How SAP S/4HANA Is Different: HANA-Only
• Single point of fact storage (new tables ACDOCA, MATDOC, etc.)
• Modern UI – Fiori for everything
• Code optimized to run on a single DBMS
• Primary investment focus of all SAP future innovations

What We’ll Cover
What Are Embedded Analytics Really Good For?
• Operational analytics• They replace ABAP reports ALV, FPM, etc.
• Good for month-end close activities, forecasting current month, etc.
• Tactical analytics• Smaller clients can use Embedded for most of their analytics needs
• Even larger data volumes can be processed efficiently on aggregated level
• Real-time simulations: mixed analytical and non-analytical cases• Mentioned in previous slides: Transaction → Analytics → Transaction type of process

What We’ll Cover
The Three Flavors of BI on SAP S/4HANA
• “Super-light”– only Fiori UI is being used as BI front end
• “Light”– BI Platform / SAP Analytics Cloud is needed for front end
• “Strong”– BW is needed as a Data Warehouse
The Three Flavors: “Super-Light” — Only Fiori UI

The Three Flavors: “Super-Light” Demo
Fiori-based BI tools
• KPI Tile and Drilldown – will serve 80% of the users
• Multi-dimensional modeler – for those who need to slice and dice
• Query browser – to discover all queries available

Key Points to Take Home
SAP S/4HANA is significantly simplified in terms of data model, which is advantageous for BI
There is a lot of standard analytics content delivered by SAP
Three “flavors” are available depending on a particular customer situation
SAP BW and/or SAP BusinessObjects and/or SAP Analytics Cloud are not prerequisites of SAP S/4HANA Embedded Analytics
Most existing BI front-end tools are very well integrated with CDS views
Time-to-market for majority of requirements is significantly reduced
Courses and online training materials are already available
