SAP on Google Cloud

Technologies

Run your entire SAP landscape on Google Cloud

SAP is the system of record your business runs on — so where it runs matters. Altivate plans, migrates and operates full SAP landscapes on Google Cloud’s SAP-certified infrastructure: RISE with SAP, S/4HANA, the SAP HANA database and the legacy systems around them.

The outcome is a faster, more resilient SAP estate that stays in your region and sits one step away from Google’s data-and-AI stack when you’re ready to use it.

SAP deep, kept intelligent — delivered by an SAP Gold Partner.

Why run SAP on Google Cloud

The infrastructure question comes first, because it decides how fast, how resilient and how compliant everything above it can be.

SAP-certified from the ground up

Google Cloud provides SAP-certified compute for S/4HANA and the SAP HANA database, with live migration that keeps SAP running through host maintenance and built-in high availability. You get enterprise-grade uptime without owning the hardware or the Basis firefighting.

Data residency built for the Gulf

Run SAP in-region so customer, finance and supply-chain data stays where your regulators expect it. Landscapes are governed to ISO/IEC 27001 with role-based access, audit logging and encryption throughout — residency and compliance handled as part of the platform, not bolted on afterwards.

Elastic scale for distribution peaks

Wholesale and trading businesses don’t run flat. Right-size SAP HANA and the wider landscape for month-end close, seasonal demand and new-market expansion — scaling up for the peak and back down after it, so you pay for capacity when you use it, not year-round.

Delivery

RISE with SAP, S/4HANA and SAP HANA on Google Cloud

RISE with SAP on Google Cloud

Adopt RISE with SAP with Google Cloud as your hyperscaler, and let Altivate handle the landing zone, networking and cutover. You get SAP’s cloud ERP subscription running on infrastructure we tune and operate — a single, managed path to a clean core. Explore GROW & RISE with SAP →

S/4HANA, greenfield or brownfield

Move to S/4HANA the way that fits your business — a clean greenfield build, a system conversion from SAP ECC, or a selective transition. We size the target, plan the data migration and rehearse the cutover so go-live is a non-event. SAP S/4HANA →

SAP HANA, tuned for the cloud

Lifting HANA onto a cloud VM is not the same as running it well. We right-size memory and compute, configure HA and backup, and tune the database for Google Cloud so reports, MRP runs and financial closes finish faster than they did on-premises.

Migration

Migrate and modernize a full legacy landscape

Most SAP estates are more than one system: S/4HANA or SAP ECC at the core, plus SAP PI/PO integration, the SAP HANA database, and a web of interfaces to the rest of the business. Altivate migrates the whole landscape together — discovery and cloud-readiness assessment first, then a sequenced move that keeps integrations intact and downtime inside a planned window. Where it makes sense, we modernize on the way: consolidating environments, retiring technical debt and optimizing HANA for the cloud, so you land on Google Cloud in better shape than you left — not just in a new data center.

The edge

Make your SAP data AI-ready

Running SAP on Google Cloud puts your data one short step from analytics and AI. These are the on-ramps — the sibling spokes go deep.

Land SAP data with Cortex Framework

Bridge your running SAP system to BigQuery with the Cortex Framework accelerator — the fastest on-ramp from SAP to analytics and AI. Cortex Framework for SAP →

Analyze and ground AI in BigQuery

Once SAP data is in BigQuery, finance, supply-chain and sales reporting runs on a serverless warehouse — and the same governed data grounds Gemini-powered analysis and the Gemini Enterprise agents your business users build. Our AI & data spoke covers the products in depth. BigQuery →
