A smarter path to SAP S/4HANA: Modernizing with selective data transition

Still relying on your ECC system to run core business operations? With end-of-support looming and customer expectations evolving, now is the time to rethink your move to SAP S/4HANA® – without rewriting your ERP from scratch.

Let’s face it: your ECC-centric business ecosystem served you well, but it was built for a different era. Today’s architectures need to move faster, stay lean, and support intelligent processes. That means keeping just enough data on hand to operate in real time, while retaining the historical depth needed to power analytics, personalization, and AI.

In this session, we’ll show how a Selective Data Transition (SDT) approach lets you move to SAP S/4HANA on your own terms. Whether you’re transforming business entities, modernizing your footprint, or reducing technical debt, SDT offers the flexibility that traditional Greenfield or Brownfield methods lack.

We’ll explore

• why Greenfield is costly and Brownfield moves too much of the wrong data;
• how SDT enables an automated selective migration with embedded transformation to support remapping of data and - also - can support function-by-function migration or M&A elements (e.g. Company Code mergers) within the same process;
• the value of Archive Central for reducing SAP HANA® storage costs and simplifying compliance; and
• how PRISM minimizes disruption and accelerates time-to-value.

Whether you're preparing for 2027 or still evaluating your strategy, now is the time to ask: is it worth investing more into a legacy core that’s no longer evolving? Don’t let today’s projects become tomorrow’s regretful spend.
