Access to large language models has transformed how our team invokes APIs and creates reports
I may not be the right person to provide this insight or recommendation. I am not really following the progress in it. Some new features may have been implemented and I am not aware of it. I would have to go back to Amazon Bedrock for that information. Working on agentic tools and providing more capability on agentic AI is what was missing at the last time I explored Amazon Bedrock. As I recall now, I found some limitations or some models are not present in Amazon Bedrock sometimes while they are present in other platforms. There are new models that are coming, and sometimes I cannot find them in Amazon Bedrock. The limitation of region sometimes also caused some problems. Some models are found in regions and not in others, and the customers or the clients do not want the model to be hosted in a region different than their own. These are some limitations that we encounter sometimes while working on a product for a specific customer.

I cannot say anything about what areas of SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud could be improved or enhanced because so far, we are happy with this implementation. We are not facing any problem, or I cannot say that this can be improved. Although SAP keeps improving themselves day by day, we cannot say that SAP needs to improve anything. One thing which we face, not as a problem, is the pricing. SAP pricing is a bit higher day by day. Before, it was not too much higher, but I don't know why they are increasing their price. They should see this thing, so other customers, such as SMBs customers or small and mid-sized customers, can also avail this thing. Otherwise, we don't have any problem. First, there is the limitation. If you are a SAP user, you don't feel any problem with the limitation because if you know how to use the product, you can easily implement this thing. Otherwise, if you don't know the business process or how to integrate and implement, it could be a problem. We have a limitation, but we developed some add-ons for this. So we fulfilled these requirements.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Amazon Bedrock enabled the use of huge models and the democratization of their use at comparatively low cost, if we host these models in the company."
"Amazon Bedrock's main value lies in its LLM capabilities; these are not generally things you can host easily on SageMaker, and you have to build up custom environments, particularly if you want access to the proprietary models."
"The most beneficial aspect of Bedrock is its pool of models to choose from, catering to specific needs."
"It is the best solution in this category and is rated a nine out of ten."
"It was absolutely useful and we found that we are getting 90 to 95% plus success rate while extracting the data from unstructured documents."
"The integration with pre-trained AI models has been very beneficial, allowing me to quickly access powerful machine learning models without the need to build them from scratch."
"Amazon Bedrock is easy to use and practical, allowing for quick development."
"The most valuable features of Amazon Bedrock include scalability, ease of access, having 20 to 25 plus pre-trained models, and scaling capabilities."
"In SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, HANA has the best performance for hosting the data warehouse and analytics solution mainly, and this is the good feature in it."
"The solution is stable and we have never had a problem. We started with one terabyte of data when the solution was first implemented and today we have around almost 600 gigabytes of data, which means means the compression works properly. Before migrating from ECC, we had nine terabytes of data."
"This is a product that I recommend for others."
"We have a wide range of use cases for SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud. These include production planning, materials management, sales management, treasury, finance, appliance maintenance, real estate, and warehouse management."
"What I like the most is that we can convert databases into a proper multi-dimensional model, and then we can project with the integration with Power BI."
"The solution is online and provides a real-time information feature, which makes a huge difference to the business, especially in reviews and meetings."
"The most valuable feature is virtual modeling, which is beneficial because you don't really save the data multiple times the way we did in the past."
"The solution does provide quite a lot of support, upgrades, automated batch updates, etc."
 

Cons

"I would appreciate a greater focus on agentic Gen AI applications in Bedrock."
"It would be beneficial if Amazon Bedrock could provide multiple responses to a query, allowing users to choose the best option."
"However, their product is not as mature as Snowflake or Databricks."
"As I recall now, I found some limitations or some models are not present in Amazon Bedrock sometimes while they are present in other platforms."
"The user interface of Amazon Bedrock on the management console needs improvements. It's very bland at the moment."
"The initial setup of Amazon Bedrock is somewhat complex as it requires integration with two to three services."
"Amazon native models could proliferate Bedrock in the future. We would welcome Amazon native models to Bedrock since, if they are natively built by Amazon, they are tuned to SageMaker and other Amazon service layers."
"The advantage of Bedrock is not as an amazing enabler of AI platforms, yet we utilize it to deploy application services and microservices within Bedrock ecosystem and leverage prequalified foundation models like Claude and others."
"The cost could be improved. I think it's higher than the competition."
"Customization is an area of concern in SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, where improvements are required."
"The stability needs to be improved to be able to handle large amounts of data."
"The product must provide more details of the errors."
"It needs improvement in terms of stability and performance."
"The solution is scalable from an infrastructure point of view. However, it becomes more complex over time because technology is changing so fast."
"The customer has a lot of dependencies on SAP which means they don't have much flexibility to go and update the system when or if they need to. They will need to wait for the quarterly updates. It's possible to maybe raise a special request with SAP if it is absolutely necessary."
"The solution needs to embed or integrate with IBP to fully activate the PPT module with efficiency."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost of using Amazon Bedrock is quite high, as I incurred unexpected charges amounting to $130 USD within two weeks without actually deploying the model."
"One customer paid around $100 to $200 per month, which was significant given their overall infrastructure costs."
"The price is expensive compared to the competition."
"If you choose the minimum, it will probably cost around $1,000 USD per month if you take a contract for a year or two."
"The price is high compared to other databases, which is why HANA is still not widely used. Some enterprises prefer Sybase, Oracle, or other traditional databases because HANA is a little pricey. Cost is one factor SAP needs to work on to make it more competitive with other databases. Otherwise, they'll never be able to develop a mass customer base."
"The solution's cost is reasonable."
"It's very, very expensive."
"I rate the product's price a five out of ten."
"The product itself is relatively expensive."
"The licensing of the solution is on a yearly basis. The normal price of the solution is quite high, but I received a special discount by making a purchase near the end of the year."
