Do you expect NetWeaver to emerge as the infrastructure for running third-party applications?
Absolutely. One of the aspects is to see that NetWeaver becomes a platform and multiple business applications from independent software vendors can run on it. There is talk that Netweaver has not clearly attracted market share as such. What’s your take on that? We are not a technology company only. We have always said that we will be investing heavily into NetWeaver because we want a strong technology empowering our applications. That’s why we will go in for Netweaver as a combined stack of open architecture and platform. It’s not technology only. But if we do the technology work for the needs of the applications, then our applications portfolio will be stronger than anybody else and then the same strengths can be used by the partners to add to the solutions. So, that’s the solutions strategy. Broadly speaking, what will be your strategy to retain and grow your market share? NetWeaver is now with the mySAP 2005 underlying the SAP business suite. Wherever there is SAP, wherever customer
