Startup Kinvey Launches Service For Connecting SAP Data To Mobile Apps

SAP generated some headlines with a wave of announcements at its humongous Sapphire show this week. But startup Kinvey attracted a lot of attention when it launched a service that SAP software customers can use to more easily connect mobile applications to their ERP data.

The Mobile Data Connect for SAP service removes the need for businesses to migrate data to SAP's HANA data management system before connecting it to a mobile application, according to Boston-based Kinvey.

Kinvey worked with channel partners such as Denver-based Venado Technologies in launching the service.
