About this webinar:
In the context of the Covid-19 pandemic and a move away from on-premise, many businesses have their sights set on cloud migration. However, few have had to make the switch with as much urgency as Ensono’s client Arco.
In 2020, the safety equipment supplier learned that a major road was due to be built where its headquarters stood, forcing its data centre to close its doors. This gave Arco a matter of weeks to migrate its existing data centre environment onto Azure, including its SAP infrastructure. Knowing the benefits of moving to the cloud, Arco looked to an MSP with the deep industry expertise, skills and knowledge needed to undertake such a complex migration.
Cloud migration under such unique circumstances may be rare, but the opportunities and challenges Arco faced are valuable lessons for any business considering or in the process of migrating SAP to Azure.
Join this webinar to hear first-hand from Arco and Ensono on the role cloud migration plays in organisations’ digital transformation journeys and explore whether the benefits of moving SAP to the cloud outweigh the risks.
Take part in this web seminar to hear:
- The driving factors behind SAP cloud migration
- What organisations can gain from moving SAP to the cloud
- Lessons Arco learned from its experience, and how this can be applied elsewhere
