10:00 am - 10:30 am Building a Fully Integrated Data Ecosystem for the Future

Colin Dover - Senior Director, Business Technology Platform Center of Excellence, SAP

By leveraging the ability to generate, access, collect, analyze, and interpret data from multiple sources, organizations can seize considerable competitive and operational benefits. However, many lack the in-house expertise and resources to efficiently integrate and manage data. Thus, it is critical to learn best practices that facilitate full visibility into data movement between enterprise applications and systems and that improve the quality of the data being integrated. During this session, we will cover best practices to set your organization up for the future including:


  • Connecting all application endpoints, regardless of where they reside
  • Leveraging economies of scale and scope and agility with a next-generation cloud platform
  • Identifying trends and errors with real-time, web-based visibility
  • Offloading the complexities of application integration operations, and freeing IT resources to focus on core competencies
