SAP Collaborates with Google Maps
September 12, 2011
Real-time access to location-based data via Google Maps is the goal behind the latest Google and SAP collaboration, as revealed in “SAP and Google Team to Put Big Data on the Map” at LBSzone.com. explains SAP’s Sanjay Poonen,
Today, more and more information is being geo-tagged, and it is unlocking an entirely new dimension for enterprise data. SAP’s work with Google marries powerful enterprise software with the world’s most popular mapping platform to create entirely new ways for people to understand and interact with business information. We aim to provide our customers the opportunity to tap into the power of business analytics combined with location intelligence through a geographic view and use rich, interactive analytics to respond to events as they unfold in real time.
Globally successful SAP specializes in mobile solutions, social technologies, and the wrangling of big data. Google Maps has become the most popular online mapping tool worldwide. The two companies have a history of working together; it must be going well so far.
Google has been inking deals with a number of companies which can give it leverage into the enterprise market. Once that’s accomplished, we wonder, will the love affairs last? Now can SAP get back into turbo charged revenue mode? How many other firms are using Google Maps to “collaborate”?
