all without moving their data into an external system . With SAP Signavio solutions natively integrated , SAP Build users also get in-depth visibility into all their processes , so they know where to focus to achieve the greatest impact as they innovate and automate . More than 275,000 process reference points from 4,000 customers , as well as 1,300 use-case specific workflows and automations , let users instantly tap into the full spectrum of business expertise built into SAP ’ s technology . SAP Build also works with non-SAP systems . And the new SAP Builders program helps users ramp up quickly and connect with their peers via hands-on sessions and forums for sharing best practices .
Arnal Dayaratna , Research Vice President , Software Development , IDC , said : “ Given that the demand for contemporary digital solutions is greater than the ability of professional developers to supply them , IDC envisions that business professionals will become increasingly involved in initiatives to create digital solutions to solve pressing business problems .”
Dayaratna added : “ Worldwide , IDC expects more than 100 million business professionals will become involved in the production of digital solutions over the next 10 years . SAP Build ’ s low-code development solutions empower business users to harness their domain expertise to rapidly build and iterate on digital solutions at scale .”
SAP ’ s Jaber said : “ These commitments are particularly significant in our region , and SAP remains committed to supporting the rapid digital transformation and creation of sustainable solutions by developing the technology skills of Lebanese citizens .” p
