The SAP HANA Cloud Platform harnesses the power of the IoT to allow the cubeXX to run interactively. According to SAP’s Vice President of M2M and IoT Engineering, Uwe Kubach, the HANA Cloud Platform enables the processing of large data volumes, which are generated by the cubeXX’s various sensors and equipment on an ongoing basis.

HANA allows STILL to connect each forklift’s scanning and processing technology to a customers’ enterprise resource planning (ERP) and warehouse management system. In this way, SAP taps into the IoT to help STILL coordinate vehicle data in the cloud in order to track and interrelate information that ranges from records of operating hours to detailed equipment diagnoses.

Uwe Kubach points to STILL and its cubeXX as examples of how SAP partners can take advantage of IoT technology in two ways. “First of all,” he says, “there is the optimization of existing business processes such as maintenance. Secondly, a forklift will no longer be sold as a discreet product, but as a service that is invoiced according to the weight of goods transported."
