Unfortunately, this is SAP Lumira discovery last innovation development, the current Lumira roadmap is the perfect example of that. It will, however, be maintained and supported by SAP till 2028, as long as you transfer to a supported SAP BusinessObjects release.

Generally, SAP Lumira Discovery can be used with the existing feature set and functionalities with an assurance that it will be supported for another decade.

Lumira Designer Roadmap

The roadmap includes:

Application Design

Some people still call storyboards a dashboard or a report. Even most complex and advanced IT-developed applications are called as the dashboard, more often than not. Basically, SAP customers never said goodbye to the complex applications with dashboard use cases (especially the ones that came from Web Application Design).

Legacy Tools Migration

SAP has proved to be the best server of application use case without a real competitor in the market. SAP is also recommending that the heritage BI products such as Web Application Designer (WAD), Xcelsius or SAP Dashboard and Analysis for OLAP be migrated to SAP Lumira Designer.   

App Design

The introduction of Application Design use case to SAP analytic cloud doesn’t simply mean that Lumira will not witness innovations such as Discovery or it will face similar problems as Discovery. There will always be customers who would stick to their existing on-premise system without moving to the cloud or those who would move to the cloud for better management.

It’s beneficial to bring successful application design onto the cloud in the long run for Lumira Design as it may require interoperability.

Dive Deep

As one of the top cloud provider, Microsoft is making migration and modernization as seamless as possible.

Feasible Technology:

From analytics to infrastructure, creating on-premises conversations to the cloud across the technology portfolio builds feasible technology for enterprises in modern strategy. It also serves to a large existing customer base for Microsoft, some of which ensued the cloud era.

Growing Partnership:

Microsoft has partnered with some of the leading retailers in other specialist technology areas to deliver leading solutions for their customers. According to some sources, the company has recently connected its cloud services with Oracle.

Now Microsoft is partnering with Informatica – industry leaders in data integration tools of Gartner.

The aim is all about joining customers and putting the load of facets like converting code on the vendors. The partnership is predicted to be growing the role of data played in the enterprise. Organizations are collecting as much information as they can but the truth is the data yields little insight until analytics are applied.

High-Volume Enterprise Data:

Enterprise analytics is going through ‘Renaissance’ because more organizations work to analyze and manage gathered data to figure out the pattern.
