We will manage the post-migration process, not just the technical aspects of your migration to the cloud. Also, the functional and crucial interfacing considerations of the migration process will be managed by us, to ensure stability on your SAP application in the new cloud environment.
Our migrations are first-rate because we are one of the few partners that properly combine the technical know-how of SAP and Microsoft Azure to manage the full migration of SAP systems and interfaces.

Microsoft and SAP have a long partnership history of over 20 years. More importantly, with partnership initiatives like the integration of Microsoft Teams with S/4 Hana, and Project embrace, both companies are beginning to closeup their platforms to work seamlessly and offer customers greater deals. 

Partnership projects like Embrace are allowing customers to enjoy opportunities like:
  • A simplified path from on-premise editions of SAP ERP to SAP S/4HANA under the Microsoft/SAP-endorsed cloud partnership. SAP and Microsoft will continue to co-innovate around SAP S/4HANA on Azure. Thus, opening up great benefits to customers.
  • Expanded joint engagements with customers and partners. This allows Microsoft/SAP and SI partners to jointly provide digital enterprise roadmaps for customers. This includes immediate and actionable reference architectures and technical guidance to help customers on their journey to the cloud.
  • Increased investments in platform and infrastructure. Both companies will further develop automated migrations, improved operations, monitoring, and security to support customer needs.
Integration

Integration capabilities on Microsoft Azure offers considerable number of services for data storage and IoT. Microsoft and SAP’s strong partnership is evident from an integration perspective, allowing customers to consume SAP integration services on Azure seamlessly.

Infrastructure Performance & Scalability

SAP on Azure workload performance is impressive. Microsoft Azure’s huge compute resources works effectively with SAP’s inmemory Hana Database, giving the much-desired performance output for S/4 Hana. Similarly, the ECC6 system enjoys better performance on Azure considering the resource requirements for SAP BW and SAP application. Scaling of resources is achieved with maximum efficiency that improves business continuityreadiness of customers.

We imagine our role with customers as that of an electronic car suspension. We listen and identify load variations, absorb load pressure, and provide the required power to balance the weight of the car at different points in the suspension assembly, giving the passenger a comfortable ride through the journey. Our customers (Passengers) need not worry as we shoulder the load effectively and get them to their destination safely.
