Data Management Solutions from SAP
Manage Data to Maximize Business Impact
Data Management in the Digital Economy
Digital business transformation is changing the conversation about information. The digital economy is driven by data. To succeed, you have to make all your data fast, accurate, connected, and available where and when you need it.
Data management has never been more mission critical – or held more transformational promise. That’s why you need data management solutions from SAP.
SAP 
Conquer the Digital Economy with Better Data Management
Leveraging Information to Drive Digitalization
The digital economy depends on always-on data streams. Data-producing edge devices, for example, are proliferating at an extraordinary pace. That’s helping to drive an unprecedented increase in data volumes.
But many organizations lack the strategies and technologies to transform that data into value. And poor-quality data can cost your company plenty. That’s why the demands of the digital economy place a premium on effective data management.
Through 2025,
80%
Of organizations seeking to scale digital business will fail because they do not take a modern approach to data and analytics governance.1
In 2019, 2020, and 2021, only
7%
Of organizations were classified as advanced in their quest to become insights driven.2
41%
Of all organizations are currently experiencing poor data quality.3

Achieve Real-Time Intelligence for Real-Time Business
Data in Motion Must Stay in Motion
In an era of unprecedented uncertainty and flux, data capture and analysis need to happen in real time. It’s no surprise that a growing proportion of business systems involve continuous intelligence built on real-time, context-relevant information.
Continuous intelligence combines data and analytics with transactional processes and other real-time interactions. Such “data in motion” becomes a key use case, powering:
  • Real-time, 360-degree views of customers for targeted offers and services
  • Condition-based predictive maintenance of machines to reduce waste and extend lifecycles
  • New capabilities built on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML)
  • Monetization of data and data-driven services to open new revenue streams
  • Continual reimagining of operations to identify and enable new business models
Organizations that can manage, govern, and apply their data at high velocity can realize
true business transformation.
