Yesterday, IBM announced Alloy by IBM and SAP.
Business users need seamless access to people, processes, and information to improve their productivity. With Alloy by IBM and SAP, business users can easily access SAP business processes and information within their familiar IBM LotusĀ® environment. The integration provided by Alloy allows business users with access to enterprise information, yet keeps them compliant with their company's policies.
Since business users remain in their familiar Notes environment, there is a low learning curve, which can help speed adoption. As a result, business users can be more productive with improved decision making, and increased compliance with corporate policies.
Alloy ensures rapid deployment without extensive customization to support key business processes yet provides extensibility to support your unique environment.
Here's a picture from the reports demo I saw. The cool thing is that the SAP functionality is right inside the Notes client in a very natural and immediate way. For developers, you can get into the code and customize it to your heart's content.
