- Get hands-on with BI4 and experience real life project implementation scenarios
- Meet the best BI experts in the world - from SAP and from our customers and partners!
After various successful hands-on Elite Enablement sessions for different SAP products (the biggest hands-on session for over 130 customers and partners - BPC 10.0 NW MEGA Elite in November 2011), it is time to offer the Elite concept for the latest release of SAP Business Intelligence - BI4.
On November 5-9, 2012, the world’s best BI specialists, developers, solution and product managers will come together in Vancouver to host the top talent from our valued BI customers and partners at the BI4 Elite hands-on enablement session. This exclusive session covers a wide range of topics and offers different tracks for customers and partners that are SAP centric and for participants that are “agnostic” – meaning they run BI on non-SAP application back-ends.
In short, you don't have to run BW or SAP ERP to attend. We will discuss BI on non-SAP backends as well!
The class will be taught using the latest release of BI4 in the Amazon cloud including all the new features from Feature Pack 3. We will provide iPads to experience BI mobile hands-on. Agenda topics include:
- BI roadmap will be presented by Adam Binnie, Group Vice President for BI Solution Management
- BI tools including: Visual Intelligence, Web Intelligence, Dashboards, Analysis for OLAP and Office, Zen, etc. on top of
- Agnostic “non-SAP” back-ends
- SAP HANA
- SAP NetWeaver BW
- Installation, configuration, migration, lifecycle management (LCM), authentication
- troubleshooting and sizing
- BI mobile - which will be pervasive throughout the class
- HANA modeling
