Security
SAP on MS Azure is delivered by cloud-hosting experts at VC ERP using the IaaS cloud model, which means that we ensure that security protections are built into the service by Microsoft at the physical datacenter, physical network and physical hosts. These practices support enterprises adopting cloud-first strategies including selective workloads like SAP HANA Azure.
Resource based access control & resource locking
Role-based access control (RBAC) is an authorization system which provides fine-grained access for the management of MS Azure resources. RBAC can be used to limit access and control permissions on MS Azure resources for the various teams within your IT operations.
Secure authorization
Single-sign-on (SSO) provides the foundation for integrating SAP and Microsoft products.
Protecting your application and data from network vulnerabilities
Network security groups (NSG) contain a list of security rules that allow or deny network traffic to resources within your MS Azure VNet. NSGs can be associated with subnets or individual network interfaces attached to VMs. Security rules can be configured based on source/destination, port and protocol.
Maintaining data integrity through encryption methods
MS Azure Storage service encryption is enabled by default on your MS Azure Storage account where it cannot be disabled. Customer data at rest on MS Azure Storage is secured by default where data is encrypted/decrypted transparently using 256-bit AES.
Hardening the operating system
Security is a shared responsibility between Microsoft and you as a customer where your customer specific security controls need to be applied to the operating system, database and the SAP application layer.
Deployment Checklists
Our expert team of developers and consultants at VC ERP Consulting reviews the deployment checklist to make sure that many of the checks are completed at the beginning of the project and during the planning phase. We review the checklist periodically to ensure that you are updated with the latest features in the MS Azure platform before migrating SAP to Azure.
Project Preparation and Planning Phase
During this phase, you plan the migration of your SAP workload to the MS Azure platform.
Pilot Phase
Run a pilot before or during project planning and preparation.Use the pilot phase to test approaches and designs made during the planning and preparation phase.
Non-Production Phase
After a successful pilot or proof of concept (POC), you are starting to deploy non-production SAP systems to MS Azure. Incorporate everything you learned and experienced during the POC to this deployment.
Production Preparation Phase
In this phase, collect what you experienced and learned during your non-production deployments and apply it to future production deployments. Prepare the work of the data transfer between your current hosting location and MS Azure.
Go-Live Phase
Follow the playbooks you developed during earlier phases. Execute the steps that you tested and practiced and refrain from accepting any last-minute changes in configurations and processes.
Post Production
This phase is about monitoring, operating and administering the system. From an SAP point of view, the usual tasks that you were required to complete in your old hosting location apply.
Ideal Migration Scenarios for Moving to MS Azure
Ideal Migration Scenarios for moving to MS Azure Experience the speed & agility by migrating from an SAP Business Suite running on-premises to SAP S/4HANA in the cloud. This includes scenarios such as SAP HANA to Azure migration, which is a two-step process. The first step being migration from enterprise resource planning (ERP) on-premises from SAP ECC, SAP ECC on SAP HANA and SAP S/4HANA on-premise to the Suite on SAP HANA in MS Azure, and then converting from Suite on SAP HANA to SAP S/4HANA Cloud.
Moving on-premise data & applications from an on-premises location to MS Azure-based virtual machines in the cloud is known as Lift-and-shift.
