SAP has announced that it has been positioned by Forrester Research as a leader in a report titled ‘The Forrester Wave: Self-Service Business Intelligence Platforms, Q2 2012’.
The company in a release said that Forrester has highlighted SAP’s abilities to scale and provide real-time insight into vast data environments as key factors in securing its leadership position.
According to the report, “SAP BusinessObjects offers excellent self-service functionality on big data. In-memory is the name of the self-service BI game these days when one is looking for answers at the speed of thought. Most in-memory DBMS engines, however, have practical limitations of analysing no more than a few hundred GBs at a time. To address this limitation, SAP now offers a highly differentiated combination of BusinessObjects Explorer with its top exploration and discovery capabilities and the SAP HANA in-memory appliance.”
