My take on DSAG annual conference 2024. Three fully packed with lots of information about SAP and its ecosystem. 🎓 🔥 #dsagjk2024 #risewithsap
"Moreover, 61% of existing clients had no plans to adopt RISE". It would be great to hear from customers who decided to move to "proper" cloud themselves. I.e. IaaS, DevOps* & IaC...(drops mic, lights fuse, walks away...) (*Git, CICD Pipelines, automatic installations of HDB/PAS & AAS instances, playbooks for kernel updates, tenant copy, automated backup and restore for quarterly Backup/DR testing etc. etc.) Try find those things in the R&R spreadsheets!
Great summary Frank for those that didn't make it to the event 👏 I wonder whether there will be a future theme on the subject of "how much the price has increased this year"...
Nice review Frank, I am interested to understand how customers would proceed if they did not agree with their “Roles and Responsibilities” in the contract, I struggle to see how a customer could affect a change apart from the cost?? (Have you ever read a RISE contract?)
Frank Albrecht forgive me — I am not an expert by far, I am just start wondering if the Swiss Army knows more and what their reasons were to move away from SAP.
Thank you! Your comment relating SAP Basis for RISE stood out: "more staffing may be needed to manage these complexities" 😱

1moMany thanks for the helpful summary. 👏 Many of the statements coincide with my personal experience: ◾ SAP's contracts are far-reaching. It is urgently advisable to seek specialized advice in order to understand the effects holistically, both commercially and operationally. ◾ Responsibilities in operations are shifting and the workload on the customer side is not decreasing. Service provider management for SAP, requires a great deal of detailed knowledge in order to implement customer requirements in a timely and commercially sound manner. ◾ I see the commercial side of using SAP BTP as a challenge. Even at the contract design stage, when ordering the various components, it is necessary to estimate precisely how much of which SAP BTP service you need. You can choose between different billing methods. An unfavorable estimate can have expensive consequences. The price structure is transparent and there are some tools to estimate the costs. Nevertheless, many customers find it difficult to estimate their budgeting requirements in advance because there is often a lack of data - especially when it comes to the amount of data to be processed. 🏷 I therefore recommend providing a buffer for higher BTP expenses for internal budgeting.
