SAP S/4HANA Transition: What’s the Rush?

Posted on November 2, 2022 by - Cloud Migration, Enterprise Integration Solutions, IT, SAP

It’s been two years since SAP announced it would sunset support for its on-premise ERP. There are five years until the current deadline. In business terms, five years seems like a comfortable window for change – in the technology world, five years is practically an eternity. With what seems like all the time in the world to migrate, is starting your SAP S/4HANA transition really that urgent?

The short answer: Yes.

The longer answer: Seriously, what are you waiting for? There are several reasons not to put off an SAP S/4HANA migration, no matter how daunting it may seem.

Other Systems Depend on It

Any unanticipated shift to a new technological system is a challenge. But your ERP isn’t just any old system. It’s a core system with many dependencies. You’ll need to examine the relationship between SAP and each solution or tool it interacts with before you can make the move. 

Data migration is a crucial factor to consider when evaluating your SAP S/4HANA integration options. Overlooking a dependency before your migration begins can result in data loss and significant disruptions to your operations. Starting your S/4HANA transition now ensures you have as much time as possible to examine and address dependencies in your system.

Sometimes Things Go Wrong

Your SAP modernization efforts may well be your organization’s first real foray into the world of cloud, and preparing for the worst (while hoping for the best) is the smart move. 

Even if your company has already embraced cloud-based solutions for other aspects of your business, it’s never wise to assume that everything will go exactly as planned. Something as simple as a lack of stakeholder alignment on the goals and priorities for your SAP S/4HANA transition can derail the entire process. The responsible move is to begin planning for the shift while the old system is still there as a reliable backup.

S/4HANA Migration has Benefits

It’s easy to think that your SAP S/4HANA transition is a massive evil task you’re being forced to undertake against your will. But migration can serve as a catalyst for your digital transformation journey and transform your ERP into a more strategic partner for other lines of business. 

It can:

  • Unlock potential for cost savings
  • Reduce technical debt
  • Improve efficiency
  • Empower your team to innovate

Do you really want to delay that?

Simplify Your SAP S/4HANA Transition

Recognizing the benefits of moving forward now with your SAP S/4HANA migration doesn’t mean that all the challenges associated with doing so will simply vanish into thin air. Still, there are ways to simplify the process.

1. Learn from those who’ve already made the move

  • You’re developing a strategy for SAP modernization; you’re not reinventing the wheel. S/4HANA didn’t just appear when SAP announced its 2027 ECC sunset date. Plenty of companies – some with more complicated dependencies or niche legacy systems than you – have already made the transition. Learn from their experiences, mistakes, and successes as you develop your SAP S/4HANA roadmap.

2. Take time to inventory and understand your environment

  • One of the major arguments for mapping your journey to SAP S/4HANA now is that you’ll have more time to get things right. Every single system touching your on-premises ERP may also need modernization. Invest time in documenting systems and their dependencies, and carefully determine:
    • What should be modernized as part of your migration
    • What you can “lift and shift” for modernization in the future
    • What can be eliminated or streamlined for greater efficiency

3. Find or build an SAP S/4HANA roadmap

  • Digital transformation isn’t a destination – it’s a journey. And there are plenty of guides available to help make the transition more manageable and less disruptive if you’re ready to ask for help.
  • Find an existing framework or process with a proven record of success that will serve as a roadmap for your SAP S/4HANA transition, or partner with a vendor that has already completed the journey before and knows what to watch out for.

Financial Services: What are the Top Cloud Migration Challenges You Must Overcome?

Posted on October 28, 2022 by - Cloud Migration, IT

Shifting from on-premises to a cloud environment delivers significant efficiencies for your financial services organization, allowing you to tap into important innovations and improvements such as automation, process support, stronger security, and the elimination of aging datacenters.

Yet, according to a recent McKinsey survey, cloud adoption in the financial services sector remains at a very early stage, with only 13% of organizations having half or more of their IT footprint in the cloud.

Fortunately, the industry isn’t letting the grass grow under its feet, with 54% of respondents expecting to shift at least half their workloads to the public cloud over the next five years.

But getting to the cloud isn’t always easy. This article will help you mitigate–and even avoid–many of the challenges your financial services organization may encounter, ensuring a smooth transition with minimal disruptions to the business.

>> Book a personalized demo with our team of experts and see how Digibee’s iPaaS will bring efficiency to your business. 

1. Performance

Cloud environment performance is key to maintaining continuity and minimizing disruptions such as IT downtime that impact the business. Cloud performance issues are often due to availability, network latency, or application processing delays.

How to do it right

Before your migration process begins, it’s essential to:

  • Identify which applications are best suited to cloud migration
  • Understand application dependencies
  • Make a plan for what you will migrate and when
  • Become familiar with cloud integration platforms as they will allow for ideal performance

Make migration decisions based on data flows or business domains – not on which systems provide or receive data. Select technology that delivers the flexibility to migrate what needs migrating and keep other systems in place.

Decoupling data streams in completely isolated containers allows for both vertical and horizontal tuning. This model lets you optimize traffic between points, removing the performance constraints typically associated with cloud migration and putting the focus of analysis on endpoint capacity.

2. Cost Management

Cloud costs are climbing rapidly for many financial services organizations, with banks estimated to waste as much as 35% of cloud spending on inefficient activities. It’s vital to carefully manage costs, factoring in the duration and complexity of your transition to ensure a solid return on your investment.

How to do it right

There are a few ways to control the price of a shift to the cloud:

  • Establish a cost management checklist to follow whenever you deploy new services
  • Base all organizational cloud usage on your company’s financial policies
  • Budget specific amounts for different projects, departments, or categories and review regularly to ensure you’re on track
  • Utilize cost reporting tools from vendors or third parties to ensure consistency

A platform-as-a-service model eliminates the need for upfront infrastructure investments and allows costs to be adjusted to match project scope without compromising the agility or scalability of your solution. 

And while traditional cloud vendor tools focus solely on the transition, a cloud-based enterprise integration platform-as-a-service (iPaaS) can simplify your cloud migration process while also laying the groundwork for architecture modernization to support future efficiencies.

3. Governance

Financial services organizations face much greater scrutiny and regulatory oversight than many other sectors. The industry requires protocols for controls, processes, and documentation that meet strict guidelines. 

Provisioning, infrastructure delivery, and operations are major challenges associated with cloud computing and the complexity involved in properly implementing, using, controlling, and maintaining IT assets. 

Traditional governance models must be adapted to new environments to enhance security, manage risk, and avoid problems such as:

  • Poor integration between cloud systems
  • Data or effort duplication
  • System and business goals unaligned
  • Inefficient use or resources

How to do it right

  • Ensure reuse and access standardization to systems, data, and business flows
  • Keep cloud usage standards consistent with organizational and financial services regulations / compliance requirements
  • Align cloud strategy with overall business and IT strategies to ensure cloud systems provide quantifiable support for business objectives
  • Maintain clear agreements between all stakeholders so resources are used and shared appropriately
  • Implement changes in a consistent, standardized manner
  • Rely on monitoring and automation for dynamic event response

4. Operations Management

The problem of shadow IT and the unnecessary use of resources reduces operational efficiency and security while driving up costs. Robust cloud operations management helps overcome some cloud migration challenges. Service level agreements define expected performance levels, but continual monitoring is necessary to ensure SLAs are upheld as infrastructure components change. 

Processes and checks must be implemented in alignment with industry and corporate standards before code is deployed to production, and security requirements and access controls must be in place.

How to do it right

  • Active monitoring with execution control, error handling, and reprocessing rules
  • Easy-to-use dashboard
  • Logging and alert capabilities
  • API management support for the creation, security, management, and sharing of APIs
  • Ability to interact with existing ITSM tools to send logs, events, and metrics to central monitoring, email addresses, or messaging applications

5. Observability

Observability enables administrators to gather internal and external data on networked resources to monitor and understand their behavior, investigate anomalies, and improve performance and uptime. 

But this can be challenging in a cloud environment, especially given the massive volume of data and components in cloud architecture. In fact, 75% of CISOs within financial services organizations say vulnerability management has become more difficult as the need to accelerate digital transformation has increased.

How to do it right

Make sure the observability tools you select support:

  • Integration with existing tools and support for necessary frameworks and languages
  • User-friendly interfaces to ensure they are used correctly and regularly
  • Real-time insights through dashboards, reports, and queries so teams can quickly understand issues and their impacts
  • Support for modern event handling and context techniques
  • Visual presentation for rapid comprehension and action

6. Security

According to VMWare, in the first half of 2020, we saw an increase of 238% in cyberattacks targeting financial institutions. This frightening statistic emphasizes the need to ensure controls and practices that are in place for on-premises systems are adequate–or are replaced–to meet the requirements of cloud-based systems. Failure to support this transition could introduce new risks to your operation:

  • Increased attack surface (public cloud has become a large, attractive target for cybercriminals) 
  • Insecure interfaces and APIs
  • Lack of visibility and tracking, which can lead to reduced protections
  • Workload flexibility – traditional tools can’t handle dynamic environments
  • DevOps, DevSecOps, and automation, as well as appropriate controls must be identified early in the development cycle to avoid security gaps or delays
  • Granular permissions and keys management, which can provide the wrong users dangerously high access levels
  • Complex environments made up of public cloud, private cloud, on-premises deployments, and edge protection

How to do it right

Mission-critical resources must be deployed in logically isolated areas, and dedicated WAN links and enterprise-defined static routing configurations used to customize access to devices, networks, gateways, and public IP addresses.

Secure all distributed cloud applications and automatically update WAF rules when there is a measurable change in traffic. Be sure to apply and enforce all financial services security policies and processes consistently.

Employ encryption at every level of data transport, and deploy software that detects, identifies, and remediates threats in real-time.

How to Align Your Stakeholders for S/4HANA Success

Posted on October 10, 2022 by - Cloud Migration, Enterprise Integration Solutions, IT, SAP

The success of any IT project that involves the migration from established, foundational technology to contemporary, cloud-based technology, is often determined by how well you integrate the old with the new.

Case in point is the impending SAP S/4HANA migration, which for many organizations will be the largest IT project they’ve undertaken in years (if not decades). This mammoth task requires enterprise integrations across multiple systems and data stores in support of a more agile, resilient, and competitive business.  

Along with a solid project integration strategy to support your SAP S/4HANA migration, success is also defined based on the time and resources consumed, as well as any downtime to the business. But even with the best project strategy, achieving your desired outcomes is difficult (if not impossible) if your internal stakeholders are not aligned on the objectives of the project. 

For example, your CIO may expect that your impending SAP S/4HANA migration will immediately improve data security, whereas your CFO may expect an overall reduction in operational costs. Perhaps your Sales leader expects a faster time to market for new offerings, while your IT team is aiming for business process optimization and improved system reliability. 

While each of these objectives is achievable, delivering all of them on day one is not. Aligning the priorities and expectations of internal teams is a critical factor in the success of your SAP S/4HANA migration strategy.

A Meeting of the Minds

An international study about SAP S/4HANA transformation by LeanIX bears this out, with 66% of SAP users describing the alignment of teams (business, project, IT) as the biggest hurdle they face in migrating to SAP S/4HANA.

This lack of alignment impacts all aspects of your migration strategy, including enterprise integration and how internal teams prioritize these critical connections. 

The Digibee Enterprise Integration Report sums up an in-depth survey we conducted of business and technology leaders. For the report, we solicited input from respondents who had already implemented an enterprise-level integration initiative of a scale similar to the S/4HANA migration. We asked these leaders to identify three aspects of the project most likely to impact budget and spend. 

Everything is a priority

Top of the list was competing priorities, clearly reflecting a lack of alignment in how these important connections are ranked by internal teams:

*This blog post, originally published in October 2022, was updated above to reflect data from the 2023 State of Enterprise Integration Report published in April, 2023.

While the variety of desired use cases reflects the broad scope of enterprise integration in supporting your S/4HANA migration, lack of clarity in prioritizing the work results in conflict amongst stakeholders, delaying implementation and increasing costs as everyone marches to the beat of their own drummer. 

System downtime and resourcing were the other aspects leadership called out as most impactful to project budget and spend. 

3 Steps to Plan (and Align) for Success

These steps will guide you in creating an effective integration strategy that will help drive alignment amongst your internal teams, while ensuring the success of your S/4HANA migration strategy.

  1. Organize your integration strategy in stages. Focus on a single objective as an initial stage, socializing the strategy with stakeholder groups before any work occurs. This serves as a dry run and an initial exercise in project prioritization for internal teams. Implement additional objectives in subsequent stages, increasing workloads as the IT and project teams gain momentum.
  2. Build a cost-effective integration strategy. While business and technology leaders have valid concerns around budget, time, and people, with enterprise iPaaS technology, you can easily leverage in-house resources and other efficiencies to ensure your integration strategy delivers results in record time and on budget.
  3. Include the medium- and longer-term benefits of enterprise integration in your migration business case. While a successful integration strategy is imperative to your SAP S/4HANA migration, eiPaaS technology delivers continuous, ongoing value and innovation to your business:

Migrate to SAP S/4HANA and Eliminate Your Technical Debt

Posted on September 27, 2022 by - Cloud Migration, Enterprise Integration Solutions, SAP

The SAP S/4HANA migration train is still at the station, and — thanks to industry feedback — it’s there to stay. At least until 2027 when support for SAP ECC ends. However, this welcome respite is just a pause in what for many enterprises will be their most significant infrastructure upgrade in decades.

For some organizations, SAP S/4HANA may be their first serious foray to the cloud and an important step in their ongoing digital evolution. With the agility of the cloud and truly digitized processes to power them, these companies are now able to support new and innovative ways to do business. 

While it’s a given that the shift from SAP ECC vs SAP S/4HANA will require significant investments in time and resources, one of the biggest impacts on enterprises is the technical debt accrued over the years (and even decades) that SAP ECC architecture has been in use. 

1992The first SAP ERP was built based on the SAP R/3 software with various applications on top of SAP Basis (a set of middleware programs and tools). All applications were built on top of the SAP Web Application Server, with extension sets used to deliver new features and stabilize the core.
2004A complete architecture change occurred with the introduction of mySAP ERP with ERP Central Component (SAP ECC) replacing R/3 Enterprise.
2006The latest version (SAP ERP 6.0) was released, with subsequent updates using SAP enhancement packs. The most recent was SAP enhancement package 8 for SAP ERP 6.0 (released in 2016).
2015SAP S/4HANA launched.
2027Support for SAP ECC will end.

Based on the SAP ERP timeline, it is likely there are SAP customers out there who have been using the software for almost 20 years. During this time, an untold amount of customized coding has occurred to better align out-of-the-box SAP capabilities with the specific requirements of the business. Unfortunately, customized coding comes at a cost.

SAP Customizations: The Price We Pay

The need for customized coding is attributed to the rigid model imposed by SAP tools requiring additional development work (and subsequent maintenance) to adapt the technology to the processes of the business.

“Custom code is the biggest barrier in migrating or upgrading to a new SAP environment.” 

80% of organizations surveyed
Pillir ASUG Report, 2021

This is borne out in the numbers: 91% of SAP users rely on custom code with 90% of the code that’s in use considered to be “important” to “extremely critical”. In fact, 80% of organizations consider SAP custom code to be their biggest barrier in migrating or upgrading to a new SAP environment.

These customizations are woven throughout the business, facilitating important functions including CRM, ordering systems, inventory management, invoicing, accounting, and many other business-critical processes. In addition, almost half of the applications in question were developed more than six years ago, which means these systems and associated business logic are no longer contemporary.

Then there are the resources needed to maintain this model. In particular, the reliance on the same experts who built the customizations to manage any transitions every time a new or different platform is enabled within the existing environment. This siloing of expertise complicates efforts to innovate, especially when these experts leave the company. 

The numbers
– $800K annual spend (average) on the most important (2-3) custom applications
– 1000+ custom applications for a typical customer
– 20-30 SAP instances running at any one time for some Fortune 500 companies

Such heavy technical debt must be reconciled. Not only does it offset profit margins, it also delays the implementation of modern technologies, which are critical to the company’s ability to compete and succeed in the market.

Eliminating SAP Custom Code with iPaaS

Custom code is most typically used to tie two systems together (also referred to as custom coded point-to-point integration). But what begins as a fairly straightforward “connect point A to point B” exercise quickly devolves into a confusing mess with overlapping connections that are difficult to maintain and impossible to scale.  

The SAP S/4HANA migration is a perfect starting point for enterprises bogged down by the spaghetti-like architecture resulting from SAP custom code. Instead, organizations can leverage enterprise integration platform as a service technology. This model uses API integrations that seamlessly connect current systems and the new SAP S/4HANA platform.  

Bauducco migrated from its legacy ERP system to SAP S/4HANA, integrating 14 systems with the new platform and precluding the need for costly customization work. Learn more →

Although data migration is a critical step in the shift from SAP ECC to S4/HANA, by leveraging iPaaS technology, there is no need for SAP customers to accommodate the customized coding that’s been created over the years, essentially eliminating their technical debt while fast-tracking their SAP cloud migration strategy.

Digibee helps enterprises evolve from customized to simplified integrations. Our iPaaS technology bridges the gap between current systems and new technologies, connecting data and platforms that have never been connected before, regardless of underlying silos or legacy infrastructure.

Accelerate Your SAP S/4HANA Migration

Instead of viewing the extension of SAP ECC end of life to 2027 as a reprieve, Digibee customers are accelerating their migration timelines to more quickly eliminate the ongoing accrual of technical debt. With spending on customized coding reaching (and often exceeding) $1M annually, the faster their migration to S4/HANA, the sooner they can reconcile the technical debt they’ve incurred (and which continues to grow). 

With Digibee’s low code integration model, our customers implement integrations 40% faster, decreasing operating costs with fewer incidents, faster recovery times, and zero downtime. These efficiencies help free up resources to focus on the higher priority S/4HANA migration work.

6 Cloud Migration Challenges to Avoid

Posted on July 25, 2022 by - Cloud Migration, IT

The transition from on-premises to cloud environments can provide your business with an array of technological advantages, not the least of which is enterprise architecture modernization. But cloud migration challenges are real – and in some cases, quite daunting – and must be considered as you plan your transition.

The best offense is a good defense. If you understand the cloud migration challenges you can expect to face, you can take steps to prepare for them, minimizing disruption and ensuring a smooth transition. In this post, we’ll examine some of the most common challenges associated with cloud migration and provide some guidelines for minimizing their impact.
