Sharing what we know
Our blog features articles written by SNOK experts - people who work day to day on projects in SAP, cybersecurity, automation, data and Enterprise AI.
We write about real project experience, analyse technology trends, and share our own perspective on solutions that genuinely affect how organisations operate. We like sharing what we know, because technology isn't just our line of work - it's something we're genuinely curious about.

Weekly Review W33: what comes in the box, and what you build yourself
Nine items from the week of 7-13 August 2026: SAP's August bundle and the note you cannot install, Mistral on SAP's AI platform in a German data centre, the question of incremental value in RISE, a model OpenAI paused, an open-weight model that walked out of its evaluation sandbox, the anatomy of a validation gate, the rebuilt UiPath Community tier, a graph that records decision provenance, and the limits of running a large model on site.
Tech Thursday at SNOK: the MDM market lost its independents. What that changes for buyers
Salesforce acquired Informatica, SAP acquired Reltio. Within six months the two largest independent master data management platforms moved under application platform vendors. Here is the difference between SAP MDG and MDM, and the three questions to ask before you choose.
SAP Patch Day August 2026 - 31 notes and the one question IT never asks
31 items, four rated critical, a headline flaw at CVSS 10.0 - the top of the scale. The audit question is not whether you know about them. It is how long it takes you to go from published note to deployed patch, and what evidence you have.
The code nobody wrote. Securing ABAP in the age of AI assistants
An assistant generates ABAP faster than a human can read it, and pull requests co-authored with AI carry up to 2.74 times more security findings. Here are the seven mechanisms by which that code damages an SAP system, three layers of defence built on SecurityBridge, and an accountability model that answers the real question: who signs the transport.
SecurityBridge earns SAP-certified integration for S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition
The SAP Integration and Certification Center confirmed that SecurityBridge Platform 7 integrates with SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition using standard integration technologies. What it changes in RISE projects, and what it does not cover.
It compiles, so it works. ABAP in the age of the coding assistant
The barrier to writing code inside SAP disappeared faster than the gates that inspect it. On the new crowd of ABAP authors, on why the compiler was never a security test, and on the question that keeps coming back: who signs off on the assistant's work. A column by Jacek Bugajski.
Weekly Review W32: what the tool can do - and what it is allowed to do
Seven items from the week of 31 July - 6 August 2026: the 2026 edition of the OWASP Top 10 for LLM applications moves Excessive Agency up to third place, Red Hat finds that only 31 percent of companies have mature oversight of agentic AI, UiPath shows Maestro Case numbers and Autopilot as a coding agent, Polish retailer Żabka confirms an incident through a vendor account, SAP calls agent sprawl a board-level issue, and agentic browsers still fall to hidden instructions.
Tech Thursday with SNOK: Document Understanding 26.7 - documents enter coded workflows
The new Document Understanding preview closes three architectural gaps at once: document processing becomes callable straight from C# code, the extraction model travels through environments together with the automation, and the pipeline starts in the mailbox and ends with a redacted, compliant document. We explain what this changes.
Lenovo ThinkStation PGX hands-on: we put the NVIDIA GB10 AI workstation through its paces
Before it shipped to a client, a Lenovo ThinkStation PGX spent some time in our lab. 128 GB of unified memory, a 120-billion-parameter model running locally and an AI agent working entirely offline. Here is what is inside and what we learned.
Quo vadis, engineer?
Code got cheap and judgment got expensive. A column by Jacek Bugajski on what is left of the engineer in the age of vibe coding: why our sense of speed lies to us, where the false sense of security of unread code comes from, and five questions to ask before generated code reaches production.
The SAP data breach no SIEM will see
A valid logon, zero alerts, and over a few hours hundreds of thousands of customer records leave SAP. The SIEM will not see it, because it monitors the network and logons - not what a user does inside the application. And the regulator will ask for facts, not suppositions.
Master data in Polish enterprises - the SNOK report
A 28-page SNOK report on master data in Polish companies: consolidation of the MDM market, mandatory e-invoicing as a daily test of customer records, the ERP migration calendar and what actually makes clean-up programmes work. Every figure carries its source.
