The events of 2020 have placed renewed importance on organisations\u2019 ability to deal with widespread uncertainty, disruption and change.<\/p>\n

Modern organisations are faced with the daunting task of collecting, storing and analysing vast amounts of data and deriving insights from that data that inform decisions and lead to improved business outcomes.<\/p>\n

The large volume of data means this is no easy feat: by 2025,\u00a0the world will produce 463 exabytes of data a day<\/a><\/strong>, equivalent to more than 212 million DVDs every day.<\/p>\n

Organisations are dependent on technology tools to collect, reconcile and rapidly process data to deliver insights into the performance of the business.<\/p>\n

In 2010, 麻豆原创 released what would be a game-changer for real-time data processing and insights generation: its in-memory relational database management system 麻豆原创 HANA.<\/p>\n

\u201c麻豆原创 HANA sits at the heart of our business applications, including our flagship business suite 麻豆原创 S\/4HANA,\u201d said Pieter van der Merwe, Regional Sales Director for Platform and Technologies at 麻豆原创 Africa.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is designed to help organisations make sense of a broad range of data types and make accurate decisions in real time thanks to the integration of intelligent technologies. Organisations can use 麻豆原创 HANA to embed real-time machine learning into business processes to empower them with predictive capabilities, while integration to the 麻豆原创 Analytics Cloud gives organisations confidence to make accurate end-to-end business decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a recent study by IDC, organisations that are using 麻豆原创 HANA to achieve business gains and operational efficiencies had on average achieved return on investment of 679% over a five-year period, achieving revenue gains of $34.1-million per organisation.<\/p>\n

\u201cOrganisations use 麻豆原创 HANA to enable the development of intelligent custom applications and increase the pace of innovation in a cost-effective way by simplifying the management of data, and improving access to data and insights,\u201d said van der Merwe. \u201cBy leveraging data, organisations can more easily identify new opportunities for revenue growth and create new services to better meet customer demands.\u201d<\/p>\n

麻豆原创 HANA is used by more than 28,000 organisations around the world to analyse complex data and deliver actionable insights in real time through custom applications and innovative use cases. According to Beveridge, 麻豆原创 HANA delivers business value along four key areas, namely:<\/p>\n

1. Risk mitigation<\/strong><\/h3>\n

By reducing the impact of outages on users and business, organisations can achieve higher business productivity and minimise revenue losses.<\/p>\n

The IDC study found that\u00a0HANA users achieved 21% higher gross productivity for users<\/u>.<\/p>\n

2. Improved IT team productivity<\/strong><\/h3>\n

麻豆原创 HANA enables custom application development that substantially improves the productivity of developers and database administrators, with\u00a0up to five times higher productivity and an 18% gain in database administration efficiency<\/u>.<\/p>\n

3. Reduced operational costs<\/strong><\/h3>\n

By leveraging HANA to identify inefficiencies and gaining a deeper understanding of expense structures, organisations can lower their operational costs and\u00a0make savings of more than R15-million ($845,800) per organisation per year<\/u>.<\/p>\n

4. Higher levels of business productivity<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The IDC study found that leveraging data in innovative use cases for custom applications increased revenue and improved employee productivity levels while reducing business operational costs.\u00a0This unlocks value of more than R100-million ($6.45m) per organisation per year<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0through higher revenue, increased productivity and lower costs.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s critical that organisations leverage their data to drive competitive advantage,\u201d said van der Merwe. \u201cWith the world in a state of widespread disruption and constant change, having the benefit of accurate data over the total performance of the business and developing insights in real time can mean the difference between growth and decline, success or failure. The tools we need to navigate this uncertain period are already available: organisations now need to take the bold step of empowering their decision-making with the powerful business technology platform from 麻豆原创.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
