Offerings
A holistic approach to cloud
Cognizant’s SAP on cloud offering spans the full scope of SAP requirements to deploy any or all production and non-production, SAP and non-SAP applications to the cloud, quickly and efficiently. It includes consulting on public cloud adoption, architecting the design for deploying or migrating SAP to cloud, preparing a detailed deployment/migration plan, and execution and ongoing optimization and support.
Visualize a detailed end-state
To design a fail-proof infrastructure architecture for deployment and migration of SAP to public cloud, you must visualize the end-state with great detail. Cognizant helps you do so, by:
- Capturing key business and security requirements
- Establishing a set of design principles to clarify objectives and priorities
- Making design choices for hosting.
We help you leverage multiple advantages of operating SAP systems in public cloud, including:
- On-demand infrastructure provisioning
- Scheduled automated startup and shutdown
- Automated backup management, monitoring and alerts
- Automated technical monitoring for optimizing operations and management costs.
Our unique SID-based pricing model gives you a truly consumption-based pricing approach, from both an infrastructure and managed SAP platform perspective.
Accelerate, build, migrate, deploy
Teaming with our partners, Cognizant utilizes best practices for deploying your SAP landscape on public cloud, for a green-field implementation (SAP Cloud Fit) and migration of your existing on-premise SAP workloads (SAP Cloud Shift). With deep experience delivering SAP S/4HANA engagements on public cloud, we’ve configured business-critical systems such as SAP S/4HANA with 99.9+ percent platform availability and fail-proof disaster recovery.
Cognizant can improve your business agility, reduce TCO, accelerate provisioning and give you a zero-defect transition to cloud. We’ve invested in building Cognizant’s SAP Cloud Assessment and Transformation Framework and SAP HANA Assessment and Transformation Framework; combined, they help us swiftly adopt and execute your cloud strategy and speed your SAP migration from on-premise to cloud—eliminating high capital expenditures on SAP.
Conducted jointly with a cloud provider
Cognizant has delivered multiple high-profile SAP engagements, including SAP Cloud Hosting, SAP HANA and SAP S/4HANA Adoption projects. All of these demonstrate the value we bring to SAP and our customers.
Our SAP Cloud Assessment Workshops for customers typically include:
- A three- to four-day cloud assessment workshop, conducted jointly by a cloud provider and Cognizant, at your location
