The Ballance Agri-Nutrients S/4HANA Case Study
ByPrimary Researcher August 17, 2017March 21, 2021

… S/4HANA at the time of implementation, and we get varying reports as to how complete the module actually is. It appears that BAN implemented S/4HANA Finance with eyes on S4HANA EM as being the primary justifier of using S/4HANA as the following quotation from BAN’s implementing partner attests:
“As a major benefit of S/4HANA, SAP touts the ability for enterprises to “reimagine business processes.” Ballance has started on this journey and foresee S/4 Logistics (the next module off the block) as a real game-changer for their business. While the simplified data model and …

… consulting companies is its specific topic and is covered in the following article.
This S/4HANA implementation went live on January 15th, 2015.
The desire to sell S/4HANA projects and to get S/4HANA skills on the resumes of consultants is intense. I was consulting with one SAP Gold Partner selling S/4HANA projects but had no experience implementing S/4HANA. This company primarily sold to unsophisticated customers who would not have known to ask about specific S/4HANA experience in this company’s consulting corps.
I once asked the CEO and the head of consulting how they intended …

The Strange Changes with the Count of Fiori Apps

… Story on S/4 HANA
For the foreseeable future, the only way to know what parts of the rest of the S/4 suite work are to test them or learn second hand from someone else (who you trust) who has tested it. You can’t ask SAP or ask their consulting partners. In most cases, the answer is that S/4 is ready to be implemented as soon as you can get around to signing a statement of work with them! Beyond this, S/4 is being made to appear far more implemented than it is.

… being used by SAP customers. And how Fiori SAP was leveraged as a cynical marketing ploy to keep companies from exploring real options in the market for user interfaces.
These limiting factors on Fiori SAP include the following:

Tying Fiori SAP Unnecessarily to HANA
SAP and its Partner Network misrepresented Fiori as a Complete Replacement for the SAPGUI
SAP and its Partner Network Misrepresented Fiori as a User Interface That Works Equally Well on Computers, Tablets, and Phones
SAP and its Partner Network Misrepresented the Effort Involved with Fiori

Lack of Financial Bias Notice: The vast majority of content available on the Internet about Oracle is marketing fiddle-faddle published by Oracle, Oracle partners, or media entities paid by Oracle to run their marketing on the media website. Each one of these entities tries to hide its financial bias from readers. The article below is very different.

… that SAP HANA is intended to support both OLTP and analytic processing in the same instance. By SAP’s surveys, around a quarter to a third of HANA customers use it this way, with another quarter using it purely in warehousing environments and the remainder being specialised developments created by partners.
It is not technically feasible to do this. An analytics database has a different design from a transaction processing database. IBM, Oracle, and SQL have improved SAP’s design regarding adding a column store to an RDBMS. But it still will not match the performance of a dedicated analytics …

IBM Finally Fighting Back Against HANA
ByPrimary Researcher July 21, 2017May 4, 2021

… youtu.be/Ae20RHXlagM
Text Introduction (Skip if You Watched the Video)
After many years of SAP saying pretty much anything that it wanted without Oracle, IBM, or Microsoft saying very much (outside of Larry Ellison), in June 2017, IBM and Oracle began to fight back publicly due to the longstanding partnerships between SAP and these companies. This pushback will lead to HANA’s further decline as the HANA competitors have held back due to partnerships with SAP that they preferred for years not to unsettle. See our analysis of IBM’s anti-HANA slides that it recently released.

There has been a partner ecosystem, which created immense value, jointly. Is this still the case? Nowadays SAP talks about partners but mostly regards them as “routes to market.” – Mezger
True, SAP has moved to be increasingly extractive, and this feedback comes from every SAP partner that I speak with.
