What functionalities does the SAP Analytics Cloud cover?
"SAP Analytics Cloud not only offers diversity in data integration, but also the unified platform that many customers have been asking for, integrating all tools.

Philipp May, head of the Reporting workshop
What questions might still be open?
- All important data is on the HANA database. Only the SAC functions, such as business intelligence, planning or predictive and augmented analytics, are in the cloud.
- In the case of data connections with live connection, the data remains in the company network. The live connection does not have to replicate the data, which can be queried directly.
- The SAP Analytics Cloud is a fully integrated software that is integrated as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform.
- The SAC uses the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) technology and thus provides the highest compatibility to data sources and maximum data security.
- The connection takes place in a few steps, in which the different systems are connected with each other. On-premise and other cloud databases can be easily combined.
- SAC provides individual users and departments at all levels with comprehensive self-service analytics that meet industry-leading standards for visual design while delivering superior value from Big Data.
- The SAC has a multi-device connection: Application and data collection is possible on all devices.
- In the SAC, planning data can be displayed in different versions in different scenarios. SAC removes the separation between reporting and planning: separate planning environments are no longer necessary. The actual data can be integrated in different planning versions.
- The interactive function for live collaboration (e.g. comments, chat, calendar) makes planning processes much faster and more efficient.
- With the planning functionalities within SAC, far-reaching options are available which, in addition to simple and clear personnel cost planning and budgeting, also allow cross-departmental planning processes to be integrated with each other.
