Title
How Microsoft Moves Their SAP Landscape into Azure
Abstract
Microsoft runs a large SAP landscape with more than
500 operating system images either on bare-metal
servers or virtual machines. Microsoft is on a path to
move a major number of their SAP systems from on-
premise to Azure public cloud in order to run a SAP
landscape cross premises. This session will report
experiences and best practices.

AZURE
Issue:
Azure does not support
shared disks as necessary for
setup of WSFC configurations
suitable for SAP CI/ASCS/SCS
Solution:
Use 3rd party SIOS Datakeeper
to create Windows Server Failover Cluster with Shared Disk:

STEP 4: FINAL HYBRID STATE
We are leveraging our own MSIT supported Azure subscription and own
ExpressRoute connectivity.
VM provisioning and storage design done by Basis team
SAP Basis team needed to ramp-up knowledge on Azure IaaS
Moving to ARM template
All VMs are 2 the Azure regions: Non-prod in one, production in the
other
Re-evaluate system location in hybrid cloud as part of capacity
management
Plans for DR for production systems in Azure similar to on-premise
solution (Do not rely on Azure DR failover, due to requirements to do
business initiated failovers independently)
Snoozing of Azure VMs if not required (e.g. weekends, holidays)
Build out new environments according to real needs, not future
expectation. Grow environment over time as requirements change.
