End of support for ECC seems to consume the oxygen in the room lately, but a less covered topic might be more critical and have a larger near term impact on large enterprises planning or in flight with S/4 migration projects. This event is potentially more disruptive than the end of support for ECC, directly impacting the ability of customers to continue IT operations for SAP.

At Avantra, we believe in empowering our customers to make the most of their digital transformation journey. In line with our commitment to provide you with the tools and knowledge you need to succeed, we are excited to announce not one, but two exclusive 4 day automation training sessions in 2024! Frankfurt, Germany - January 15th to 18th, 2024 USA - middle of the year (Specific dates to be announced)

RISE is one of the hottest topics around SAP. It's almost difficult to read or discuss SAP without the topic present. But with any topic as complex as SAP, the question of where to run SAP and ultimately RISE as an option isn't without opportunity for questions. This blog tries to clear up some of the most common questions, especially for companies considering RISE coming from an existing expertise of either operating SAP themselves or having experience with SaaS solutions and cloud services.

Migration refers to the act of transferring a database from one platform to another. Similarly, SAP S/4HANA migration refers to the switch between an existing SAP or non-SAP ERP platform to the latest ERP platform offered by SAP, namely SAP S/4 HANA. Today, no matter the type of your ecosystem, you can easily switch from a non-SAP ecosystem to the latest SAP S/4HANA platform, thanks to the multiple schemes offered by the developer.

SAP S/4HANA is one of the most innovative ERP solutions in the software industry due to its real time insight delivery and high efficiency. As an in memory data platform, SAP S/4HANA simplifies administration and management in the IT space. It allows users to centralize the network resources and hardware to have easier accessibility. SAP S/4HANA facilitates bringing multiple systems' transactional and analytical abilities into one place, leading to better decision making, which can be cost effective in the long run. Users can also generate reports and execute decisions based on real time data.
