How SAP customers can accelerate analytics in the cloud

Most organizations surveyed by ESG reported that they use no more than 30% of their total data for analytics purposes. So it’s no surprise that, according to SAPinsider research from May 2020, 52% of SAP customers surveyed say that their top analytics pain point is data integration. Google Cloud offers two powerful analytics solutions for SAP cloud and on-premises deployments alike: BigQuery, our cloud data warehouse, and a suite of AI and machine learning tools.
