OVERVIEW

What This Means for You

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition gives you a dedicated S/4HANA system in the cloud, with infrastructure and technical operations managed under RISE with SAP. It offers most of the flexibility of on-premise, including industry solutions and broader extension options.

Private Edition suits companies that need more flexibility than the public cloud allows, that are moving from ECC and want to keep history or configuration, or that run industry-specific processes.

Webtel supports Private Edition projects end to end: new implementations, conversions from ECC and selective transitions, working alongside SAP's RISE services.

Webtel helps you make this decision based on facts. We look at your system, data, custom code, business priorities and budget, explain the options in plain language and give you a recommendation you can take to your board, together with a realistic plan.

FAQS

Common Questions

What is the difference between private and public cloud?+

Private Edition is a dedicated system with broader scope and flexibility; Public Edition is a standardised multi-tenant SaaS.

Can we convert ECC directly to Private Edition?+

Yes. Brownfield conversion into Private Edition is a common path under RISE.

Who manages the system under RISE?+

SAP manages infrastructure and technical operations; a partner like Webtel typically handles application implementation and support.

When does support for SAP ECC end?+

Mainstream maintenance for SAP ECC 6.0 ends after 2027, with optional extended maintenance available until the end of 2030. Many companies are planning their move now to avoid a rush.

How long does a move to S/4HANA take?+

It depends on the approach, the size of your system and the amount of custom code. We give you a realistic plan after an assessment.

Can we change approach later?+

Some elements can change, but the core choice should be made early. A good assessment reduces the risk of changing course mid-project.
