ThoughtSpot Joins SAP PartnerEdge Program

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Aug. 19, 2020 — ThoughtSpot, provider of search and artificial intelligence (AI) driven analytics, announced that it has joined the SAP PartnerEdge program as a partner to help enterprises unlock unprecedented value from their data. As part of this partnership, Embrace has been extended to SAP HANA, empowering users to run search-driven analytics directly in SAP HANA, without having to transfer data. By leveraging the power and scale of SAP HANA combined with the simplicity and speed of ThoughtSpot, users throughout organizations can find meaningful insights that enhance decision making, improve processes, and deliver more value to the business.

Enterprises are embracing new infrastructures and warehouses to handle the explosion of data, and simultaneously looking for new ways to leverage this data to operate their business more efficiently and effectively. Embrace for SAP HANA allows business users to instantly access all of their organization’s data in SAP HANA in the cloud or on premise. ThoughtSpot’s platform gives these users the ability to get to the most granular level of data in SAP HANA though a simple search, all without having to copy, cache or move any data. Directly connecting ThoughtSpot to SAP HANA saves enterprise data teams time and resources spent moving data, while getting insights into the hands of the frontline workers who can benefit from it most.

Particularly during the pandemic, businesses have relied on AI and analytics for mission-critical functions to assess impact, compile contingency plans, and make forecasts amid an uncertain market – and Embrace for SAP HANA is delivering these functions at scale. In addition to SAP HANA, Embrace currently supports Teradata, Amazon Redshift, Google BigQuery, Microsoft Azure Synapse, and Snowflake, giving enterprises the flexibility to run search-driven analytics in whatever data environment makes the most sense for their particular use case.

“As enterprises increasingly look for new ways to unlock their data to navigate the current crisis and beyond, our SAP partnership will improve the ability for business users throughout an organization to find insights that streamline operations and drive better decisions,” said Seann Gardiner, SVP of Business Development and GM of Embrace, ThoughtSpot. “Our work with Embrace for SAP HANA showcases ThoughtSpot’s commitment to unleashing the full power of data where it lives, so that every business person can reap the benefits of data-driven decision-making. Our goal has always been to make it easier for enterprises to get the most out of their data with the least amount of effort.”

“As an investor in ThoughtSpot and close partner, we’ve always believed in ThoughtSpot’s mission to democratize data by empowering any user to find the insights they need to make informed business decisions,” said Rami Branitzky, Managing Director, Sapphire Ventures. “The work that ThoughtSpot has done over the past year to scale its Embrace platform has been key to helping enterprises uncover actionable data with search-driven analytics. ThoughtSpot is now taking Embrace to the next level by expanding support for the platform to SAP HANA, which simplifies the process of tapping into SAP HANA’s robust data set.”
