What a powerful keynote speech from SAP CEO Bill McDermott this morning to open the SAPPHIRE 2014! Speed, Simplicity and Personalization are the key success factors for SAP software as Bill outlined.
Over Crowded Google Glass Demo Theater Session
We had the first Google Glass demo theater session today. Over 100 people attended with standing room only at the end. This Google Glass demo enables a hands-free laptop repair scenario with connectivity through Cloud to SAP systems to retrieve laptop details, repair steps, parts inventory and order missing parts real-time via Gateway services. The app also provides video guide with repair procedure and the video conferencing ability to consult with 2nd level support. In this demo SAP Gateway plays a key role in the integration to SAP system.
If you missed today’s session, check out the other Google Glass demo sessions listed below. If you are at SAPPHIRE, you can even play with it yourself on Industry Campus at the Retail expert table (IN123) .
