SAP

SAP provides several analytics products; in a contemporary cloud deployment the principal offering is SAP Analytics Cloud. It combines business intelligence, visualisation, augmented and predictive analytics, reporting and enterprise planning in a software-as-a-service platform. Users can connect to SAP and third-party cloud or on-premises sources, create governed models and dashboards, explore trends and collaborate on budgets, forecasts or scenarios. Live connections can allow analysis without replicating selected source data where supported. The broad database label “SAP” may also refer to older BusinessObjects or other installed tools, so the exact product and version should be confirmed. Reliable healthcare reporting still requires validated measures, access controls and data governance.
