Episode 86 – Predict and Analyze Retail Inventory Allocation using SAP Data Warehouse Cloud and FedML

In this episode of SAP Integration & Extension Talk, August’ 2022 we engage with experts from Platform Adoption Advisory team for SAP Business Technology Platform. They will talk about how SAP Data Warehouse Cloud and FedML hyperscaler libraries for Azure can be leveraged for creating an end-to-end automated solution for ML experiments on hyperscalers without moving or duplicating data to the hyperscaler. We then go deeper into understanding how businesses using SAP Business Technology Platform services, such as SAP Data Warehouse Cloud helps them model data coming in from different sources. Then how FedML, uses SAP Data Warehouse Cloud’s federation architecture to query the cloud data sources directly via the unified business layer and helps automate the training, building and deployment using only few lines of code.
