Your SAP Data Is Already Real-Time — You Just Need to Stop Caching It

Picture a forecasting team at an industrial-controls Mittelstand. Their job for the next quarter: launch an AI-driven inventory and demand-forecasting tool that the operations team will actually trust enough to act on. They have the model. They have the GPUs. They cannot ship.

The reason: their nightly ETL job runs at 02:00 and finishes around 04:00, by which point the model trains on data that's already half a day old. By the time the forecast reaches the procurement system at 08:00, it's reasoning about a world that existed fourteen hours ago. When the CFO asks why the model recommended ordering more of an item that just sold out at lunchtime, nobody has a good answer — because the data the model saw never knew the lunchtime existed.

The fix isn't a better ETL. The fix is removing the ETL.

ERPL Speaks More Than SAP Now

ERPL started as a DuckDB extension for SAP. That's still its center of gravity. But over the past few months it grew arms — into Microsoft 365, into Microsoft Dynamics 365, into the rest of the modern enterprise data surface.

Today's update to erpl.io makes that official. The landing page now reflects what ERPL has quietly become: a SQL gateway to your whole enterprise stack.

Your AI Coding Agent Just Learned ABAP

We built erpl-adt because we got tired of Eclipse being the only way to interact with ABAP systems programmatically. If you wanted to search objects, read source code, or run unit tests against SAP — you had to use Eclipse ADT. No CLI, no scriptable API client, nothing you could plug into a CI pipeline or hand to an AI agent.

So we built one. A single binary that speaks the ADT REST API, works from the command line, and doubles as an MCP server for AI coding agents.
