Welcome to the Cloud Wars Minute — your daily news and commentary show, hosted by Cloud Wars Founder Bob Evans. Each episode provides insights and perspectives around the “reimagination machine” that is the Cloud.
In this Cloud Wars Minute, Bob describes the “new SAP,” which has made its sweeping transition to the cloud and introduced a new series of solutions titled SAP Build.
