I've spent 25+ years in enterprise data — from SAP BW implementations to building SAP Datasphere and now SAP Business Data Cloud from the product side at SAP. Today my colleagues and I shape the product direction for SAP Business Data Cloud and SAP Datasphere — SAP's platform for building a trusted data foundation for enterprise AI. Outside of that I write a monthly newsletter on BDC and Datasphere news, run a YouTube channel covering top features and product updates, and have written several books on SAP data platforms (Espresso Tutorials, 2022 and 2025). In May 2026, the SAP Business Data Cloud session I ran at SAP Sapphire in Orlando became the #1 most registered session of the event — a clear signal of how much appetite there is for this topic. I am still a little speechless about that one. If you're into enterprise data platforms, agentic AI, or just want to know what's actually shipping in SAP's data stack — follow along.
