Like many successful multi-national companies, data is critical to Geberit. To better gain insights from their data, the European leader in sanitary products deployed SAP HANA Cloud as the center of their new hybrid data strategy. With this solution, Geberit streamlined their landscape and eliminated the need for middleware tools. Now, they gain the single, federated point of access to real-time data needed to make timely business decisions.
Geberit Transforms Their Data Landscape with SAP HANA Cloud
From data complexity to a clear hybrid path to the cloud
Founded in 1874 in Switzerland, Geberit has grown enormously since its earliest days. With Geberit’s global reach and a vast base of customers, gaining insights from data has never been more important. However, rapidly changing technology and a growing amount of data made getting insights from all their data a challenge. That’s why they decided to fully embrace a hybrid data strategy. This strategy would make it easier to use all data – and not just some – to make timely business decisions. A hybrid strategy would also leverage their on-premise investments while gaining the flexibility offered by the cloud.
Here is the story of how they accomplished this with SAP HANA Cloud, a fully-managed and cost-efficient cloud database platform.
SAP HANA Cloud will be center for all reporting in our data landscape. It's the single source of truth that connects all our data sources and gives us the insights we need.
