Event-driven integration helps SAP customers modernize their application infrastructure with decoupled, real-time communications.
Thanks to event-driven integration and Solace, SAP customers can extend SAP software and cloud services to tackle the real-time data distribution it takes to seize opportunities like agentic AI and edge computing.”
SAP customers need a new integration approach that decouples systems and makes data available everywhere it’s needed, as things happen—they need event-driven integration.
SAP has added hundreds of event objects to SAP Business Accelerator Hub, all designed to get real-time information flowing across your enterprise via SAP Integration Suite, advanced event mesh, which is powered by Solace.
Imagine if everything that happened throughout your business — new orders, low inventory, equipment failures, customer complaints…whatever — was immediately communicated to every system or person that could do something about it.
By replacing batch and point-to-point integrations with event-driven data flow, advanced event mesh links applications, cloud services and connected devices across your enterprise in real-time, from the factory floor to your customer’s door, and everything in between.
Thanks to asynchronous publish/subscribe communications, built-in high availability, and the ability to span clouds, datacenters and edge environments, advanced event mesh can help you accelerate time-to-value, reduce backlogs, and improve responsiveness.
Event-driven integration supports SAP’s clean core strategy by decoupling custom logic from ECC or S/4HANA and externalizing the routing of information to an event mesh. This enables workflows, business rules, and app triggers without modifying the ERP core so you can easily upgrade and introduce systems with less risk and technical debt.
Advanced event mesh’s architecture aligns with SAP’s best practices for modular architecture, supports hybrid environments during and after migration, and its cloud-native consumption-based model supports cost-effective scaling from pilot to production.
Farys collaborated with two other Belgian water companies to build a sector-wide smart water platform. As part of that, SAP Integration Suite, advanced event mesh has transformed the company’s smart water capabilities from annual readings to daily actions.
The platform gives real-time visibility to over two million smart meter readings per day, sharing these events in real time across multiple applications for further handling and data analysis. This real-time reporting eliminates overnight runs and allows teams to make business decisions in the moment
JDE uses EDA to enable enterprise-wide data flows and event portal to create, manage, and reuse events, event streams, and event-driven APIs.
Replacing polling and batch updates with real-time event delivery means documents are always delivered in near-real-time even during peak demand, removing the performance concerns that once required all-hands-on-deck.
Danone used EDA to build a real-time, event-driven digital system called Cortex that enables real-time data flow across Danone’s factories, warehouses, and enterprise systems.
Real-time insights enable faster, data-driven decision-making, while superior agility lets them quickly deploy solutions across factories and distribution centers. By eliminating inefficient integrations, they've reduce overhead and achieved significant cost savings while building a strong foundation for Industry 5.0.
The best way to quickly suss out if and how event-driven integration can help you improve your system’s speed and scalability is to chat with one of the members of our global tiger team of SAP experts.
Whether you just want to ask a couple questions or book a 1:1 consultation, let us know what you’d like to talk about so we can hook you up with the “tiger” we think you’ll have the most fruitful conversation with.
This blog post explains why enabling events on SAP platforms is crucial, and the critical role effective event governance and management play in ensuring a successful transition to event-driven architecture.
