You have to move off ECC by 2027 anyway. Do it on Microsoft Azure and turn a forced upgrade into a genuine leap — S/4HANA and RISE with SAP on certified, elastic infrastructure that connects your ERP to modern data and AI. Tech One Global plans and runs the whole journey.
SAP on Azure means running your SAP workloads — S/4HANA, SAP HANA, or classic ECC — on Microsoft Azure’s SAP-certified cloud infrastructure, instead of on the hardware in your own data center. Microsoft and SAP are long-standing partners, and Microsoft runs its own SAP estate on Azure.
The timing is what makes this decision urgent. Because SAP is retiring ECC support, almost every SAP customer has to move to S/4HANA anyway. Doing that migration on Azure — rather than refreshing on-premises hardware for a system you’ll modernize regardless — means the money you must spend also buys you cloud scale, security, and a direct line into Azure’s data and AI services.
Running the crown-jewel of your IT estate demands certified infrastructure, real resilience, and deep integration. Azure brings all three.
HANA-certified virtual machines with the memory and performance the largest SAP workloads need.
Deploy SAP's managed S/4HANA transformation package on Microsoft's cloud, fully integrated.
Availability zones, replication, and strong SLAs keep mission-critical ERP running.
Azure Center for SAP Solutions gives you a single place to deploy, monitor, and manage.
Surface SAP data in Microsoft Fabric and Power BI, and put Copilot to work on it.
Enterprise identity, encryption, and controls aligned to the Data Privacy Act and BIR needs.
SAP has confirmed the end of mainstream maintenance for ECC — and the timeline math is unforgiving. With migrations taking 18–36 months, the window to finish before support ends is closing right now.
No more standard support, security patches, or legal-change updates for SAP ECC 6.0.
Available at a premium — a costly bridge, not a strategy, and only for eligible releases.
A typical S/4HANA program's length — which is why starting now is the safe choice.
The migration is happening either way. The real question for leadership is whether that investment simply keeps the lights on, or whether it also moves the business forward.
Migrate S/4HANA onto on-premises hardware and you’ve spent a fortune to end up where you started — just newer. Migrate it onto Azure and the same spend retires your data center, gives you elastic capacity you can dial to demand, and puts your ERP data one step away from Fabric, Power BI, and Copilot.
There’s a hard cost to waiting, too. Extended maintenance carries a premium, and as the deadline nears, the pool of SAP migration talent and partner capacity is shrinking — pushing timelines and prices up for everyone who starts late.

SAP runs the core of these industries. Moving it to Azure changes what that core can do.
Run S/4HANA production, planning, and supply-chain on elastic infrastructure — and feed real-time ERP data into analytics and IoT.
Modernize finance and risk on S/4HANA with the security, availability, and compliance controls regulators expect.
Scale S/4HANA for peak trading, unify inventory and finance, and connect ERP to real-time demand signals.
Support complex distribution and trade promotion on S/4HANA, with the analytics to manage margin in real time.
Run asset-intensive operations on a resilient S/4HANA core, with the availability critical infrastructure demands.
Modernize public-sector finance and procurement on S/4HANA, with data residency and sovereignty in mind.
An SAP migration is one of the most consequential projects a business ever runs. We bring the delivery discipline, Microsoft depth, and local presence to make sure the crown jewels move safely — and land better than they left.
Brownfield, greenfield, or RISE — we assess your landscape and recommend the route that fits your reality and timeline.
NPC-aligned and built to support BIR requirements, so your ERP move satisfies the regulator as well as the roadmap.
We integrate SAP with your wider Azure, data, and Microsoft 365 estate — and manage it long after cutover.
Legacy migrations go wrong in the details: hybrid identity, mail flow, the line-of-business app nobody documented. Technical depth isn’t a nice-to-have here — it’s the whole job.
Mission-critical migrations reward structure. Ours de-risks every stage from assessment to steady-state.
Review your SAP landscape, custom code, and readiness — and define the target.
Choose the route — brownfield, greenfield, or RISE — and design the Azure architecture.
Execute the conversion or implementation with testing and clean cutover.
Connect SAP to Fabric, Power BI, Copilot, and your Microsoft 365 estate.
Run, monitor, and optimize your SAP-on-Azure environment for the long term.
It means running your SAP workloads — S/4HANA, SAP HANA, or classic ECC — on Microsoft Azure’s SAP-certified cloud infrastructure instead of on-premises hardware. You get SAP’s enterprise applications combined with Azure’s scale, resilience, security, and integration with data and AI services.
SAP is ending mainstream maintenance for ECC on December 31, 2027, with extended maintenance only as a paid bridge to 2030. Because S/4HANA migrations typically take 18 to 36 months, organizations need to start now to finish in time — and as the deadline nears, migration talent and partner capacity get scarcer and more expensive.
RISE with SAP is SAP’s managed, subscription-based offering that bundles S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition with infrastructure and services. Running it on Azure gives you SAP’s transformation package on Microsoft’s cloud, integrated with your wider Azure, data, and Microsoft 365 estate.
It depends on your landscape. Brownfield converts your existing system and keeps history and customizations; greenfield is a clean re-implementation with best-practice processes; RISE is SAP’s managed private-cloud path. We assess your estate and recommend the route that best fits your complexity, timeline, and goals.
Yes. Azure provides enterprise identity, encryption, and availability for mission-critical SAP, and we align the environment to the Data Privacy Act and support BIR requirements. As an NPC-registered, Data Privacy Seal–certified partner, we make sure your ERP move is defensible to the regulator.
With a SAP readiness assessment. We review your landscape, custom code, and constraints, recommend the migration route, and build a costed roadmap and Azure architecture — so you begin the most important project on your horizon with a clear plan.
A focused assessment of your SAP landscape, your route to S/4HANA on Azure, and a realistic plan to finish before support ends.
