SAN DIEGO, California,
July 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- SAP
SE (NYSE: SAP) today announced that Esri, the global leader in
location intelligence, now supports SAP® Cloud Platform, SAP HANA®
service. This announcement marks the first-ever database as a
service that is fully supported by Esri ArcGIS technology.
Organizations can now run SAP HANA as the underlying multimodel
database service for the ArcGIS system of record and take advantage
of increased performance, lower total cost of ownership and easier
integration of enterprise data with spatial data either on premise,
in the cloud or in a hybrid deployment. This announcement was made
at the Esri User Conference being held July 8–12 in
San Diego.
"Our partnership with Esri brings over 20 years of co-innovation
to our broad joint customer base," said SAP senior vice president
of SAP HANA and Analytics, Gerrit
Kazmaier. "Through our latest co-innovation efforts, the SAP
HANA service is the first and only database as a service serving as
the foundation of the enterprise geodatabase with ArcGIS. With Esri
ArcGIS powered by SAP HANA now supporting on-premise, cloud and
hybrid environments, customers can choose their preferred
deployment option to gain substantial performance and scale
improvements, while connecting to a much broader set of internal
and external data sources for much more powerful spatial analytics
and decision-making."
The SAP HANA service, a main component of SAP HANA Cloud
Services, is now a supported enterprise geodatabase with Esri's
ArcGIS Enterprise and ArcGIS Pro, allowing businesses to benefit
from full integration of enterprise and spatial data for greater
insights, improved business decisions and quicker innovation. By
providing fully integrated spatial analytics and advanced
visualizations in one multimodel database management system, the
joint solution from SAP and Esri consolidates IT landscapes for
lower administration costs and total cost of ownership.
City of San Diego Transforms into a Smart City
The City of San Diego is using
the powerful capabilities of SAP Business Suite software and Esri
ArcGIS Enterprise to improve municipal service delivery and
community collaboration through spatial insight. SAP, Esri and
implementation partner Critigen are working together with the city
to achieve interoperability between their platforms through data
integration, advanced analytics and dynamic map-based
applications. The goals of the project are to reduce overall
technology costs, improve performance and provide accurate and
timely information for making more-informed decisions throughout
the city.
"We are seeing many benefits from the SAP and Esri partnership,"
City of San Diego's Chief
Innovation Officer Jonathan Behnke
said. "For example, our firefighters can better plan and respond to
calls. Within a few weeks a team from SAP, Critigen, Esri and
Quartic Solutions built a map viewer showing hydrant status from
our operational and GIS systems of record — SAP Business Suite and
Esri ArcGIS both running on SAP HANA. The new tool improves
efficiency and helps make the city safer."
