SAP dévoile des nouvelles innovations en matière de développement d’applications d’IA générative et de capacités de bases de données vectorielles, et propose de nouvelles opportunités d’apprentissage pour les développeurs à l’ère de l’IA.

BANGALORE, Inde – Le 2 novembre 2023 – Lors de l’événement SAP TechEd 2023, SAP SE (NYSE : SAP) a présenté une gamme complète de fonctionnalités et d’avancées en matière d’IA générative permettant aux développeurs, quel que soit leur niveau de compétence, de dynamiser leurs activités à l’ère de l’IA.

« Le dynamisme du paysage technologique et commercial d’aujourd’hui signifie que chaque développeur doit être un développeur d’IA », a déclaré Juergen Mueller, Chief Technology Officer et membre du Board de SAP SE. « Les innovations que nous lançons à TechEd, qu’il s’agisse d’outils de pro-code infusés d’IA ou d’un portail unique pour créer des extensions et des applications génératives d’IA sur SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP), assurent aux développeurs qui sont au cœur de la révolution de l’IA, de disposer des ressources dont ils ont besoin, pour transformer le fonctionnement des entreprises. »

 

SAP Build Code : un nouveau logiciel low-code pour favoriser la coopération entre les experts-métier

Alors que les organisations cherchent à capitaliser sur l’IA générative, une collaboration efficace entre les développeurs professionnels et les développeurs citoyens est essentielle. C’est la raison pour laquelle SAP lance SAP Build Code, qui simplifie la coopération entre les experts-métier qui utilisent les solutions low-code de SAP Build lancées au TechEd 2022. Conçu spécifiquement pour les applications et l’écosystème SAP, SAP Build Code propose des outils de productivité alimentés par l’IA et est optimisé pour le développement en Java et JavaScript.

SAP Build Code s’appuie également sur la puissance du nouveau copilote d’IA générative de SAP : Joule – le seul copilote qui comprend réellement le langage business – pour augmenter davantage la productivité, en intégrant des capacités de génération de code pour la création de modèles de données, de logique d’application et de scripts de test.

De nouvelles fonctionnalités clés sur SAP HANA Cloud

Pour le fonctionnement optimal d’une IA, il est indispensable de disposer de données pertinentes. C’est pourquoi SAP HANA Cloud, qui continue d’être pionnier dans les innovations liées aux datas, ajoute de nouvelles fonctionnalités de base de données vectorielles à ses offres multi-modèles, et ce, sans coût supplémentaire. Les datastores vectoriels gèrent les données non structurées – texte, images ou audio – pour fournir une mémoire à long terme et un meilleur contexte aux modèles d’IA. Cela facilite la recherche et la récupération rapide d’objets similaires. Les utilisateurs peuvent par exemple rechercher des fournisseurs en fonction de la langue de leurs contrats, pour examiner l’historique des paiements et tracer les commandes individuelles. Ces nouvelles fonctionnalités de base de données vectorielles améliorent considérablement les interactions entre les grands modèles de langage et les données critiques d’une organisation. Cette innovation permet aux développeurs SAP d’être à l’avant-garde de la recherche de données radicalement nouvelles, dans un cadre sécurisé et privé, qui utilise des données clients spécifiques à l’industrie pour réduire les hallucinations.

AI Foundation pour disposer d’outils d’IA clés en main

AI Foundation, un nouveau portail unique permettant aux développeurs de créer des extensions et des applications alimentées par l’IA et l’IA générative sur SAP BTP, augmentera encore l’impact et l’efficacité des développeurs. AI Foundation comprend tout ce dont les développeurs ont besoin pour commencer à créer des outils d’IA clés en main sur SAP BTP – allant des services d’IA prêts à l’emploi et de l’accès aux meilleurs modèles de grands langages, aux capacités de bases de données vectorielles et à la gestion du cycle de vie et de l’exécution de l’IA.

Le lancement de nouvelles certifications sur le site d’apprentissage SAP

La course effrénée vers l’innovation dans la Tech a fait grimper la demande mondiale en développeurs qualifiés, et SAP augmente parallèlement ses opportunités d’apprentissage. Dans le cadre de son engagement à former deux millions de professionnels d’ici 2025 et à enrichir le contenu d’apprentissage gratuit sur l’IA déjà disponible, SAP a lancé aujourd’hui une nouvelle certification basée sur les rôles et des ressources d’apprentissage gratuites pour les développeurs back-end qui utilisent le modèle de développement ABAP Cloud. Les deux nouvelles ressources d’apprentissage regroupant les outils de développement ABAP sur SAP BTP et SAP S/4HANA sont disponibles sur le site SAP Learning. Elles sont conçues pour une transformation des entreprises agile et conforme au cloud, fournissant aux développeurs les compétences nécessaires pour créer des applications prêtes pour le cloud et alignées sur la stratégie de base propre de SAP.

SAP a rejoint le programme d’affiliation d’entreprise de l’Institut de Stanford pour l’IA centrée sur l’homme (HAI). Les chercheurs et ingénieurs de SAP collaboreront avec la communauté académique de Stanford, y compris le corps professoral de recherche et les étudiants, sur les synergies entre l’IA générative et le monde des affaires

As we move into 2023, there are an increasing number of ways companies can engage with their customers. And as the number of apps, browser extensions, social media feeds, newsletters, vlogs, and podcasts grows, you can be forgiven for thinking that websites are a little less essential than they were in say, 2021.

However, the truth is that websites remain an irreplaceable part of the digital landscape and they will continue to be into 2023 and beyond.

Websites, as the keystone of a centralized, privately run digital experience couldn’t be more relevant. Unlike competing technologies, websites allow almost total control of their source code, and that provides an opportunity for skilled designers and developers to compete against the biggest names in their clients’ industries in a way that simply isn’t possible in tightly governed systems like social media.

Not only does quality web design help businesses increase their traffic, but it can increase the quality of that traffic; an attractive and user-friendly web page will encourage web users to stay on the page longer, and explore more of the content it links to.

Websites vs. Social Media

For many brands, the option they turn to for connecting with customers is social media. Particularly platforms like Facebook and Instagram. While billions of us are happy to while away our free time on social media, it’s not a great platform for informed decision-making or task fulfillment. For any form of productivity, websites are superior:

  • Flexibility: Websites can be customized to suit a company’s vision and values, whereas social media tends to magnify accounts that reflect its own values.
  • Ownership: When you publish on your website you own your content, when you post to social media the platform tends to own your content.
  • Investment: As we’ve seen recently with a certain bird-themed social network, you can spend years investing time in your social media channel only to have it canceled by an individual with his own agenda.
  • Findability: Websites are discoverable on search engines, and although algorithms govern these search engines, competition across different search engines keeps search algorithms honest. Social media networks each use a single algorithm making them free to skew browsing any way they choose.
  • Scaleability: Websites can take advantage of the latest technologies to improve user experience, on social media user experience is governed by the network’s decisions.

Websites vs. Apps

When it comes to owning a piece of the internet, a connected app feels like ownership. However, websites have a number of benefits over an app, from a superior user experience to lower development costs. And ultimately, apps are also controlled by 3rd parties.

  • Accessibility: Websites are universally accessible, while apps are usually limited to certain operating systems or platforms. If you want to distribute to devices, you’ll need to be approved by the store owner who can (and will) change the terms and conditions of store distribution without consulting you.
  • Flexibility: Websites provide a greater level of flexibility and scalability than apps.
  • Cost-effective: A simple website can be created and launched in a weekend, they are considerably more cost-effective to develop and maintain than apps.
  • Findability: Search engines have evolved around website technologies, and it is far easier to create a discoverable website than an app that ranks high in an app store.
  • Universality: Websites have lower entry costs for users, and there aren’t any downloads or purchases required.
  • 3rd-party features: Websites can integrate 3rd-party content like chatbots, payment gateways, and forms, that generally require licensing to include in an app.

Websites vs. Podcasts and Vlogs

There’s no question that podcasts and vlogs are engaging types of content. However, they are very limited when it comes to different kinds of experience. These tend to be passive, linear experiences. Even if your podcast opens itself up to listener interaction, your customers are still passive consumers.

  • Cost-effective: Websites can be set up very cheaply, podcasts and vlogs on the other hand require high-production values to compete.
  • Longevity: Well-written website content can remain relevant for years, the lifespan of a vlog or podcast is often just a few months.
  • Flexibility: Websites can embed podcasts and vlogs, as well as virtually any other content; podcasts and vlogs can only ever be podcasts and vlogs. Websites will continue to evolve long after podcasts are obsolete.
  • Simple: There is now a range of no-code options for creating a reliable website, meaning it can be done with little to no skills or experience. Podcasts and vlogs require a great deal of technical knowledge to produce.
  • Findability: As with other technologies, podcasts and vlogs can’t compete with websites when it comes to search engine optimization.
  • Faster: A well-designed website is much smaller than a podcast or vlog, making it cheaper and easier to access, especially on a cellular network.

Websites in 2023 and Beyond

In 2023 websites will still be a critical part of a successful business strategy and web designers will continue to be essential members of any team.

Websites continue to offer numerous benefits over other technologies including increased flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and superior search engine opportunities.

Unlike social media platforms that allow you to customize a few assets like avatars and colors, websites can be completely customized to fit the tone and style of a brand. Additionally, websites have a far lower barrier to entry than podcasts, vlogs, or apps. While apps may offer a richer set of features than a website, that is offset by the restrictions on platform and device capabilities that apps impose.

Websites will continue to evolve as the tech landscape changes. New ideas for consuming digital media will appear over time, offering unique new experiences — for example, mass adoption of AR (Augmented Reality) is just around the corner. However, the website is perfectly evolved for the types of simple customer interaction that businesses rely on, and will continue to matter in 2023 and beyond.

User Experience

You’ll only need to fill out three fields to sign up. However, it would have been better if users could create accounts automatically with their Gmail. It’ll save you the stress of logging into your email to activate the MailChimp account.

Plusieurs études ont démontré que les compétences numériques en France et en Europe ne sont pas assez développées, et que le secteur risque d’être confronté à un déficit important sur les toutes prochaines années. L’implémentation des solutions SAP fait appel à de l’expertise très recherchée depuis de nombreuses années, et encore plus aujourd’hui avec l’accélération de la transformation digitale des entreprises.

De nombreux projets d’implémentation et de déploiement ont toujours cours et les nouvelles installations nécessitent des ressources compétentes sur le déploiement dans le Cloud, le socle technologique SAP BTP (Business Technology Platform), les solutions applicatives et les analytiques de SAP. Nos clients ont le désir d’innover dans leur secteur à travers l’installation des solutions SAP et l’innovation, quelque soit le domaine, nécessite l’acquisition de nouvelles compétences. Le monde de demain appartient aux organisations apprenantes qui permettront à leurs employés de se former tout au long de leur carrière.

Plusieurs profils sont nécessaires pour mener à bien l’implémentation d’un système d’information ERP: chef de projet, architecte solution, consultant technique, développeur, consultant applicatif, business process owner, technicien support, utilisateur métier, formateur, etc. Les métiers de consultant applicatif, de business process owner ou de technicien support ne font pas forcément appel à une formation initiale dans le secteur du numérique telle que le développement, l’architecture ou l’administration de systèmes. Les consultants applicatifs sont en général recrutés et très appréciés pour leurs compétences dans un domaine métier de l’entreprise, tel que la Finance, les Ressources Humaines ou la Supply Chain par exemple et sont souvent issus des écoles de Management ou des formations universitaires en gestion. Certains de ces métiers s’exercent au sein des ESN (Entreprises du Secteur Numérique) et d’autres au sein des DSI des entreprises utilisatrices de SAP.
Devant le besoin massif de nouvelles compétences et afin de faciliter le recrutement et la formation des profils nécessaires à l’écosystème de partenaires et de clients, SAP Learning a mis en place plusieurs programmes de formation. La plupart de ces programmes mènent à une certification SAP , diplôme qui permet de faire valoir ses compétences auprès des employeurs et de rassurer les clients quant aux ressources intervenant dans les projets portés par les ESN. Être certifié SAP aujourd’hui, c’est disposer d’un atout majeur pour sa carrière et pour assurer une implémentation de qualité de nos solutions !

3- Programme People To Work

Le programme People To Work a été créé en Allemagne il y a plus de 20 ans, a plusieurs avantages : recruter, former et certifier des consultants ou des utilisateurs métier, avec l’aide de financements gouvernementaux, ce qui permet de réduire les coûts de ces processus, voire de les annuler totalement pour les entreprises recruteuses. Les candidats sont en effet obligatoirement demandeurs d’emploi, inscrits à Pôle Emploi. L’ambition est de permettre à de jeunes diplômés de trouver un premier emploi à la fin de leur parcours d’études ou à des personnes ayant perdu leur emploi de se reconvertir vers un métier du secteur numérique.

Cette mission a été confiée à deux partenaire en France : FITEC et M2I Formation.

Ces deux partenaires se chargent de sourcer les participants au programme de formation auprès de Pôle Emploi, présentent les CV aux entreprises recruteuses, qui après acceptation du profil devront formuler une promesse d’embauche (financement Pôle emploi assujetti à cette condition).

La formation des consultants sur les domaines applicatifs SAP les plus demandés (SAP S/4HANA modules finance et logistique) dure 3 mois et peut mener à une certification. Elle peut inclure également des compétences complémentaires sur les métiers de la comptabilité ou de la logistique, de la gestion de projet, la réponse à un cahier des charges, la gestion de tickets de support aux utilisateurs ou la prise de parole en public par exemple.

La formation d’autres profils tels que les utilisateurs métier (comptables, gestionnaire de l’administration des ventes ou des achats) ou les techniciens de support est aussi assurée dans le cadre du programme People To work. La formation va essentiellement porter sur les processus métier déroulés dans les applications SAP et dure de 15 à 20 jours en présentiel ou de 3 mois en auto-formation accompagnée par un tuteur.

Les deux programmes consultants ou utilisateurs se déroulent en salle ou en classe virtuelle au choix, en langue française et les partenaires disposent du matériel de formation officiel de SAP traduit en français : accès à la plateforme de formation numérique SAP Learning Hub et systèmes de formation SAP pour la pratique des exercices.

Ce programme a été déployé en France à partir de janvier 2020 et a permis de former plus de 1200 personnes sur SAP, dont 460 consultants et 760 utilisateurs métier, et a remporté le Trophées Défi RSE en décembre 2021 pour sa dimension responsable et sociétale :  100% des consultants et 80% des utilisateurs ont retrouvé un emploi à l’issue de la formation.

Résumé des avantages du programme : recrutement, formation, certification, modules applicatifs SAP les plus populaires, langue française, formation des consultants et des utilisateurs métier, financement gouvernementaux et coût proche de zéro pour les entreprises.

4- Partner Talent Initiative

Le Partner Talent Initiative a été lancé en juin 2022. Géré par SAP au niveau européen, il a pour vocation de former de nouveaux consultants qui seront recrutés essentiellement par les partenaires de SAP. Le programme prend également en charge le recrutement des apprenants avec une cible plus large qui inclut des demandeurs d’emploi ou des personnes en activité souhaitant se reconvertir sur le métier de consultant SAP. L’apprenant est rémunéré pendant la durée de la formation. Le programme est payant pour les partenaires recruteurs, à un coût très avantageux compte tenu des prestations proposées.

Les formations portent sur les dernières technologies de SAP, incluant des modules de déploiement de la version Cloud de SAP : à titre d’exemple, les modules SAP S/4HANA Financial Accounting, SAP SuccessFactors et SAP BTP font partie du planning de cette fin d’année. Les formations s’étendent sur une durée de 5 à 8 semaines, selon les solutions SAP étudiées. La formation se déroule en langue anglaise, en classe virtuelle avec un animateur ainsi qu’en auto-formation sur la plateforme SAP Learning Hub.

5-  Académies Blended SAP – Programmes des centres de formation SAP

Les académies Blended SAP existent depuis de nombreuses années, sont délivrées par les centres de formation SAP pour former les consultants et permettent de mener à une certification. Elles peuvent se faire dans le cadre de la formation professionnelle des employés, et peuvent être financées par les OPCOs.

Les formations couvrent les sujets de paramétrage de SAP S/4HANA, mais aussi les sujets technologiques ou les analytiques, se déroulent en langue française, en salle de classe présentielle ou en classe virtuelle au choix, sur une durée de 3 semaines intensives. En prérequis, les participants devront étudier un ou deux modules SAP en auto-formation sur la plateforme SAP Learning Hub.

Apple has released an OS update. Packaged in with it is the latest version of Safari, 16.

Expected to be released ahead of next month’s macOS 13, Safari 16 is packed with updates, making it one of the most capable browsers available.

For web designers, the significance is the forward momentum in web technologies that enable freer design work and fewer hacks to achieve complex layouts. Little by little, CSS recommendations are being implemented to the point that using JavaScript for layout is rapidly becoming as unnecessary as it is disliked.

Some of this was announced in June in the Safari 16 beta. But a lot has been added in the last couple of months. So here’s what’s new in Safari 16 today.

CSS Container Queries

The most exciting addition to Safari 16 is CSS Container Queries.

It is hard to understate how in-demand this feature has been; if you imagine an edit button on Twitter that gifted you crypto every time you corrected a typo, you’d be getting close to how popular this feature is.

Until now, media queries have detected the whole viewport. And so, if you have an element like a card, for example, that needs to change at smaller viewports, you need to calculate the available space and adapt the element’s design accordingly. Unfortunately, this frequently gets out of sync with edge cases causing more than a few headaches for front-end developers.

Media queries are severely restrictive to modern layout methods like Grid that wrap elements automatically because there is no way to detect how the elements are laid out.

Container Queries solve this by allowing you to define styles based on the size of the actual containing element; if a div is 300px wide, the contents can have one design, and if it’s 400px wide, they can have a different design—all without caring what size the whole viewport is.

This is dangerously close to OOP (Object Orientated Programming) principles and almost elevates CSS to an actual programming language. (All we need is conditional logic, and we’re there.)

The latest versions of Chrome, Edge, and now Safari (including mobile) support CSS Grid. Even discounting the rapid decline of Twitter, this is way more exciting than any edit button.

CSS Subgrid

Speaking of Grid, if you’ve built a site with it (and if you haven’t, where have you been?), you’ll know that matching elements in complex HTML structures often results in nesting grids. Matching those grids requires careful management, CSS variables, or both. With CSS Subgrid, grids can inherit grid definitions from a grid defined higher up the hierarchy.

CSS Subgrid has been supported by Firefox for a while but is not yet part of Chrome or Edge. Until there’s wider support, it’s not a practical solution, and using a fallback negates any benefit of using Subgrid. However, its introduction in Safari will surely herald rapid adoption by Google and Microsoft and moves the web forward considerably.

CSS Subgrid is likely to be a practical solution within 18 months.

AVIF Support

AVIF is an exceptionally compact image format that beats even WebP in many instances. It even allows for sequences, creating what is essentially an animated GIF but smaller, and for bitmaps.

AVIF is already supported by Chrome, with partial support in Firefox. Safari now joins them.

AVIF support is one of the more valuable additions to Safari 16 because you’re probably already serving different images inside a picture element. If so, your Safari 16 users will begin receiving a smaller payload automatically, speeding up your site and boosting UX and SEO.

Enhanced Animation

Safari 16 introduces some significant improvements in animation, but the one that catches the eye is that you can now animate CSS Grid.

Yes, let that sink in. Combine Container Queries and animation. The possibilities for hover states on elements are tantalizing.

Safari 16 also supports CSS Offset Path — known initially as CSS Motion Path — which allows you to animate elements along any defined path. This enables the kind of animated effect that previously needed JavaScript (or Flash!) to accomplish.

Chrome, Edge, and Firefox all support CSS Offset Path; the addition of Safari means it’s now a practical solution that can be deployed in the wild.

Web Inspector Extensions

Announced as part of the beta release, Web Inspector Extensions allow web developers to create extensions for Safari, just as they would for Chrome.

Web Inspector Extensions — or Safari Extensions as they’re destined to be known — can be built in HTML, CSS, and JS, so the learning curve is shallow. It’s a good route into app development for web designers.

Because the underlying technology is the same as other browser extensions, anyone who has made a Chrome, Edge, or Firefox extension will be able to port it to Safari 16+ relatively easily. As a result, there should be a rapid expansion of the available extensions.

Improved Accessibility

Accessibility is key to an effective and inclusive web. Be like Bosch: everybody counts, or nobody counts.

When testing a design for accessibility, emulators don’t cut it. In my experience, Safari has some of the most reliable accessibility settings, especially when it comes to Media Queries like prefers-reduced-movement.

Further gains in this field mean that Safari continues to be an essential tool for QA tests.

Reduced Resets

Finally, I want to throw up my hands to celebrate the reduced number of non-standard CSS appearance settings.

For years we’ve been prefacing our style sheets with elaborate resets like Normalize, designed to undo all the assumptions browser developers make about design and the UI preferences of their engineers.

Safari 16 has reportedly “Removed most non-standard CSS appearance values.” How effective this is and how much we can rely on it given the other browsers on the market remains to be seen. However, like many of Safari 16’s changes, it’s a step towards a browser that’s on the developers’ side instead of an obstacle to overcome.

Visual Studio Code is a great code editor that comes with JavaScript and TypeScript features like basic refactoring out of the box. However, its true strength is an outstanding extension marketplace. There are extensions for almost anything you might want to do in an IDE (Integrated Development Environment), and they can make VS Code many times better.

Unfortunately, it can be time-consuming to find the right extensions and configure VS Code. Many developers prefer the out-of-the-box experience that IDEs such as Webstorm provide. This blog post shows how Visual Studio Code extensions can help you enhance the IDE experience for JavaScript. It covers:
