Apps Purchases: 10+ Million Software Purchases
Founded in 2010, APPS RUN THE WORLD is a leading technology intelligence and market-research company devoted to the application space. Leveraging a rigorous data-centric research methodology, we ask the simple B2B sales intelligence question: Who’s buying enterprise applications from whom and why?
Our global team of 50 researchers has been studying the digital transformation initiatives being undertaken by 2 million + companies including technographic segmentation of 10 million ERP, EPM, CRM, HCM, Procurement, SCM, Treasury software purchases, aggregating massive amounts of data points that form the basis of our forecast assumptions and perhaps the rise and fall of certain vendors and their products on a quarterly basis.
Apps Run The World Buyer Insight and Technographics Customer Database has over 100 data fields that detail company usage of emerging technologies such as AI, Machine Learning, IoT, Blockchain, Autonomous Database, and different on-prem and cloud apps by function, customer size (employees, revenues), industry, country, implementation status, year deal won, partner involvement, Line of Business Key Stakeholders and key decision-makers contact details, including the systems being used by Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies.

C&A Europe | Retail | 42000 | $10.0B | Germany | SAP | SAP Retail | Retail Management | 2011 | SVA System Vertrieb Alexander | In 2011 C&A Europe deployed SAP Retail as part of a Retail Management program on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server on IBM z Systems, consolidating mission-critical SAP business applications onto a single high-availability platform. The SAP Retail deployment centralized SAP Business Warehouse and core ERP components to support sales, financial and reporting processes across the company’s Germany and Belgium operations. The implementation configured SAP Retail to deliver standard retail capabilities including merchandising orchestration, point-of-sale transaction support, inventory and catalogue workflows, and analytical feed paths into SAP Business Warehouse, aligning application configuration with omnichannel sales and store operations. Architecturally the solution co-located SAP Retail workloads on SLES on z Systems with IBM DB2 for z/OS, leveraging mainframe HiperSockets for low-latency data exchange between application and database tiers, and running central backup and recovery on IBM Spectrum Protect on the same Linux on z platform. The program integrated web analytics and development tooling into the platform stack, operating Piwik for e-store analytics and open source version control systems for in-house development teams, while Nagios-based monitoring was maintained and reallocated across hardware as part of operational optimization. SVA System Vertrieb Alexander GmbH supported the rollout alongside SUSE, with governance focused on platform consolidation, operational runbooks and backup continuity to reduce failure windows. Outcomes documented by the project include improved application performance for data-intensive workflows, higher levels of availability for retail operations, accelerated business analytics, and increased staff productivity driven by tighter integration between SAP Retail and supporting systems. | |
