This centre will deliver next-generation solutions on the SAP HANA platform and Sybase Unwired Platform, the mobile enterprise application platform that simplifies the development, deployment and management of mobile enterprise applications, the company announced on Friday.

"Customers across the globe are deploying SAP HANA and recognising the benefits of in-memory computing for their organisations.

Customers that have adopted Sybase Unwired Platform in India, include Lincoln Helios, Bill Forge, AS Cargo, Intas Pharma, Egon Zehnder International, among others, company sources said.

With SAP, businesses of all sizes can respond in a better way to real-time business dynamics through cost-efficient, simplified deployment, development and management of native and web-based mobile applications on a wide array of device types, company sources added.

"Mobility is fast becoming a regular way of life.

Organisations like ours need a mobile strategy to manage data and maximise efficiency.

"With SAP, our top management can now take quick and informed decisions, regardless of location, and with enhanced engagement levels with customers and partners," he added.

SAP India has already got 200 customers to subscribe to its new product. The service will also be available as a cloud computing service and the company plans to acquire a client base of small and medium enterprises in Tier-II and Tier-III cities.
