Why Azure for SAP S/4HANA

Azure is a strong choice for RISE with SAP private cloud deployments, particularly for companies with established Microsoft 365 and Azure investments. It creates a natural consolidation point through unified identity and access management, consistent governance, integrated security, and a more streamlined commercial relationship across the cloud estate. 

Korcomptenz is a Microsoft Azure Direct Cloud Provider, giving SAP clients faster licensing support, closer escalation paths with Microsoft, and access to joint architecture expertise. This helps enterprises simplify hybrid connectivity, improve resilience, strengthen disaster recovery, integrate SAP with Microsoft services, and manage performance and cloud costs through a consistent operating model.

The FinOps discipline — because Azure bills surprise people

One of the most consistent findings in midmarket SAP cloud deployments is unexpected cost spikes after go-live. Reserved instances sized too large, development systems left running, HANA memory over-provisioned against actual workload. We build FinOps governance into every SAP on Azure engagement from day one:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Azure is SAP's primary hyperscaler for RISE with SAP private cloud in North America, co-engineered with SAP, offering native Microsoft 365 integration, unified identity governance, and a single commercial relationship across your cloud estate.

Korcomptenz is a Microsoft Azure Direct Cloud Provider — not just a certified reseller. That means faster licensing, direct escalation to Microsoft, and a co-developed architecture. Most partners advise. We remain accountable across infrastructure, support, and licensing from day one.

FinOps governance is embedded before migration begins — not after spend spikes appear. Reserved instances are sized against actual workload profiles, consumption is tracked by system type, and monthly optimization reviews keep finance and infrastructure aligned on one shared dashboard.

We configure active/passive or active/active failover architectures, tested against your actual RTO/RPO targets — not vendor benchmarks. HA/DR is validated pre-go-live and maintained continuously, with uptime-based SLAs that hold Korcomptenz accountable beyond standard managed service agreements.

Our team absorbs every quarterly SAP release without touching your clean core. No frozen landscapes, no regression backlogs. Updates are planned, tested, and deployed within your change management framework — business continuity remains non-negotiable throughout.
