QuestionQ128

Migrate SAP workloads to Azure

You have a complex SAP environment with both ABAP- and Java-based systems. The current on-premises landscapes are based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0

(Unicode and Non-Unicode) running on Windows Server and Microsoft SQL Server.

You need to migrate the SAP environment to a HANA-certified Azure environment.

Solution: You upgrade to SAP NetWeaver 7.4, then migrate SAP to Azure by using Azure Site Recovery.

Does this satisfy the goal?

  • A Yes
  • B No
Explanation

Azure Site Recovery can replicate SAP workloads to Azure, but it does not perform a database-platform conversion from Microsoft SQL Server to SAP HANA. Migrating an SAP system to SAP HANA requires a heterogeneous system copy or SAP Database Migration Option (DMO), which combines an SAP upgrade with migration to the SAP HANA database.
