RISE with SAP brings together the solutions and services our customers need for a true business transformation in one package in the way that works best for them - regardless of their point of departure, their end destination, or how fast they want to move. We know that transformation is a journey, not a destination, so RISE with SAP allows customers to change not only once but to continually transform - with SAP alongside them every step of the way.
RISE with SAP S/4HANA Cloud, the private edition, is one of the key deployment options for our customer's cloud transformation. It provides our customers with a comprehensive cloud infrastructure and managed service offerings that are an essential part of the overall cloud strategy of SAP. This enables customers to safeguard their existing SAP ERP investment while benefiting from a new level of flexibility - tailoring the software to meet their specific needs, retaining company-specific configurations and customizations of their SAP ERP system, and accessing the latest capabilities that give their company a competitive advantage.
Under RISE with SAP, SAP allows customers to run their SAP S/4 HANA and other SAP applications in a managed private cloud environment in SAP's datacenters, IaaS Hyperscalers, SAP Premium Suppliers, or in customers' existing datacenters. SAP has established strategic partnerships with the major cloud infrastructure providers, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (Google Cloud Platform), to offer customers maximum choice for their SAP private cloud deployment.
