Business Software provider SAP AG (NYSE:SAP) announced on Friday (24 April) the opening of the third SAP Co-Innovation Lab, at SAP Labs India in Bangalore, which joins existing labs in Palo Alto, USA, and Tokyo, Japan.
According to the company, the SAP Co-Innovation Lab Bangalore, in operation since October 2008, offers a hands-on environment for SAP, independent software vendors (ISVs), system integrators (SIs) and technology partners to work together with customers on current and future technologies. The co-innovation lab network was established by the company to provide a physical environment for SAP, customers and partners to collaborate on solutions and offerings that will help solve today`s business challenges and opportunities.
Initially, the new lab will engage with the following partners: Arteria Technologies, Cisco (Nasdaq:CSCO), Cognizant (Nasdaq:CTSH), F5 Networks (Nasdaq:FFIV), Hewlett-Packard Company (NYSE:HPQ), Intel Corp (Nasdaq:INTC), Intelligroup, KLG Systel Ltd, Larson & Toubro Infotech Ltd, MindTree Ltd, MobileOne IP Ltd, NetApp (Nasdaq:NTAP) and Wipro Technologies (NYSE:WIT). Asian Paints, a paint company in India, is actively co-innovating with SAP and partners in the lab as a marquee customer.
The new Co-Innovation Lab hosts a simulated heterogeneous datacenter integrating hardware and infrastructure software from SAP and participating sponsors. Its members have an environment where they can work on proof-of-concepts and build and test new business processes and SOA solutions. In addition, the lab promotes new applications and technology solutions to SAP customers through joint seminars, community discussions and events, the company said.
