Why Run SAP on AWS?

Security, scalability, high availability and cost savings, without buying or maintaining hardware.

Running SAP on Amazon Web Services means paying only for the infrastructure you use, scaling up or down in minutes, and building disaster recovery that would be unaffordable in your own data center. As an AWS SAP Competency Partner and SAP Gold Partner, CONTAX migrates SAP systems to AWS and runs them with optimum efficiency, and has run its own SAP workloads on AWS for years.

SAP on AWS FAQ

Why move SAP to AWS?

To pay only for the infrastructure you use, scale quickly, improve availability and disaster recovery, and stop buying and maintaining hardware. Moving to AWS can also be a first step toward S/4HANA.

How long does an SAP migration to AWS take?

It depends on the size of your landscape. Sara Lee moved its entire SAP workload in a week, and BESA Technologies completed its migration in two weeks. The free assessment gives you a realistic plan and timeline.

How much can we save running SAP on AWS?

Savings come from right-sizing and from stopping non-production systems when they aren't in use; scheduling alone can cut hosting costs for those instances by up to 70%. The assessment estimates your total cost of ownership.

What happens to disaster recovery?

AWS makes disaster recovery far more affordable. Depending on your risk profile and budget, we set up anything from backups in Amazon S3 to full failover instances, and test failover regularly.
