How SAP Community Uses Gatsby & Contentstack to Boost Page Speed and Content Velocity

SAP is a leading enterprise application software that manages business workflows for many large companies globally. With over 100,000 employees and a community of tens of thousands of SAP developers, the company has an active online presence through its SAP Community website. This platform serves as a combined version of StackOverflow, Quora, and LinkedIn for the SAP world, where developers and customers can share questions, problems, blog posts, and collaborate on projects. The SAP Community team recently migrated their community hub to Gatsby and Contentstack, which has been successful in improving content velocity, community satisfaction, page performance, SEO ranking, and feature velocity. The use of modern tools like Figma for design concepts and layouts, Storybook for building components, and WordPress for the blog network have also contributed to this success. The migration has led to a higher frequency of content updates by writers, improved site perception in semi-annual user surveys, better page performance and SEO ranking, and increased feature velocity with advanced content filtering, multi-language support, and live stream aggregation. The adoption of Gatsby and Contentstack has proven beneficial for the SAP Community team and its users, demonstrating the potential benefits of using these tools within larger organizations.
