Introduction
Skybuffer AI, built on the robust SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), is the latest and most advanced version of our Conversational AI development, a journey we embarked on in 2018. Our solution now addresses a wide range of AI needs, from Conversational AI to cutting-edge Generative AI and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
Initially integrating SAP Conversational AI, Skybuffer has been keenly tracking SAP’s strategic AI roadmap. In developing the Skybuffer AI technological environment, our goal has been to ensure our product is compatible with SAP’s cutting-edge AI technologies while offering seamless transition support.
Challenge
Back in 2018, SAP introduced the Conversational AI tool, revolutionizing the way businesses build AI assistants and chatbots. Many innovative companies seized this opportunity, integrating Conversational AI into their business processes and using these chatbots in their B2B, B2E and even B2C scenarios.
However, as SAP’s AI strategy evolved, the decision was made to sunset SAP Conversational AI. Many companies are keen to protect their investments and retain their Conversational AI-based developments. These systems have been meticulously crafted and are being used productively, making it essential to find a balance between adopting new SAP AI technologies and maintaining the value of their existing solutions.
The challenge lies in balancing the transition to new technologies while maintaining the productivity and value of the existing SAP Conversational AI solutions.
