"The growth and scalability of our business required a more flexible, innovative infrastructure.

The time was right to migrate our enterprise workloads to AWS with Protera." 

– Steve Swokowski, CIO

Focused on providing access to the world’s top athletic equipment and merchandise, Sports Endeavors is an essential company to the youth sports market in America. As Sports Endeavors looked to help influence the expansion of participation in youth athletics and scale the business to accommodate, IT leadership sought to migrate their enterprise workloads out of a private cloud environment managed by longtime partner Protera to AWS.

After 11 years as a Protera client running fully managed systems in a private data center, the company's SAP ECC, CRM, and surrounding workloads were migrated to AWS in just 4 months.

"The growth and scalability of our business required a more flexible, innovative infrastructure," says Steve Swokowski, CIO of Sports Endeavors. "The time was right to migrate our enterprise workloads to AWS with Protera."

Now live on AWS with Protera managing the modern cloud environment as well as ongoing SAP Basis support, the Sports Endeavors team can shift focus to initiatives that add value operationally and match the innovative spirit of the brand.
