Migration Procedure

Figure 1 shows the implementation procedure of a typical SAP migration project.

Figure 1 Migration procedure

The implementation phases are as follows:

Project Preparation
Based on specific requirements and application system information, assess the risks and feasibility of the cloud migration. Collect information and assessment results to plan the project and design the solution. Manage the project, for example, establish a project team and formulate team management regulations.

HUAWEI CLOUD provides a system deployment solution and offers migration suggestions. The solution includes computing, network, and security resources on the cloud, and account systems.
Tests and Drills
Set up the migration environment to ensure that the system will meet the requirements after the migration to HUAWEI CLOUD. Ensure that no problem remains unsolved in each phase of the migration project.

HUAWEI CLOUD provides a series of user and deployment guides to help you migrate the system:
Preparations for Bringing the System Online
Optimize the migration solution based on the drill and test results and determine the final solution. List known issues and transmission items. Test HA, switchover, and shutdown solutions, and decide the switchover and shutdown plan. Design and verify the rollback solution.

This task is performed by the migration implementor and supported by HUAWEI CLOUD.
System Switchover
Migrate the workload according to the final switchover plan and solution determined based on the system tests.

This task is performed by the migration implementor and supported by HUAWEI CLOUD.
Bringing the System Online
Continuously monitor the system after it is brought online and optimize the cloud architecture if necessary.

This task is performed by the migration implementor and supported by HUAWEI CLOUD.
