Should You Consider Databricks for SAP®? Here’s What Your Data is Missing

Why SAP® Partnership with Databricks Could Be Your AI Wake-Up Call

Your SAP® Data is a Goldmine (But You’re Not Digging)

Let’s face it: If you’re running SAP®, you’re already sitting on some of the most valuable enterprise data in the world: Financials, supply chains, HR records - everything that keeps your business alive lives in SAP. But here’s the problem:

How much of that data is actually driving AI innovation?

If your answer is “not enough,” you’re not alone. Most SAP® clients we work with admit their data feels trapped—stuck in silos, bogged down by clunky pipelines, or simply too complex to use for real-time decisions. That’s why SAP’s partnership with Databricks is a game-changer.

But let’s cut through the hype. Should you care? Let’s break it down.

The SAP® Reality Check: “Why Does This Feel So Hard?”

If you’re nodding along to any of these, keep reading:

“My team spends weeks building pipelines just to get SAP® data into analytics tools.”
“We can’t combine SAP® data with IoT, CRM, or external datasets fast enough.”
“Our AI projects stall because SAP® data isn’t ‘AI-ready.’”

Sound familiar? Here’s why:

Fragmented Data Across the Enterprise

SAP® data is difficult to integrate with other critical enterprise data sources (e.g., IoT, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Kafka Streams, operational databases, Dun & Bradstreet, IQVIA). Businesses struggle to gain a comprehensive view of operations, customers, and financials, which affects their ability to make data-driven decisions.

Expensive and Inefficient Data Pipelines

Traditional ETL processes are slow and costly, consuming significant engineering resources. Data movement between SAP® and analytics platforms requires complex, custom-built integrations that are difficult to scale.

Limited AI and Advanced Analytics Capabilities

SAP® data is often locked within legacy environments, limiting AI/ML applications. Business users lack real-time, AI-powered insights to drive decision-making, and many BI tools fail to leverage the full richness of SAP® data, restricting self-service analytics.

Enter Databricks: The ROI Your CFO Will Love

Let’s get practical. What does the SAP®-Databricks partnership mean for your bottom line?

Enterprise-Wide Data Unification for AI & Analytics

SAP® data can now be enriched with other enterprise sources, enabling new AI-driven use cases. Organizations can finally leverage a true 360-degree view of customers, operations, and supply chains.

Simplified Zero-Copy Access to SAP Data

Unified data access enhances SAP® users with zero-copy data sharing for direct access to SAP® data (e.g., SAP S/4HANA®, BW) in Databricks, lowering storage costs. Bi-directional integration enables real-time connections with non-SAP® sources, improving decision-making and context.

AI-Assisted Business Intelligence for All Users

AI-driven dashboards enable self-service analytics on SAP® data, and AI-powered virtual assistants allow business users and business leaders to ask complex questions and get instant, accurate answers on business activity in near real-time.

“Is This You?” 3 Signs It’s Time to Act

1️⃣ You’re on SAP® RISE → Perfect timing. SAP® BDC + Databricks = instant AI acceleration.

2️⃣ Your data team is drowning in SAP® requests → Automate pipelines and reclaim 20+ hours/week.

3️⃣ You’ve got “AI FOMO” → Competitors are already blending SAP® data with generative AI.

Real-World Wins: What This Looks Like

The Hard Truth: Not Every SAP® Client is Ready

This isn’t for everyone. If:

You’re still on SAP® ECC 6.0 with no cloud plans → Start with basics.
Your team lacks AI/cloud skills → Partner with experts (like us).

But if you’re serious about AI, waiting could cost you.
