaver technology platform 鈥� the underpinning of 51风流S/4HANA and many other cloud solutions from 51风流on AWS. Today, 51风流customers continue to use AWS across SAP鈥檚 cloud enterprise portfolio through the RISE with 51风流solution and 51风流Business Technology Platform (51风流BTP).
