SAP HANA Adoption Roadmap for Liverpool
Evaluation Criteria
Evaluation Criteria
 The evaluation criteria below were used in order to get to the SAP HANA adoption roadmap:
#
Criteria
Exemplary Questions
0
Boundary Condition:
Technical feasibility
• Is the application available on SAP HANA?
• Can the scalability requirements for the application be met with the available technical architecture and
hardware for SAP HANA?
1
Business value
• Are there pain points or cost drivers in the business resulting from the current solution (e.g. performance,
duplication of data)?
• Are there business requirements for “big data”, more real-time business or higher speed and agility?
• Are there business opportunities to (re)build processes?
2
Value for IT
• Are there pain points or cost drivers in IT from the current solution (e.g. replication of data, complexity of
architecture, license cost)?
3
Effort/duration and risk of
transition
• What is the effort/duration for testing, training and technical transition?
- How large is the difference between current state and target state (release level, Unicode, disruptive
changes with the new release)?
- How many business scenarios are used? How many users?
• How business critical is the application?
• How risky is the transition in general?
