“Until today, VARs were typically on their own to manage and host their instances of SAP Business One. Now, the Lumen platform can quickly and cost effectively enable intelligent enterprises with SAP HANA in the cloud,” said Joost Tigelaar, SAP vice president of global SME ERP sales. “The Lumen platform can help partners and customers by offering them a choice of hybrid deployment models and cloud infrastructure providers, bringing the benefits of both SAP HANA and the cloud to our ecosystem.”
SAP Business One is SAP’s enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution for small businesses and the subsidiaries of midmarket and large enterprises, delivered globally through an ecosystem of over 800 authorized channel partners.
