I am, of course, talking about the cloud licensing model. If one takes a closer look at SAP's cloud subscriptions and FUE (Full Use Equivalent), then the SAP existing customer quickly recognizes a lock-in danger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately, SAP has not borrowed from the hyperscalers, but has transformed the on-prem licensing model with one-time payment and maintenance fee into the cloud - there it is only called differently! The effect is similar to an R\/3 license: Once customized, the existing SAP customer is deeply trapped in SAP's cloud.<\/p>

\"Fullsize\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There is no exit strategy. There is no breathing model with a dynamic license adjustment. SAP's cloud licensing model reflects the same rigidity that the SAP community already knows from past R\/3 times. The cloud rental model is very inflexible and ultimately negates all the benefits that cloud usage should bring. There is no provision for moving to other clouds with fewer users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A return to the company's own data center - despite many hybrid concepts on paper - is not planned. Switching database servers from Intel-based infrastructure to IBM Power seems impossible. The future of the SAP cloud is a continuation of the on-prem past. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The existing customer enters the SAP cloud realm and should remain there forever - at least that is how SAP CFO Luka Mucic defines the new security of cloud subscriptions for SAP itself: Yes, SAP can do cloud, even if not for the benefit of its existing customers!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Given SAP's numerous and technically quite successful cloud offerings, the question posed, \"Can SAP do cloud?\" may sound more rhetorical than serious. However, there is one area that is essential for cloud computing, but is handled at SAP as in the old on-prem times.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[27840],"tags":[39128,39926,39,8855,39824],"coauthors":[27825],"class_list":["post-104028","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chefredakteur-blog","tag-chefredakteur","tag-chefredakteurblog","tag-cloud","tag-peter-faerbinger","tag-pmf","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":[],"featured_image_urls_v2":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","image-100":"","image-480":"","image-640":"","image-720":"","image-960":"","image-1168":"","image-1440":"","image-1920":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","trp-custom-language-flag":"","bricks_large_16x9":"","bricks_large":"","bricks_large_square":"","bricks_medium":"","bricks_medium_square":"","profile_24":"","profile_48":"","profile_96":"","profile_150":"","profile_300":""},"post_excerpt_stackable_v2":"

Aufgrund der zahlreichen und technisch durchaus erfolgreichen Cloud-Angebote von SAP mag die gestellte Frage \u201eKann SAP auch Cloud?\u201c mehr rhetorisch als seri\u00f6s klingen.
