Temu, an e-commerce platform that’s been gathering millions of users since its September 2022 launch, has maintained the top spot as the most downloaded app in the U.S. throughout 2023. The Temu app was recently recognised as an Editor’s Choice on the Google Play app store.

Microsoft announced it has begun migrating its internal SAP systems to S/4HANA under the RISE with SAP umbrella, making SAP responsible for the licensing, technical management, hosting, and support of its SAP applications under a single SLA.
