  • // 12 How Phil Cooley and his team help customers get the most out of their SAP investment

    In this episode we have a discussion with my good friend Phil Cooley. Phil is the CTO of Bourne Digital in Melbourne Australia and a standout example of an SAP community member who is an active learner and participant in all things SAP. DISCLAIMER: this episode was recorded prior to SAP rebranding to the SAP Business Technology Platform so all references to SAP Cloud Platform are used in that pre BTP context. Phil tells us about how to help customers with real use cases connecting SAP data with the SAP Cloud Platform, advantages of using replicated data, as well as using IFrames extensions, and of course API’s. Enjoy!

          About Bluebeard's Tech Talk

          From the publisher's feed

          Hi, I have a blue beard and I am in the tech world. I invite you to join me as I chat about all things tech that interest me. As a developer advocate for SAP I have a lot of insight into what's happening at SAP, specifically around our Cloud Platform, AWS partnership, container apps and lots of other cool stuff. I also love coffee, bourbon, and vinyl records. So expect some of that to get mixed in with the tech talk. While I am an employee of SAP the content shared here is mine and not SAP's official content.
