Seamless SAP Business ByDesign Upgrades: How Eclectic Consulting Ensures Smooth Transitions

23 January, 2019

Eclectic consulting explains that the distinctive character of cloud vendors is the ability to support upgrades. By dividing between the various stages and sections of their structure, they are able to upgrade the functionality while ‘in operation’, taking as little as a few hours or even minutes in some cases can you believe that. Eclectic consulting ensures smooth transition without disruptive re-installation and huge testing process like those on-premise software upgrades.

When done well by Eclectic Consulting, you will be able to support extensions by customers and partners that work without further modification, and even cary out a complete reengineering of SAP infrastructure without anyone noticing.

That’s the journey that SAP Business ByDesign has now — Shaping from its original SAP MaxDB database platform to HANA, and continue to support extensions that partners and customers have installed on the cloud ERP application. While new customers go straight onto the HANA platform, existing customers are moved a handful at a time, based on when the underlying hardware in SAP’s datacenter is due for an upgrade.

The ability to support customer and partner extensions through this upgrade process is one that predates HANA. It is a product of ByDesign’s “honeycomb” architecture.

There are now over a thousand separate third-party add-ons running on the SAP ByDesign platform, including some developed by partners that are being used multi-tenant by several customers at the same time. That demonstrates an important maturing of the product, according to Eclectic as a gold partner implementor of SAP in Indonesia.
