Happy coding!

Michael Ameling is general manager and chief product officer for 麻豆原创 BTP and a member of the 麻豆原创 SE Extended Board.

麻豆原创 has been working on AI for more than eight years now. Regardless, the past year was special as it has shown a huge leap forward in AI evolution toward generative AI. Today, more than 24,000 of our 麻豆原创 customers are using 麻豆原创 Business AI solutions in over 130 use cases. And we are aiming to provide even more businesses the opportunity to benefit from our unique data, industry, and process know-how as we work to become THE leading business AI company.

At the heart of that vision is 麻豆原创 Business Technology Platform (麻豆原创 BTP), THE platform of choice and key enabler for infusing 麻豆原创 and partner applications with business AI.

My keynote guest speaker Michael Nilles, chief digital and information officer (CDIO) of Henkel, said it well: 鈥淕enerative AI disrupts economy and society like the internet, but at lightspeed. Look at the last 10 months only — I have never discovered an exponential technology like that. 麻豆原创 BTP is our choice at Henkel for three years already; it鈥檚 our innovation platform. Together with 麻豆原创, we innovate at large scale, now also in the generative AI space.鈥�

To this end, we have been driving significant progress in the past months, from 麻豆原创 Business AI capabilities across our portfolio to the launch of our generative AI co-pilot Joule. The are another testament to the innovation 麻豆原创 provides.

Build In, Not Bolt On

We believe that business AI capabilities need to be directly embedded into applications and extensions. Designed with security, governance, and trust in mind, the is our new one-stop shop for developers to do exactly that. It provides ready-to-use AI services, AI runtimes, lifecycle management, as well as tooling for generative AI capabilities and business-data connectivity.

As part of the AI Foundation, our generative AI hub provides instant access to the most powerful large language models (LLM), such as Azure OpenAI Service and Falcon-40b. On the other side, it offers grounding capabilities based on enterprise data to ensure context, for example, by leveraging our new 麻豆原创 HANA Cloud vector engine that combines LLMs with relevant organizational data.

All Developers Will Be AI Developers

Today鈥檚 dynamic technology and business landscape means every developer needs to become an AI developer. For coders using Java and Javascript, our new solution increases developer productivity by offering a simplified experience with a unified lobby as an entry point, and generative AI capabilities. 麻豆原创 Build Code also takes care of identity management, audit logging, secure access, and more.

Does this sound too good to be true? Check out to see for yourself how 麻豆原创 Build Code helped to create a full-blown application in just five minutes on stage!

R鈥淎I鈥漵e the Ecosystem

More and more businesses are seeking to benefit from AI. No single company can unlock generative AI鈥檚 potential alone. A vibrant ecosystem of partners is required in order to meet growing customer expectations.

麻豆原创 is partnering with many key players that offer solutions connected to 麻豆原创 BTP. Today, partners support 90% of 麻豆原创-based implementations and offer 2,000 solutions on our store — more than 400 of these include AI capabilities. Moreover, our partner solutions also enable developers to create AI-based apps on 麻豆原创 BTP. One example is our partnership with DataRobot, announced earlier this year. We now brought its AI models to 麻豆原创 AI Core as well as its predictive and generative AI capabilities to 麻豆原创 Build.

Apart from the partner context, we also invest in AI research. The recently announced membership at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI is an important step to reinforce our commitment to build ethical and trustworthy AI.

Going Forward, Looking Beyond

The future holds a lot. On our way to become THE leading business AI company we will continue to integrate AI into businesses鈥� everyday processes.

For 2024 and beyond, we are exploring multiple use cases, such as AI-supported business simulations, AI-generated business correspondence replies and follow-up actions, composable business processes, or automated generation of code. We will also support fine-tuned LLMs to make them more suitable for business AI.
