How to Avoid Change Freezes during Migrations and Upgrades
Hear about the only DevOps automation platform specifically engineered for use in SAP systems.
The platform comes from Basis Technologies and helps you to':
•    DevOps and test automation provides a fast, low-risk way to execute key steps in the S/4HANA journey as well as any upgrade or change project
•    Lets SAP teams keep S/4HANA systems updated without ever imposing a production change freeze
•    Automation to support successful S/4HANA projects and other projects

SAP teams have to do everything they can to avoid disruption during projects, but in today’s fast-moving world the business simply can’t afford to put a block on innovation. That means if you’re going to get to S/4HANA as efficiently as possible and leverage the latest innovations when you’re there, you need a way to avoid the old-fashioned idea of a change freeze. 

Moving to S/4HANA might seem like a one-off project but there’s much more involved when you consider the preparation necessary for a smooth transition and the open-ended challenge of innovation and keeping also a new system up to date.
