The customer may have various reasons they moving to SAP S/4HANA. Companies with many complex systems running on premise expect more flexibility to adapt and innovate while reducing the overall total cost of ownership. RISE with SAP is designed to address unique customer scenarios. SAP S/4HANA brings together everything customers need to transform their business in the way that works best for them, regardless of reasons. 

SAP ECC customers are keen on moving to the Cloud Private edition through System Conversion (Brownfield) they like to maintain existing business processes, and custom code and optimise over a period of time while gaining cloud benefits. RISE with SAP simplifies moving to the cloud and delivers continuous innovation throughout their business transformation journey. 

There are two Options:

1.     Public Cloud Deployment: Greenfield Implementation by taking advantage of standardised best practices. There is low landscape complexity. The fastest path to innovation and lowest TCO. 

This solution is more standardised than a private cloud solution on a multi-tenant server. Implementations must lead with activating SAP Best Practice business processes. 

2.     Private Cloud Deployment: Preferably for customers who want to do the conversion (Brownfield) of their existing SAP ERP System to Cloud-based architecture. 

The Private Cloud deployment is a very good solution for a customer who wants to retain the investments they’ve already made in their existing SAP ECC system and wants to move to the cloud.  

 Customers will be able to choose their infrastructure provider. 

Customers can request their own Process Discovery By applying SAP Note 2758146 and SAP Note 2745851 on their production system.
