Innovations and partnerships including a new collaboration with Snowflake equip developers to turn business data and AI into real business outcomes
BERLINΜύβ At ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ TechEd in 2025,ΜύΜύ(NYSE: ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄) brings AI deep into the development process to level up how developers build.
New AI-driven capabilities in the ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Build solution, an expanding data ecosystem and powerful Joule Agents empower developers to move from idea to impact with unprecedented speed and confidence. As AI transforms the nature of professional work, ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ also pledges to equip 12 million people worldwide with AI-ready skills by 2030.
βΒιΆΉΤ΄΄βs announcements today give developers the tools they need to deliver at the speed of AI,β said Muhammad Alam, member of the Executive Board of ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ SE. βInnovations across ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄βs unique flywheel of applications, data and AI put developers in the driverβs seat β where they belong.β
Opening the Developer Ecosystem
ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Build, the companyβs flagship solution for enterprise application development and automation, now gives developers more freedom to build, extend and automate using the tools they love most.
For instance, developers who prefer agentic development solutions like Cursor, Claude Code, Cline and Windsurf can now use ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ development frameworks with new ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Build local Model Context Protocol Servers. Visual Studio Code users will be able to access ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Build capabilities directly in their development environment with a new ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Build extension. This extension will also be made available later on Open VSX Registry for other development environments. ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ and n8n also announced plans for an integration so Joule Studio agents and n8n agents can work together.
And with new agent building capabilities in Joule Studio, developers have the tools they need to extend ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄βs ready-to-use agents and build new agents grounded in ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ business data and context that can act autonomously based on changing business conditions.
Putting Data to Work
Every intelligent application starts with trusted data. ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ is giving developers more ways to put that data to work through ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Business Data Cloud.
The solution now connects with more of the data and AI platforms developers use every day. A new ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Snowflake solution extension for ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Business Data Cloud brings Snowflakeβs fully managed data and AI capabilities directly to ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ customers, giving them the flexibility to choose the right compute and storage for each data and AI workload, while maintaining governance, interoperability and business context. ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ also announced a new ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Business Data Cloud Connect partnership with Snowflake. This complements existing integrations with Databricks and Google Cloud, giving developers more freedom to choose how they work with ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ data.
With a new data product studio capability in ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ Business Data Cloud, developers can turn raw data into ready-to-use assets known as data products that support analytics, AI and application development.
An expanded capability in the ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ HANA Cloud knowledge graph engine can automatically generate knowledge graphs. This capability maps relationships across ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ database tables, columns and data models, revealing how data fits together and why it matters. Developers will be able to see how their data connects across systems and uncover underlying business insights.
Bringing AI Autonomy to Life
ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ is evolving its AI portfolio to give developers the intelligence and orchestration power they need to takeΜύAI from insight to action.
ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ introduced its first enterprise relational foundation model, a new class of AI that predicts business outcomes rather than the next word in a sentence. ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄-RPT-1, or the first-generation Relational Pre-trained Transformer, can make fast and accurate predictions for common business scenarios like delivery delays, payment risk or sales order completion. ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ launched a free playground environment for developers today.
New AI assistants in Joule coordinate multiple agents across workflows, departments and applications, bringing automation and autonomy to life. These assistants plan, initiate and complete complex tasks spanning finance, supply chain, HR and beyond. Today, ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ introduces new agents built for technical users. For example, an agent for business process analysis will help teams understand how processes run, identify inefficiencies and uncover opportunities to optimize workflows and drive measurable improvements.
Lastly, as AI changes the nature of work for everyone, ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ is pledging to equip 12 million people worldwide with AI-ready skills by 2030. ΒιΆΉΤ΄΄ will expand hands-on training and certification programs that integrate practical AI-ready tools, including through its partnership with online learning platform Coursera.
