SAP Analytics Cloud Use Case

SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) is a key “Intelligent Technology” in SAP’s vision for the Intelligent Enterprise. SAC is a SaaS product built on SAP Cloud Platform and powered by HANA in-memory technology. It offers a one-stop solution and an intuitive user interface to support various business needs, ranging from BI reporting and predictive forecasting to financial and sales planning, without having to launch multiple applications. This leads to fewer errors and lower integration efforts, while improving user experience and productivity. SAP Analytics Cloud gives the users the freedom to access the information they need when they need it. It can connect to multiple data sources (cloud and on premise) and enables users to access information and make decisions in real-time.

In this whitepaper, we review one of the key differentiators of SAP Analytics Cloud: business intelligence extended by collaborative planning and predictive analytics in one integrated solution.
