SAP Architecture: From AI-First to AI-Native

Whitepaper on RISE and GROW as a first step towards the Autonomous Enterprise

Case study

Whilst companies that view AI merely as a tool may achieve local efficiency gains, they do not achieve structural transformation. To achieve this, SAP has developed a new vision: the SAP Autonomous Enterprise describes the next step in enterprise IT – moving away from isolated applications towards an AI-enabled, agent-based operating model.

In this white paper, you will learn – in a concise, clear and practical way – what defines this ‘AI-native’ approach, how it is transforming SAP architecture, and how RISE with SAP and GROW with SAP become key drivers of transformation in this context.
