SAP TechEd Top 10 (2010)

-
Here we go, Top 10 SAP TechEd topics 2010. Just like in 2009 and in 2008. Based on the 417 sessions published on the site I counted the hit ratio on the below listed topics. Not to be taken too seriously, just for fun ;-)

  1. (1, 1) SAP NetWeaver (93 sessions)
  2. (2, 10) Business Objects (45)
  3. (3, 6) ABAP (32)
  4. (5, 4) BPM (22)
  5. (4, 5) BI (18)
  6. (-, -) Sybase (17)
  7. (-, -) Mobile (15)
  8. (-, -) PI (13)
  9. (7, 9) Web Dynpro (12)
  10. (7, 10) Enterprise services (8)
    (-,-) Microsoft (8)
Runners up: Sybase and mobile applications. Looking forward to play around with that next week. And as predicted: Microsoft.
Droppers, not in the Top 10 anymore: Composition Environment (4 sessions, #8 in 2008, #9 in 2009), Java (4 sessions, #3 in 2008, #8 in 2009) and SOA (4 sessions, #2 in 2008, #6 in 2009).

Sybase is no surprise. Just as Business Objects wasn't last year. Java dropped out of the Top 10. Looking back at SAP TechEd 2009 you could predict that to happen. Last year all Java sessions were hidden somewhere at the end of the venue...

Prediction 1: A lot of demo's will be on base of Sybase platform.
Prediction 2: A lot of demo's will be presented with an iPad.

Some promotion on agile: Please attend my session PMC236, Applying agile to a Service-Oriented SAP Project: Mission Impossible?
You can read more on that on my SDN blog Spreading the agile word in the SAP world.

Don’t expect a silver bullet for agile, there is none. I will share our experiences and give you some tips on how to start applying agile to your own SAP project.

See you next week in Berlin, by the way I am wearing number 87 this time ;-)

The power of data, integrated data! How Shimano realizes 97% cost avoidance

Improve customer experience by integrating data to answer a common question like “When will this be available?” Learn how Shimano is using SAP Integration Suite to break down IT silo’s and deliver the right information at the right time to the right person. Shimano processes 12 million messages on a yearly basis and 75% of those interfaces are still point to point. They work perfectly fine, but maintenance is difficult. Shimano now modernizes its integration landscape to connect to customers (dealers) and logistic service providers using the Integration Suite of SAP Business Technology Platform. Do you want to know how much Shimano will save? Or how fast Shimano can connect to new customers/partners? You can find out in this episode of Business Innovation with SAP.

Professional Scrum Master \o/

Since 2009 I am a big fan of doing scrum , especially in SAP projects. I know there is a lot of fuzz going on around scrum, again especially in SAP projects ;-) But I am convinced that using scrum will really help you to fulfil your customer needs. Not the needs that have been defined some time ago, but the actual requirements to support business challenges. Requirements that can change along the way, just like business challenges. In the years since 2009 I've done a lot of talks on scrum , coached a lot of projects but 'forgot' to certify myself... So that was my personal challenge early May.
