A standardized ERP Core will be the basis of a modular and agile
architecture

Data Integration LayerLinking of data across all levels
Monolithic ERP Core• Far off standard• Inflexible
• High-maintenance
Today: monolithic In future: modular & agile
SAP satellite
systems
Commodity services• Plug & Play• Software-as-a-Service
Differentiated applications• Agile development• Customized
• Platform-as-a-Service
Reduced ERP Core• Efficient & Fast• Close to standard
