How a US cannabis operator processed events 3x faster with SAP

A large US multi-state cannabis operator (5,000+ employees, US South) replaced slow, fragmented integration with an event-driven architecture around SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud and SAP BTP. A team of 8 delivered 60+ interfaces in 10 months. Event processing became 3x faster and API governance became simpler.

Questions

Why did the company choose an event-driven architecture for SAP integration?

High-volume retail and enterprise transactions required real-time data exchange between SAP and downstream applications. SAP Advanced Event Mesh let systems react to business events as they happen, which reduced latency and allowed the landscape to scale with transaction volume.

Which SAP BTP services were used in the solution?

The solution combined SAP Advanced Event Mesh for event streaming, SAP Cloud Integration for process orchestration, SAP API Management for secure API exposure, and SAP Graph for unified access to business data across systems.

What was the scope and timeline of the project?

A team of 8 delivered more than 60 integration interfaces in 10 months. The work covered the full lifecycle: design, build, testing and deployment, led by a senior SAP BTP architect.
