SAP CIO topics include some of the most important issues facing SAP customers right now. As companies transform, the position of CIO has become central to that change. CIOs manage the software and infrastructure that enables companies to develop new business models, stay competitive with digital native organizations, and become more resilient against disruption.

As part of our SAP CIO content, we conduct executive-focused research in areas such as CIO priorities, change management, platform innovation, and transformation. Speaking with CIOs about these endeavors, as we do through our Technology Executive Forum, can offer guidance on the most important challenges SAPinsiders are facing, and the technology they are using to address those challenges.

  • RISE with SAP is SAP’s offering to help companies drive business innovation. It includes bundled software, platform, and services with simplified contracts. This is intended to make it easier and faster for organizations to innovate, improve processes, and modernize systems by moving to the cloud. RISE with SAP includes SAP S/4HANA Cloud, business process transformation solutions by SAP Signavio, credits for SAP Business Technology Platform, the SAP Business Network, and other partner tools and services.
  • SAP Architecture focuses on the technical requirements of your SAP system landscape and the applications that support it. SAP Architecture is fundamentally based on the three-layer concept of a presentation layer, application layer, and database layer.
  • SAP Digital Transformation includes content on organizations undergoing digital transformations, and best practices for supporting those projects. We talk with executives on their technology strategies as well as their change management and adoption strategies.
  • SAP Sustainability examines how executives can building companies that meet the needs of current generations without compromising the needs of future generations.
