In early 2023, SAP and its open data partners introduced the business data fabric architecture, enabling organisations to deliver meaningful data to every data consumer – with business context and logic intact. This innovative approach to managing and connecting data enables you to access insights wherever your data resides. If you work with data, SAP Data Unleashed 2024 is an essential, 60-minute virtual event where you can learn how to bring out your best in data, AI, and planning.

Adobe will cover new beta features available now and discuss what’s to come.
