AWS for SAP

Organizations that depend on SAP systems for crucial business processes require high availability and performance. As a result, an effective observability strategy is essential for maintaining operational efficiency. Several options are available for monitoring large SAP estates, including SAP HANA, Suite on HANA, and SAP S/4HANA.

Observability Solutions for SAP

Enterprises can utilize various observability solutions to monitor their SAP environments. Traditional tools like SAP Solution Manager provide comprehensive monitoring capabilities. However, integrating AWS services such as Amazon CloudWatch, Amazon Managed Prometheus, and Amazon Managed Grafana can offer enhanced observability, flexibility, and ease of use.

Amazon Managed Prometheus and Grafana

Amazon Managed Prometheus and Grafana are powerful tools for monitoring and visualizing the performance of SAP systems. Amazon Managed Prometheus is a fully managed service that simplifies the collection, querying, and storage of metrics. It supports Prometheus Query Language (PromQL) for powerful and flexible querying capabilities. Amazon Managed Grafana, on the other hand, provides rich visualizations and dashboards, making it easier to interpret data and gain insights into SAP system performance.

Combining AWS and SAP Solutions

By combining AWS observability services with traditional SAP monitoring tools, organizations can achieve a more comprehensive and scalable monitoring solution. This integration allows for proactive performance management and rapid problem resolution, ensuring that SAP systems remain highly available and efficient.

How Cloud2 Can Help

Cloud2 is an experienced AWS consultancy that can assist organizations in enhancing their SAP observability strategies. Our team of experts can help implement and integrate Amazon Managed Prometheus and Grafana with existing SAP environments. We provide tailored solutions that improve monitoring capabilities, ensuring optimal performance and availability of business-critical SAP systems.

Official Machine Learning Blog of Amazon Web Services

Developing an intelligent document processing (IDP) solution is made easier with Amazon Bedrock and Anthropic Claude 3 Sonnet. This post demonstrates how to extract data from scanned documents and input it into a database. The solution leverages the power of foundation models (FMs) offered by Amazon Bedrock.

Amazon Bedrock and Anthropic Claude

Amazon Bedrock provides a managed service that offers a variety of high-performing foundation models from leading AI companies like AI21 Labs, Anthropic, Cohere, Meta, Mistral AI, Stability AI, and Amazon. These models can be used for diverse applications, including IDP solutions. Anthropic Claude 3 Sonnet is particularly adept at processing unstructured data from scanned documents.

Metadata Filtering with Knowledge Bases

Metadata filtering is crucial for handling tabular data effectively. Amazon Bedrock equips FMs with up-to-date and proprietary information through Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). This technique ensures that generated data is accurate and relevant to the business context.

Small business owners often prioritize operational aspects over administrative tasks like financial record maintenance. A secure AccountantAI Chatbot, developed with Amazon Bedrock, provides a cost-effective solution by automating financial management tasks. This post, co-written with Lili, illustrates how their chatbot streamlines accounting processes for small businesses.
