Clean Core, Without Compromise: A CPO’s Perspective on Navigating SAP Cloud Transformation and the Future of AI. | Blog
5 Key Take-Aways
- Clean Core is the enabler—not the end goal. Keeping the ERP lean creates the agility you need to layer on innovation like AI and future-proof upgrades.
- Modernize at your own pace. A dual-deployment model lets you start in-stack on ECC/S/4HANA and later move side-by-side—re-using the same logic and Fiori UX while staying Clean-Core compliant.
- Reuse, don’t rebuild. Expose existing ABAP via OData/REST and wrap it with low-code tools so you can slash technical debt without starting from scratch.
- AI belongs inside everyday workflows. Smart assistants, natural-language UIs, and data-driven automations should live in the apps employees already use—not in isolated “innovation labs.”
- Clean Core + AI-readiness is a single strategy. You can’t unlock enterprise AI if legacy custom code clogs your core—so tackle both modernization and AI enablement together.
