Hi Rohit, SAP is the world's leading provider of business software which specializes in industry specific Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions. SAP has a functional and a technical side to it. SAP functional requires knowledge of the business processes of a company. The technical side requires knowledge of ABAP/4 or BASIS. There are different SAP modules you may choose to specialize as per your interest. As for your interest, I would say that SAP BI (Business Intelligence) provides tools needed to make the right decisions, optimize and measure the results and merge data from different sources effectively and can be analyzed and monitored using various benchmarks. On the other hand, SAP BW ( data warehousing ) enables Online Analytical Processing to format the information of large amounts of data and helps to secure, extract and perform various actions on the data and analyze the same. It is recommended that you have a few years of work experience before moving into SAP. This will add to your ability to take up SAP as a career. But try to join in a training institute with sound placement records. The courses are quite expensive. Point here is, will you be able to understand and implement concepts and ideas, without formally learning them or without having any experience of them. Your aim would be to seek a relevant job after completing training by paying hefty fees. Please go through the links below. tinyurl.com/3veu2nx For your further reference I have also linked two related questions for you. Please refer to the related questions below. Hope this will help you in the best way. Feel free to raise more queries or you may close the question by liking it or marking it as the best answer. All the best!
