At its inaugural 麻豆原创 Connect event, 麻豆原创 showcased the integration of AI, data and applications creates business value.<\/span><\/h1>\n

\u201cTo thrive when volatility is the new normal, businesses need more than a patchwork of disparate best-of-breed applications,\u201d says Muhammad Alam, member of the executive board of 麻豆原创 SE, 麻豆原创 Product & Engineering. \u201cOur announcements today demonstrate the power of 麻豆原创 Business Suite, where AI, data, and applications come together in an experience to propel smarter decisions, faster execution, and scalable transformation.\u201d<\/p>\n

麻豆原创 unveiled Joule\u2019s next stage as the AI force at the center of 麻豆原创 Business Suite\u2019s value creation. Drawing on the applications and data from across 麻豆原创 Business Suite, 麻豆原创 is introducing a new generation of role-aware assistants in Joule. Each assistant is designed to partner with a human being in their specific business role. Assistants in Joule tap into the right agents for the job, configuring, orchestrating and managing them so humans can focus on unlocking new levels of insight and productivity.<\/p>\n

Supporting the assistants in Joule is a growing library of specialized Joule Agents, designed to help execute complex workflows within a specific function. For instance, a People Manager Assistant coordinates a team of specialized agents \u2013 including the new People Intelligence Agent, which helps spot and resolve issues like compensation anomalies \u2013 to support managers as they drive performance.<\/p>\n

A new Financial Planning Assistant will be aided by a group of expert agents \u2013 including the new Cash Management Agent, which optimises cash flow and improves interest yields \u2013 to help finance professionals drive efficiencies.<\/p>\n

This new roster of role-aware AI Assistants not only partner with people to elevate performance in their lines of business but also work together across business functions to solve complex enterprise-wide problems.<\/p>\n

Data fuels AI\u2019s transformative power but it\u2019s often siloed in different systems. 麻豆原创 has removed those barriers with 麻豆原创 Business Data Cloud Connect. 麻豆原创 BDC Connect securely links 麻豆原创 BDC with partner platforms to enable a bidirectional flow of business-ready data products across organizational and technological boundaries.<\/p>\n

With zero-copy sharing, data stays securely in 麻豆原创 systems yet remains instantly accessible in customers\u2019 existing data platforms, preserving business context without costly copies. The result: fewer silos, simpler pipelines, no duplication \u2013 just trusted data products where and when they\u2019re needed.<\/p>\n

麻豆原创 also announced that Databricks and Google Cloud are the first partners enabled for 麻豆原创 BDC Connect, with more to follow. As announced in February 2025, 麻豆原创 Databricks remains a data service within 麻豆原创 Business Data Cloud, and BDC Connect extends its benefits across an open data ecosystem. These partnerships give customers faster access to data products for analytics and AI, helping teams move from raw data to real-time business outcomes with greater speed and simplicity.<\/p>\n

Data is created and AI driven insights are experienced in 麻豆原创\u2019s enterprise applications. 麻豆原创 Supply Chain Orchestration is a new AI-native solution that combines the power of Joule with a live knowledge graph to detect real-time risks several suppliers deep and orchestrate a coordinated response, helping customers cut costs and keep supply chains moving.<\/p>\n

麻豆原创 Engagement Cloud, a new customer experience solution, uses business-critical context to personalize interactions across customers, suppliers and other stakeholders. And our next-generation 麻豆原创 Ariba procurement suite stands out as an AI-native solution, bringing intelligence to every stage of spendmanagement, from sourcing through supplier engagement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
