SAP and Google Cloud enable zero-copy, real-time data sharing between Business Data Cloud and BigQuery.

Today, SAP and Google Cloud are increasing their long-standing data and analytics partnership with the launch of SAP Business Data Cloud Connect for Google BigQuery. This new capability, announced at the SAP Connect event in Las Vegas, simplifies access to mission-critical SAP data products from SAP Business Data Cloud through bidirectional, zero-copy sharing.

By connecting Google BigQuery to the autonomous data to AI platform with agentic capabilities and SAP Business Data Cloud (SAP BDC), SAP and Google aim to help enterprises of all sizes. This connection expands immediate access to trusted, business-ready data for enterprise analytics and AI across their platforms.

For years, enterprise data and analytics have been in separate worlds. Mission-critical business data, rich with semantic context, has been locked in transactional systems. Traditional extract, transform, load (ETL) processes create data replicas that are hard to govern and quickly become stale. This prevents industries from acting on real-time insights and hinders digital transformation.

The SAP and Google partnership ends this compromise. By rejecting data replication and unifying the data landscape, SAP and Google Cloud are authorizing businesses to build intelligent agents, automated workflows, and analytical insights that are directly grounded in live, trusted business data.

The first hyperscaler to adopt SAP BDC Connect, SAP BDC Connect for Google BigQuery enables organizations to unlock the true potential of their data and applications with secure and quick access to SAP's semantically rich and directed data product of scales, without any delays and difficulties of data replication and the need for ETL pipelines. Users can easily combine SAP data with their other business data in BigQuery and conversely update with leading analytics and agentic AI competencies.

CEO of SAP SE, Christian Klein, stated that SAP and Google Cloud have a long history of empowering global enterprises to harness the power of data and AI. Bringing organized Google BigQuery and SAP Business Data Cloud gives their users choice without compromise, enabling users to fast-track their analytics and AI initiatives.
