SAP on Azure 4-Week POC

FyrSoft LLC

A PoC reduces risks and increases confidence levels of organizations to move their SAP landscape to Microsoft Azure. For the migration POC, we will be migrating an existing SAP system to Azure.

This POC will be educating organizations on migration strategies, system sizing and system performance on Azure. During the pilot program, we will be provisioning infrastructure on Azure and we will be migrating the SAP system (Preferred: Sandbox) identified by the organization.

Goal of the POC:

  1. Migrating the Sandbox to Azure Cloud.
  2. Seamless migration from on-premise to Azure cloud.
  3. Migration plan for the organization’s SAP Landscape.
  4. Key Performance Indicators
  5. Technical testing.

This Proof of Concept will also help organizations understand and evaluate high-availability and disaster recovery options; the stability and reliability factors of Azure will also be validated.
