Solution
Quantiphi created on-demand SAP Certified VMs, operationalized the IAM Concept, delivered Secure Foundation and the Landing Zone for SAP sandboxes as ready-to-be deployed environments. We also included additional landscape complexities in operationalizing the overall landscape that included an interplay of different Operating Systems (RHEL and SUSE) for enabling the workflows across SAP VMs.
The 3 MVPs included in the scope consisted of SAP ERP (ECC), SAP S/4HANA, and SAP BW/4HANA hosts. They were designed to best-run different SAP environments including ERP, DWH, and BI/ reporting types of workloads.
Results
- Multi-tenant design for the client's customer tenants and network isolation between customer tenant environments.
- Customized reporting of GCP billing data with BigQuery and Google sheets/Excel.
- Leveraged Google Cloud’s default encryption solution instead of external tools.
