Accelerating SAP application migration for supply-chain efficiency

Advanced materials manufacturer attains improvements in both app performance and plant worker experience.

A leading advanced materials and semiconductor solutions supplier runs factories, laboratories, and administrative offices in 10 countries across three continents. Its employees rely heavily on SAP software to manage the supply chain, from sourcing raw materials to billing clients.

With its SAP suite hosted on its long-time cloud provider, the company was facing a two-times rise in hosting fees. To avoid the unsustainably high-cost increase, the company needed to migrate to a more affordable hyperscaler cloud in just four months.

Migration also offered an opportunity to improve performance and availability and strengthen its security posture, while preparing for a future upgrade to the SAP S/4HANA suite.

This case study presents the technical challenges this manufacturer was facing, as well as its path to resolution and the dramatic progress the business has achieved.
