Digitalize, modernize and grow your business with a tailored public or private cloud solution

Fujitsu and SAP on Azure

Improve your business efficiency, insight and innovation with Fujitsu and SAP on Azure

Migrate your SAP ERP and S/4HANA solutions to the Cloud and build a sustainable business foundation with intelligence firmly at its core.

In any cloud strategy, modernizing for improved agility, resilience and innovation while unlocking data-driven insight to enhance customer experiences, deliver sustainability goals and reduce costs, is essential for business success and growth.

If like many organizations, on-premises SAP systems form your business-critical technology backbone – from financials, sales and operations through to the supply chain – then it may be time to consider a different approach. An on-premises SAP strategy might work fine for you now, but long-term that won’t enable you to transform to innovate, evolve and grow into the future.

Work with Fujitsu and SAP on Azure. Together, we’ll migrate your SAP systems to the Cloud, empowering you to securely transform with speed and confidence so you’re ready to face any future disruption or opportunities that come your way.

Microsoft Azure scalable SAP cloud infrastructure - understanding the benefits to reap the rewards sooner

Microsoft Azure for SAP supports the complete SAP ERP suite including S/4HANA workloads of any size. High-performance services, with built-in threat prevention, deliver the agility needed to create new and innovative services and solutions faster and more securely than on-premises SAP systems.

Efficient processes

Manual tasks can add unwanted cost pressures, create work backlogs and leave your people feeling unfulfilled completing the same labor-intensive processes day after day.

Migrate to the Cloud, streamline your SAP estate and reduce reliance on manual actions to:

Drive efficiency
Manage costs
Avoid technical restrictions
Gain end-to-end visibility
Rapidly provision applications
Adapt and evolve at speed

Game-changing insights

If your SAP data lives in silos, is out of date or is not properly combined with non-SAP data, it’s impossible to gain the insight you need to make the right decisions across your business.

Migrate to the Cloud and gain a single real-time view of your data to:

Rapidly respond to market trends and competition
Set up new business models at speed
Plan process improvements
Run your business more predictably and safely
Gain insight to improve customer experiences

Faster innovation

If your tools are old and rigid, they won’t allow your people to innovate and flourish creatively, but a rip-and-replace approach might take too much time, energy and cost.

Migrate to the Cloud and enhance applications with emerging technologies to:

Innovate faster
Respond to customer needs on demand
Increase agility
Gain access to systems and data from various devices through multiple interfaces
