Enterprise applications like SAP, Oracle and Microsoft are a lot like million-dollar race cars. They are complex, demanding and loaded with advanced capabilities designed to deliver game-changing productivity and efficiency. But with this increased complexity and dynamic environments, many organizations struggle with whether to manage these mission-critical applications in-house or to contract with professionals who are skilled in running and managing these applications on premises or in private cloud environments – and delivering to you the most value for your investments.
For some organizations, the answer is to stay with the model they know – on premises – and train their IT teams as they introduce advanced tools and processes to administer the IT stack. This can be costly and slow operations while teams get up to speed with new technologies. It’s also challenging to find and keep top IT staff. For other companies, they see the value in outsourcing these business-critical applications to application managed cloud experts so that they can focus on what they do best – running their core business.

When a global auto manufacturer decided to move to S4/HANA, it needed the scalability of a cloud environment, but was not ready to sacrifice security and control in a public cloud. After considering a variety of alternatives, the manufacturer chose Hitachi based on our application managed cloud service’s flexibility and delivery model. Our solution not only offered a variety of choices for cloud hosting but included a delivery model to manage the entire deployment, including hardware, operating systems, database and SAP Basis technologies. As a result, the client accelerated the benefits of S4/HANA and rapidly responded to changing business requirements.
