3 SOPRA STERIA Consulting In total, consultants within the group, help our clients formalize strategies, design and implement large-scale transformation projects in Europe Thanks to our DNA, we are able to deliver end to end transformation, from Strategy to execution with an entrepreneurship spirit inherited from our founders Answering business issues Fast & Collaborative Coverage & Depth Innovative 3

4 Business LAB in a nutshell The business lab is a specific location which concentrate all materials, software, books, and skills to companion our colleges, teams, and customer to all new technologies, and make them able to mix the best of all tracks to provide best solutions for our customers Business makes innovations Based on all technologies as big data, parallel hyper calculation, Artificial Intelligence, Security, Biometry (etc) we explore all possibilities 4

5 Business LAB in a nutshell Big Data Semantic / math-> ElasticSearch + Cuda Standard -> Hadoop/HDFS/Spark/Hbase Cognitive IBM Watson integrator Fuzzy logic, neural, vision, speech Security Intrusion, Network, architecture, signature Crime prediction, intelligence. Robotics Biometry (fingerprint, face, eyes, signatures) Collaboration (speech-to-text, text-to-speech, others ) Virtual Robot and Humanoid Robotic 5

6 Business LAB in a nutshell Our tools : Sopra Steria Lab : SAP HANA EM, SAP ECC, IBM Watson SoftBank robots (a Pepper) ElasticSearch + Kibana + Marvel Nvidia Cuda Microsoft Visual C++ GCC + NVCC Talend C# / Java / Python / R / C++ Spotfire, D3JS MS SharePoint / Liferay RaspBerry Pi x Democrite (C# framework) Kant (Hadoop/Spark) Spinoza (predictive) Machine XS-1 (5120 gpu, 40 cores, 320 Go RAM, 10 To, SSD) Robot Pepper «Lucy Pepper» Etc 6

7 DEMO N 1 IBM Watson Plugin for MS OFFICE DEMO 7

8 DEMO N 1 IBM Watson Plugin for MS OFFICE FEEDBACK Our.net wrapper for IBM Watson is good and stable enough We can integrate Watson on MS SharePoint, MS Outlook, MS Project, TSF, MS BizTalk Every time evaluating an emotion makes sense. We had that 2 difficulties Even if to code a plugin for MS office seams easy on paper it required some work to perform. To deploy our solution, we thought about different way to manage credentials. 8

9 DEMO N 2 IBM Watson SAP Proxy Server Pre-requisites: Watson.net wrapper (coded by the lab) Any version of SAP (from 4.6c up to the last) Objectives: Making Watson usable in ABAP just with a call function + destination Watson is consumed using the NATIVE SAP ALE protocol (CPI/C RFC ALE) Process all free text entries in SAP (SAP PM, SAP HR, SAP PS, etc ) on demand. Technologies: IBM WATSON Local level 2 cache.net and the SAP NCO (ERP Connect) 9

11 DEMO N 3 Democrite and SAP integration Technologies: SAP + IBM Watson + ElasticSearch + Cuda + ( ) Built in.net + C++ Clients for Python, R, and Java are available What is democrite : A framework A collection of plugins and templates for MS Visual Studio A out-of-the-box connectors for IBM Watson, SoftBank robots, etc A middleware dedicated to the human dialog An extensible solution A scalable and distributed solution 40 agents (our roadmap includes around 200 kinds of agent) Connectors : IBM Watson, SAP, BO, Cognos, Luxand, Predictive agent : TES, TED, genetic, SPSS, Datalake aggregation agents Etc 11

12 Conclusion Sentimental analysis could provide some new KPI to SAP (BW BO HR ) AI and Robotics are already compatible with SAP (any versions) SAP HANA is an advantage to deploy this kind of solutions Because of this functional coverage, SAP could become the most AI support of the world : From the Enterprise Management system to an AI of the enterprise Co-design is the key of the success 12
