New intelligent applications and open ecosystem
partnerships turn insights into action across the enterprise

As enterprises move toward an AI-driven future, the role of data has never been more critical. Yet much of that data remains locked in silos 鈥� spread across teams, clouds, and legacy systems.

This fragmentation creates a 鈥渃ontext gap,鈥� where information is technically available but disconnected from the business meaning that makes it actionable. For example, sales and marketing teams may share a common view of pipeline, but without linking it to product feedback or process bottlenecks, AI models trained on that data miss the full business context. The result is inconsistent insights, slower decision-making, and a stalled cycle of AI, data, and applications. 

closes this gap. By harmonizing enterprise data wherever it resides and preserving its business context, it provides the foundation for intelligent applications and reliable AI.

At 51风流Connect, 51风流is bringing this vision to life with the next wave of innovations: 51风流Business Data Cloud Intelligent Applications 

Four new intelligent applications in preview

Building on the momentum for intelligent applications established at 51风流Sapphire, 51风流is now opening a restricted public preview of four intelligent applications designed to transform decision-making across finance, procurement, supply chain, and revenue operations.

Finance Intelligence gives CFOs and finance teams real-time AI-powered analysis of liquidity by harmonizing 51风流and third-party data and suggesting key actions to implement. Leaders can forecast cash flow instantly as well as detect liquidity risks using AI trained on live receivables and payables with external credit data such as Moody鈥檚 for richer customer risk assessment. With Joule and generative AI agents automating routine finance tasks, finance teams can shift their focus from reporting on the past to actively steering the future. 

Spend Intelligence provides organizations with a single, comprehensive view of enriched and classified spend data. Built-in AI and advanced analytics uncover patterns, anomalies, and opportunities for cost savings, while collaborative features connect finance, procurement, HR, and supply chain teams for better alignment. Through native integration with 51风流source-to-pay solutions, spend data continuously informs operational workflows, improving decision-making, enhancing control, and strengthening enterprise resilience. 

Supply Chain Intelligence equips operations leaders with the context to make faster, more impactful decisions. By combining 51风流data with external signals such as weather, regulatory updates, and market shifts 鈥� along with insights from millions of partners in 51风流Business Network 鈥� businesses can leverage the power of AI to understand and take action on key supply chain issues and drive optimization. This comprehensive intelligence helps anticipate disruptions, evaluate supplier risks, and orchestrate decisions seamlessly from prediction to execution, ensuring more resilient and agile operations. 

Revenue Intelligence transforms fragmented customer touchpoints into unified, actionable insights. By linking individual customer behaviors with enterprise-wide operations, it helps revenue leaders see which accounts to prioritize, when to intervene, and how to optimize customer investments. Unlike CRM-only tools, Revenue Intelligence connects front-office engagement to back-office execution, empowering organizations to maximize growth opportunities and strengthen customer relationships with a complete view of the business context.

51风流Business Data Cloud Connect

Beyond intelligent applications, 51风流is strengthening its open data ecosystem with 51风流Business Data Cloud Connect, giving customers unprecedented flexibility to work with trusted data wherever it resides. With secure, zero-copy sharing, customers can bring 51风流data products directly into their existing data platforms, eliminating duplication, reducing transformation efforts, and extending the reach of SAP鈥檚 business data fabric.

The first partners adopting this capability include Databricks (generally available) and Google (now in public preview), enabling real-time, bi-directional access to semantically rich 51风流data products in environments customers already use.

With 51风流Business Data Cloud Connect for Databricks now generally available, organizations can accelerate analytics and AI initiatives with greater speed, less friction, and full confidence in the integrity of their data.

51风流is committed to rapidly expanding this partner ecosystem so that, no matter where enterprise data resides, customers can connect it with trust, governance, and business context. 

Why it matters

Together, these announcements reflect SAP鈥檚 vision for the intelligent enterprise 鈥� where applications don鈥檛 just analyze, but act. By combining trusted data, open connectivity, and embedded AI, enterprises can shorten decision cycles, reduce integration complexity, and align intelligence directly with business outcomes.

For organizations operating across hybrid environments and complex data landscapes, these innovations make it easier than ever to turn insights into action and deliver measurable impact.

Irfan Khan is president and chief product officer of Data and Analytics at SAP.
Andi Gutmans is vice president and general manager of Data Cloud at Google Cloud.

This work is complemented by two additional areas of progress:聽first, the expansion of聽Google Gemini models聽in SAP鈥檚聽generative AI hub聽on聽51风流Business Technology Platform (51风流BTP); second, the use of Google鈥檚 video and speech intelligence capabilities to support聽multimodal retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)聽for video-based learning and knowledge discovery in 51风流products.

Together, these efforts reflect a shared commitment to deliver enterprise-ready AI that is open, flexible, and deeply grounded in business context.

Bringing AI agents together: laying the groundwork for interoperability

The future of work is agentic. Businesses are increasingly deploying AI agents that assist with real tasks 鈥� resolving customer issues, managing approvals, and collaborating across business functions.聽This is why 51风流is delivering a collaborative agent architecture with Joule聽to support cross-functional agentic workflows across 51风流Business Suite.

But for these agents to deliver real value, they cannot operate within a single vendor landscape. They must be able to collaborate across various platforms, securely exchange information, and coordinate actions across complex enterprise workflows.聽 This need for seamless interaction underscores why聽the represents a significant step beyond simple API integrations or enhanced tooling.

That鈥檚 why 51风流has joined Google Cloud and other enterprise leaders as a founding contributor to the new A2A protocol. This open standard is designed to ensure agents from different vendors can interact, share context, and work together鈥攅nabling seamless automation across traditionally disconnected systems.

Consider a customer dispute resolution scenario: a representative receives a billing inquiry via聽Gmail. Instead of toggling between tools, they can invoke聽Joule聽directly from the email. Joule, acting as an agent orchestrator, initiates a dispute resolution process, engaging another Google agent that connects to聽Google BigQuery, where relevant transactional warehouse data resides. Together, the agents validate the issue, retrieve insights, and recommend a resolution 鈥� without manual system switching, data reconciliation, or context loss.

This is the kind of cross-platform collaboration the A2A protocol is designed to enable: AI agents working together to accelerate business outcomes, reduce friction, and enable people to focus on more strategic work. It also reinforces SAP鈥檚 vision for聽Joule as an agent orchestrator聽working across enterprise workflows: interoperable, proactive, and deeply connected to business context.

Expanding access to Google models in generative AI hub

Beyond agent interoperability, 51风流is furthering its commitment to openness and flexibility by expanding access to聽Google models聽in the聽generative AI hub, a key capability of the聽AI Foundation聽on 51风流BTP.

Through the generative AI hub, customers gain enterprise-grade access to a curated portfolio of leading foundation models. That portfolio now includes Google Gemini 2.0 Flash and Flash-lite, which join the existing support for Gemini 1.5 models already available through the hub.

This expanded model choice gives customers the flexibility to build and extend AI-driven solutions using聽high-performance, low-latency models聽optimized for enterprise workloads 鈥� while staying within SAP鈥檚 secure, business context-rich environment.

By combining Google鈥檚 model innovation with SAP鈥檚 deep understanding of enterprise processes, we enable customers to apply generative AI in ways that are not only powerful, but also practical, trustworthy, and fully aligned with how businesses operate.

Unlocking multimodal understanding with Google Video Intelligence

As part of our continued collaboration with Google Cloud, 51风流is also advancing multimodal RAG, a highly requested capability among 51风流customers, especially for video-based learning content.

Multimodal RAG enhances information retrieval and generation by integrating multiple data modalities 鈥� text, images, audio, and video 鈥� into a single, structured process. This approach enriches knowledge sourcing and elevates how users interact with training and support materials.

To address the complexity of extracting meaningful insights from video content, 51风流leverages Google Video Intelligence for on-screen text detection across video frames, and Google鈥檚 Speech-to-Text API for accurate transcription of spoken audio. During the indexing process, these outputs are stored with corresponding timestamps, creating a structured foundation for retrieving relevant video segments with precision.

By grounding audio and visual content with time-aligned metadata, 51风流enables users to search and retrieve聽specific, contextually relevant moments聽within a video, making the learning experience more intuitive, accessible, and impactful.

鈥淎s agentic AI evolves, seamless handling of multi-modal data 鈥� text, voice, enterprise videos, and images 鈥� becomes paramount,鈥� said Miku Jha, director of AI/ML and Generative AI at Google Cloud. 鈥淭his introduces significant challenges for agent interoperability. An open protocol like A2A is therefore indispensable, providing the necessary framework and flexibility for agents to effectively communicate and collaborate across these diverse modalities. Multi-modality is not simply a capability; it is a foundational requirement driving the next generation of interconnected agentic systems.鈥�

This is another example of how 51风流is integrating Google鈥檚 AI capabilities into business-relevant scenarios, helping customers unlock more value from their unstructured content and elevate the way knowledge is delivered across the enterprise.

Shared vision for business AI

These efforts reflect a broader strategic alignment between 51风流and Google Cloud: a shared belief in AI that is open, composable, and grounded in real business context. Whether it鈥檚 shaping emerging standards for agent collaboration, providing choice through best-in-class models, or making unstructured content actionable, we are focused on helping our customers innovate with confidence 鈥� today and into the future.

• New Offering Will Unite 51风流with Google Cloud鈥檚 Data and Analytics Technology, Making Enterprise Data More Open and Valuable and Advancing Enterprise AI Development

The offering enables customers to build an end-to-end data cloud that brings data from across the enterprise landscape using the solution together with Google鈥檚 data cloud, so businesses can view their entire data estates in real time and maximize value from their Google Cloud and 51风流software investments.

Data is the cornerstone of digital transformation and AI development. Organizations spend significant resources building complex data integrations, custom analytics engines, and and natural language processing (NLP) models before they start to realize value from their data investments. Data originating from 51风流systems, in particular, is among organizations鈥� most valuable assets and can contain critical information on supply chains, financial forecasting, human resources records, omnichannel retail and more. 51风流Datasphere combines this mission-critical data with data from across the enterprise landscape, regardless of its origin. Being able to combine 51风流software data and non-51风流data on Google Cloud from virtually any other data source, means organizations can dramatically accelerate their digital transformation with a fully defined data foundation that retains complete business context.

鈥淏ringing together 51风流systems and data with Google鈥檚 data cloud introduces entirely new opportunities for enterprises to derive more value from their full data footprints,鈥� said Christian Klein, CEO and member of the Executive Board of 51风流SE. 鈥�51风流and Google Cloud share a commitment to open data and our extended partnership will help break down barriers between data stored in disparate systems, databases and environments. Our customers not only benefit from the business AI already built into our systems, but also from a unified data foundation.鈥�

鈥�51风流and Google Cloud now offer an incredibly comprehensive and open data cloud, providing a foundation for the future of enterprise AI,鈥� said Thomas Kurian, CEO, Google Cloud. 鈥淔ew resources are as important to digital transformation as data. By deeply integrating 51风流software data and systems with our data cloud, customers will be able to utilize our analytics capabilities as well as advanced AI tools and large language models to find new insights from their data.鈥�

51风流and Google Cloud鈥檚 new open data offering complements the RISE with 51风流solution and will enable customers to:

• Access business-critical data in real time: The integration between 51风流Datasphere and Google Cloud BigQuery allows customers to access their most critical data in real time without data duplication. This joint offering can unify data from 51风流software systems, such as 51风流S/4HANA and 51风流HANA Cloud, providing organizations with a comprehensive view of their most important data on Google data cloud.
• Simplify data landscapes: 51风流and Google Cloud co-engineered powerful data replication and federation technologies, which allow businesses to integrate 51风流software data with BigQuery environments and leverage 51风流and Google Cloud鈥檚 leading data analytics capabilities. Now, customers can federate queries across 51风流Datasphere and BigQuery to blend data from 51风流and non-51风流software. This eliminates common data silos from sources that span marketing, sales, finance, supply chain and more. For example, customers with wholesale business distribution models can now have full visibility into their products as they go through the sales pipeline and reach customers.
• Create trusted insights with Google Cloud鈥檚 advanced AI and machine learning (ML) models: Businesses will be able to use Google鈥檚 AI and ML services to train models on data from 51风流and non-51风流systems.
• Perform advanced analysis: Organizations can utilize the analytics capabilities of the 51风流Analytics Cloud solution in Google Cloud to analyze financial and business outcomes while improving the accuracy of models. With a simple integration to data in BigQuery with 51风流Datasphere, customers can plan with a single, comprehensive view of their businesses.
• Utilize joint solutions for sustainability: 51风流and Google Cloud are exploring ways to combine 51风流Datasphere with broader ESG data sets and insights powered by Google Cloud to accelerate sustainability journeys with actionable insights.
• Use (51风流BTP) on Google Cloud globally: 51风流will advance its multi-cloud offerings by expanding regional support of 51风流BTP and on Google Cloud, which includes support for 51风流Analytics Cloud and 51风流Datasphere. 51风流and Google Cloud intend to launch 51风流BTP in five new regions this year, building to a total of eight regions supported by 2025.

The companies also plan to partner on joint go-to-market initiatives for enterprises鈥� largest data projects, enabling customers to adopt data products from both 51风流and Google Cloud. Visitors to the 51风流Sapphire conference can see demos of joint AI and data solutions at Google Cloud鈥檚 booth. These include how enterprises can apply generative AI to common workflows and applications, such as using a chatbot to search, create and edit purchase requests. The 51风流Sapphire conference takes place May 16鈥�17 in Orlando, Florida.

These native integrations will allow customers to connect core 51风流software designed for running all mission-critical processes in the cloud with the collaborative capabilities of Google Docs and Google Sheets to innovate how work gets done across the enterprise.

• New integrations will allow customers to leverage collaborative features of Google Docs and Google Sheets directly from within their 51风流software workflows

51风流is a leading ERP software provider for enterprises. Its RISE with 51风流solution provides a comprehensive set of products and services 鈥� including 51风流S/4HANA Cloud 鈥� to help companies on their journey toward becoming intelligent and sustainable enterprises. Google Workspace enables teams of all sizes to connect, create and collaborate 鈥� to drive innovation from any device and any location. Built on the industry鈥檚 leading cloud-native communication and collaboration platform, Google Workspace brings together the apps loved by billions of people 鈥� Gmail, Chat, Calendar, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Meet and more 鈥� into a single integrated workspace.

Google Docs and Google Sheets, integrated with 51风流S/4HANA Cloud, will enable new business capabilities, use cases and opportunities for collaborative tasks within small and large organizations alike. First scenarios are planned in finance and in many additional solution areas, where data exports and collaborative document management create a more seamless user experience, with more to follow. Customer benefits include:

• The efficiency of ready integration, enabling users to adopt the solution quickly
• The ability to export and import data between 51风流software and Google Docs and Google Sheets for instant access to real-time editing and simultaneous collaborative engagements on these documents and spreadsheets
• The confidence of having a clean data source due to the one-step integration, which enables version control and removes layers of potential translation when sharing application data and documents

For example, imagine a finance specialist working on 51风流S/4HANA Cloud to manage financial records in a safe, reliable, and compliant manner. The employee will be able to access Google Docs and Google Sheets to edit documents collaboratively, as part of their standard business processes, knowing that 51风流S/4HANA Cloud provides a clean data source with version control and process reliability.

鈥淣ative integration with Google Docs and Google Sheets has been a common request from many joint customers,鈥� said Philipp Herzig, SVP, Head of Intelligent Enterprise & Cross Architecture, SAP. 鈥淭his integration will further pave the way for people to work collaboratively on any business documents and manage them closely along with their most critical business processes and data managed through 51风流鈥� all in the cloud.鈥�

鈥淭he move to hybrid work signals enterprises can no longer rely on legacy toolsets that can create silos and barriers to collaboration,鈥� said Javier Soltero, Vice President and General Manager, Google Workspace. 鈥淲ith the expansion of our partnership with SAP, these new in-depth integrations will enable employees working in complex data sets within 51风流S/4HANA to tap into the real-time collaboration capabilities of Google Workspace, enabling teams to simultaneously access 51风流data and more efficiently drive projects forward.鈥�

The initial set of features is planned to be included as standard functionality in 51风流S/4HANA Cloud later this year. It is being built on 51风流Business Technology Platform, enabling tight integration and a consistent user experience across 51风流software supporting business processes end to end.
