Conquer mountains of datawith SAP's cloud solutions

Are you ready for the cloud?

The implementation of a cloud solution offers different challenges than a classic ERP implementation. Process architects are the drivers on the way to the intelligent enterprise and look beyond the boundaries of individual systems. Digital transformation requires flexible IT infrastructures. Without connections to the cloud or to hybrid cloud models, it will no longer be possible to react flexibly to new requirements and launch innovations in the future. Business models that are built on the collection and processing of huge amounts of data from a wide variety of sources are unthinkable without the cloud.

SAP CLOUD

Questions you have probably already asked yourself

Aren't individuality and flexibility lost with standardised cloud applications?

On the contrary - your employees and colleagues will love the cloud. A local installation of the SAP programmes on the end devices is no longer necessary. The required applications can be accessed from any device - be it a PC, laptop, tablet or smartphone - via an internet connection. The data is constantly synchronised and kept up to date. This makes it possible to work independently of location and time, enables greater flexibility and thus accelerates your business success.

What are the costs in the cloud compared to on-premise systems?

While the installation of local systems incurs high initial costs and the operation and maintenance incur varying levels of ongoing expenditure, you pay a monthly rent for the use of the cloud, the amount of which depends on the scope of the services used. This keeps the costs of the cloud solution predictable and calculable for you. Over time, the total costs are even lower than for SAP systems that are operated on your premises.

How secure is the cloud?

You retain control over your company data. However, the cloud operator, in this case SAP, takes care of system availability, data security, updates and backups. This allows you to concentrate fully on your business success. In the SAP Cloud Trust Center, SAP provides detailed information about all security precautions, which are at a very high level.

How can individual requirements of our company be implemented with cloud products?

SAP provides a broad portfolio of cloud products that can be used according to your individual requirements. For a successful and flexible implementation, it should be noted that processes should be abstracted and considered architecturally: An open API infrastructure instead of the ABAP report. The Business Technology Platform offers extensive AI-supported methods and technologies from the cloud, such as blockchain and robotics.

How does the introduction of a cloud solution differ from a classic introduction project?

The implementation of a cloud solution is faster than usual for large ERP implementation projects, but requires openness to change. The basis for success is the willingness to cut back old habits and to question the tried and tested. It is advisable to involve employees in the processes at an early stage and to hand over responsibility.

The RISE with SAP offer can be customised for companies. Depending on requirements and current state, the path to the intelligent enterprise in the cloud is shaped.

SAP Business Technology Platform

The SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) is part of RISE with SAP. The platform provides a comprehensive portfolio of cloud products and services. Previously, the Business Technology Platform was called SAP Cloud Platform.

SAP Cloud Platform

The SAP Cloud Platform (SCP) is a useful addition to the ERP solutions ECC and S/4HANA. The various services and cloud services from SAP are gathered under its umbrella. The SCP is offered as a so-called Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS). Company-specific applications and mobile apps can be developed individually and flexibly on it and integrated into the existing SAP landscape. Development times are thus shortened and you can react quickly and agilely to the latest requirements that the market places on your ERP system. In addition, the SAP Cloud Platform acts as the basis for your networked IT landscape and enables the integration of cloud-based future technologies such as Big Data, IoT or AI. Older SAP on-premise systems can also be modernised with the help of the SAP Cloud Platform

The open standards of the SAP Cloud Platform are great. For us programmers, it offers a wide range of development tools that allow us to deliver innovative applications and services quickly and agilely to our enterprise customers.
