Modernizing SAP: Strategic Guidance for the Manufacturing Industry 

 

Manufacturing organizations leveraging SAP face critical decisions about their SAP roadmap, including S/4 upgrades, cloud migrations, end-of-life SAP versions, and evolving SAP-native tooling. Whether you're running SAP in a private cloud or already leveraging AWS, Protera has proven strategies and services to help you achieve your SAP modernization goals.
 
In this Lunch & Learn event, we'll explore proven methods to move SAP workloads to AWS, whether your goal is to modernize ECC or fully embrace SAP ERP Private Cloud Edition (formerly RISE with SAP).
 
This event is designed for IT leaders in the Manufacturing industry.
 
Key takeaways:

 

  • Understand the different modernization paths for SAP on AWS
  • Learn how to transition from private cloud to a modern AWS environment
  • Discover how to fast-track your move to SAP ERP Private Cloud Edition when you're already on AWS
  • Practical use cases for implementing AI into your migration and ongoing cloud management strategy 
  • Tackle the "what do I do with my non-SAP workloads" challenge
  • See how Protera and AWS enable end-to-end transformation aligned with SAP’s roadmap

Attendees will hear from experts at SAP, Protera and AWS on modernizing their cloud journey, have lunch, receive some cool swag, and enjoy an exclusive tour of Michigan Central Station's $1B+ renovation.
