SAP Analytics Cloud Now FedRAMP® Approved

Penny Klein |  August 2020

The wealth of government and intelligence data is far more valuable when integrated with powerful analytics tools, but in addition government agencies need a simple but secure way to access this data and make informed decisions. SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) integrates and analyzes data from multiple sources to provide government departments and agencies unified insights, visualizations, plans, and predictions. These powerful analytics capabilities are now available as part of the secure and growing FedRAMP®-authorized portfolio of government cloud capabilities designed and supported by SAP National Security Services (SAP NS2).

Powerful, unified analytics

Data and analytics are most effective when available in a unified solution, enabling easier comparisons, more effective insights, and faster responses. SAC combines a wide array of features into a single, scalable, secure cloud-based solution. Business Intelligence, predictive analytics, and organizational planning enable government agencies to explore data from multiple sources to quickly visualize relationships and potential outcomes. With the embedded artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, customers can discover, analyze, predict, and plan in one integrated experience.
