Get ready for the next generation of intelligent
data applications
The question is, how do you make the move to
SAP HANA Cloud quickly and with minimal risk?
To help your business get where it needs to go,
SAP and its partners offer a range of options for
services, support, tools, and assets that can put
you on the fast track to database modernization.
The goal is to speed your time to value for every-
thing that SAP HANA Cloud has to offer. This
includes a modernized database in the cloud
that orchestrates mission-critical applications
and analytics in a single solution.
SAP HANA Cloud also helps you maintain a clean
core with side-by-side extensibility and multi-
model processing. This means you can run
custom AI-based applications separately from
SAP S/4HANA and other foundational business
applications. The result is better performance
and easier upgrades.
Some of the migration offerings detailed here can
be accessed on a self-service basis. Some are
free services, others come as part of our premium
engagement offerings. The offerings are provided
by SAP or its partners based on various models
depending on the scope and complexity of your
project.
As an SAP customer, you can take advantage of
these offerings in any combination you see fit.
Here at SAP, we remain agnostic on the path you
choose to move forward. Our mission is to simply
help you move quickly toward a modernized
database in the cloud that will future-proof your
strategic growth with a foundation for innovation.
Businesses deploying next-generation intelligent data applications at scale are
leading the way in today’s data-driven economy. But how do you keep pace when
you’re still running your database technology on premises? The time is now to
move from SAP HANA to SAP HANA Cloud, a multi-model database-as-a-service
that empowers your business to scale at will and innovate without obstacles.
Make the move to SAP HANA
Cloud quickly and with less risk.

Migration services and support
SAP Migration Factory for SAP BTP
The SAP Migration Factory for SAP BTP program
provides high-touch concierge-style consulting
services and expert migration support to assist
you as your organization makes the move to SAP
HANA Cloud. The program includes assessments,
automation tools, accelerators, and industry best
practices from SAP and our partners. The goal
of this program is to streamline the complete
migration journey—from initial planning to
go-live—to achieve a faster path to productivity
and adoption.
Free migration assessment
Through the SAP Migration Factory program, you
can apply for a free assessment and plan to help
you make the move to SAP HANA Cloud. With this
offering—also available for other SAP solutions
such as the SAP Business Warehouse application
and SAP Integration Suite—we assess your data-
base landscape and develop an inventory of
objects to be migrated. The result is a migration
plan that offers guidance on architecture, design,
scope, sizing, and education with details on time-
lines and effort.
To execute the assessment, SAP leverages our
product experts and technical resources as well
as trained partners. Throughout the assessment,
we work in close collaboration with you and your
team while also consulting with other internal
SAP teams to optimize project outcomes.
Typically, engagements last two to three weeks,
with services delivered remotely.
We start the project with a simple questionnaire
to gather basic information about your environ-
ment. This is followed by a project kickoff call to
explain the program and review the information
provided.
Next, we run an automated assessment tool
with support from your migration factory lead.
This tool extracts critical information about your
legacy landscape and generates a report that
estimates project complexity and effort. Based
on the information gathered, your migration is
categorized on a T-shirt sizing model (small,
medium, or large) to guide planning and
preparation.
Following these initial steps, your migration
factory lead facilitates calls to dive deeper
into the initial assessment information, modify
technical assumptions, and identify risks and
opportunities. Between calls, your migration
factory lead fine-tunes your assessment based
on individual needs. The end result is a high-
level migration plan based on an assessment
of the time and effort required to migrate to
SAP HANA Cloud. The migration plan and
assessment are based on the unique circum-
stances of your environment and are delivered
free of charge.
The engagement is concluded with a final one-
hour presentation to review the migration plan.
With you and your SAP account team, we discuss
benefits, limitations, and risks. Based on this free
insight, you can then do the migration on your
own, with us, or with an SAP partner. We can
also help you make decisions and engage with
resources if needed. In the end, you get a quick
migration assessment and plan to prepare
your move to the next generation of database
technology in the cloud.

Migrate to SAP HANA Cloud with help from SAP and partnersMigration execution
Migration execution is a paid service with SAP
Migration Factory, delivered by a team of profes-
sional SAP experts as well as SAP-managed
contractor resources and partners. Working
remotely, our team will access your SAP HANA
instances across various environments including
development, QA, pre-production, and pro-
duction. Project timelines typically span six to
16 weeks or potentially longer, depending on the
complexity and size of your data and applications.
The engagement kicks off with ramp-up activities
designed to get you fully operational on SAP HANA
Cloud. Next, a testing and validation phase helps
to ensure a smooth transition with minimal dis-
ruption to your operations. The physical migration
happens during the implementation phase.
Targeted items include your database and data,
cloud applications, and data integration interfaces.
Throughout, our team works closely with your
internal experts, using their input to tailor the migra-
tion to your unique needs. With our teams working
together, we can more effectively build a platform
for knowledge transfer that empowers your team
moving forward. You’ll gain a thorough under-
standing of your new cloud environment, including
best practices and advanced functionalities. This
puts you in a better position to get the most out
of SAP HANA Cloud and maximize your ROI.
Premium engagements services
If you participate in the SAP MaxAttention or
SAP ActiveAttention programs offered through
SAP Services and Support, you have at your
disposal the services, support, and expertise
you need to plan and execute your move to SAP
HANA Cloud. The services offered through these
programs are comprehensive and personalized
to your specific needs.
With a dedicated technical quality manager (TQM)
leading the way throughout the project, we help
you build a migration plan, put it into action,
and go live with SAP HANA Cloud—all on your
schedule and according to your priorities. We
also provide post-implementation health checks
to make sure you’re continuing to run to your
satisfaction after go-live.
Each step of the process is designed to help
you lower migration risks and costs. Automated
testing and migration tools help accelerate the
timeline. And we’re flexible too. We’ll support
do-it-yourself, SAP-led, or partner-led migration
projects as you wish.
To find out more about how you can use your
premium engagements program to migrate to
SAP HANA Cloud, ask your TQM or visit us online.
