SAP AI Core
Confidently deploy and integrate AI models designed for SAP applications, cost-efficiently at scale while preserving privacy and compliance.
Get ready for a firework of SAP Business AI product innovations! From Joule, SAP’s generative AI copilot, to SAP applications and SAP Business Technology Platform – there are so many things we have in store for you – relevant to your business, and responsible by design.
Take a closer look at what our teams delivered the past two quarters and benefit from real-world results!
SAP and NVIDIA announced a partnership expansion focused on accelerating enterprise customers’ ability to harness the transformative power of data and generative AI across SAP’s portfolio of cloud solutions and applications. The companies are collaborating to build and deliver SAP Business AI, including scalable, business-specific generative AI capabilities inside the Joule copilot from SAP and across SAP’s portfolio of cloud solutions and applications – all of which are underpinned by the SAP generative AI hub.
Let’s delve deeper into the heart of SAP's comprehensive architecture components underpinning business AI – the generative AI hub. Get technical insights on how it brings together trusted LLM access, business grounding for LLMs, and LLM exploration.
In this tutorial video you will learn how to use the generative AI hub on SAP AI Core using the SAP AI Launchpad, use cases leveraging LLMs, learn about different prompting techniques such as few-shot and zero-shot prompting, and tips to improve your prompts!
The generative AI hub provides tooling for prompt engineering, experimentation, and other capabilities to accelerate the development of your SAP BTP applications infused with generative AI, in a secure and trusted way. AI development teams can submit a prompt to multiple LLMs, compare the generated outcomes to identify the best-suited model for the task, and gain greater control and transparency with the built-in prompt history.
At SAP, we view AI not as a standalone technology, but as an integrated part of our business applications that infuses intelligence natively into business processes.
Dive deeper into various aspects of SAP’s approach to generative AI and its technical underpinnings with this blog post, the first of a series with Dr. Philipp Herzig, Senior Vice President, Head of Cross Product Engineering & Experience at SAP.
First Steps
SAP AI Core is an SAP BTP service to confidently deploy and manage artificial intelligence models that natively integrate with SAP applications. It's the foundational layer of AI in SAP BTP.
To get your first hands-on experience with SAP AI Core, complete our first tutorial for beginners.
Key Features
Execute pipelines
Execute pipelines as a batch job, for example, to preprocess or train your models, or perform batch inference.
Serve inference requests
Deploy а trained machine learning model as a Web service to serve inference requests of trained models with high performance.
Benefit from multitenancy support
Use this service in tenant-aware applications. Implement multi-tenant services to segregate your AI assets and executions to isolate your tenants within SAP AI Core.
Integrate your cloud infrastructure
Register your Docker registry, synchronize your AI content from your git repository, and register your object store for training data and trained models. Productize your AI content and expose it as a service to consumers in the SAP BTP marketplace.
Become an Expert
Once you have mastered the basics of SAP AI Core and deployed your first machine learning model, there is more advanced content in store for you!

Generative AI Hub in SAP AI Core
SAP developers can expedite their generative AI development of SAP BTP applications in a secure and trusted way with the generative AI hub. This capability gives streamlined access to a broad range of large language models (LLMs) from different providers (such as GPT-4 by Azure OpenAI or OpenSource Falcon-40b), facilitated in a more secure, harmonized, and orchestrated manner; thereby boosting efficiency and productivity.
Developers can orchestrate multiple models, whether programmatically via SAP AI Core or via the playground within SAP AI Launchpad, and ensure high-quality output by choosing the large language model that best aligns with their unique use case. They can leverage all features while relying on a data privacy policy and robust measures, ensuring secure and trusted operations.
Each generative AI model yields unique qualities and strengths. To meet customers’ needs for their business, SAP has made a strategic move to provide enterprise-grade access to the most common models through its generative AI hub as part of SAP AI Core. This includes leading cloud vendors as well as SAP-managed third-party models deployed on SAP’s own infrastructure for highest compliance standards. All available and upcoming generative AI-powered capabilities from SAP are running on the generative AI hub.
