Must Attend Partner Managed Cloud sessions at SAPPHIRE 2016!

As enterprises of all sizes explore and increasingly commit to cloud deployments, a fundamental market reality has become clear – for most companies, a dynamic hybrid solution landscape with a combination of on-premise, hosted private cloud, and public solutions will be here for the foreseeable future.The rate of cloud adoption continues to rise among SAP customers, and for good reason: The flexibility afforded by cloud computing has become a major business enabler. Yet choosing the right cloud option can be a challenge, especially when selecting between the customization of a private cloud and the support of a public cloud. To enable easier cloud adoption and simplify this choice, SAP has introduced the partner managed cloud program, a route that enables organizations to use the expertise and support of SAP’s partner ecosystem while deploying their public cloud solution.
