Core systems with the right care
SAP systems are important components in your company. The volume of relevant data for enterprises is growing exponentially and is projected to reach 158 zettabyte (ZB) by 2025.
Rising system costs, declining system performance, and lack of agility to stay competitive in a cloud-based world are one of the common challenges that our customers running SAP applications have to face.
Chose right infrastructure for the job
With Microsoft Azure, you are able to reliably run your mission-critical SAP workloads and scenarios on a scalable, compliant, and enterprise-proven platform.
Microsoft and SAP are partnering on technology for more than 20+ years. Cooperation is so advanced that both companies decided to use SAP on Azure to run every of their own internal operations. That means something.
Now you can benefit from this expanded partnership, run your SAP applications across dev/test and production scenarios in Azure – and be fully supported. SAP has certified a full list of products on the Azure cloud with more certifications coming all the time. From SAP NetWeaver to SAP S4/HANA, SAP BI, Linux to Windows, SAP HANA to SQL – Microsoft have it all.
Azure public offerings for SAP solutions include both on-demand Virtual Machines with pay per use pricing and purpose build HANA large instances to meet your specific SAP workload needs with virtually unlimited growth.
