Alongside Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, and Google, disruptive vendors of cloud database management systems secured decorated positions in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant.
Most notably, SAP and Teradata were named as market leaders, demonstrating a strong vision and an exceptional ability to execute.
In a crowded marketplace, where the list of vendors and offerings grows ever longer, the position amongst industry giants will help to set these companies apart.
Thrilled by the announcement, JG Chirapurath, Chief Marketing and Solutions Officer at SAP, says:
We believe this latest Gartner report demonstrates how we’ve successfully transitioned our leadership in the data management space to the cloud.
In the report, its solution, SAP HANA CLOUD, received praise for its breadth and depth of functionality. Its multicloud, intercloud, and hybrid environments – in addition to a track record of steady adoption – were also noted, as Gartner continued to reveal the impressive findings.
Providing a unified, business-centric, and open platform for its customers, the SAP solution increases intelligence across the business. In doing so, it integrates and expands applications, streamlines workflows, and unlocks data-driven insights.
Such functionalities are a critical cog within the modern connected enterprise, which strives to enhance CX through collaboration.
Like SAP, Teradata garnered acclaim for the multicloud, intercloud, and hybrid environment within its Vantage Solution – especially in regards to "ease of use". Gartner also highlights data fabric, alongside system and financial predictability, as distinguishable strengths.
