The optimal SAP S/4HANA deployment for your company

SAP S/4HANA deployment

Improve your management, your business processes and your IT infrastructure - with the right SAP S/4HANA deployment. With SAP S/4HANA you rely on a future-proof ERP system and are prepared for big data.


SAP S/4HANA offers many advantages to companies that rely on standardized processes and good planning. When migrating, whether from an older SAP version or from a third-party provider, you have the choice between four different deployments: Choose between an on-premise, hosting, and private or public cloud variant.

Your advantages with a SAP S/4HANA deployment

Decide on the SAP S/4HANA deployment that suits your company and get the fourth generation of the business software SAP.


Thanks to the in-memory database, the new ERP suite (ERP – Enterprise Resource Planning) impresses with, among other things, faster processing, comprehensive reports and analyzes in real time.

SAP S/4HANA deployments at a glance

Each SAP S/4HANA deployment offers its own advantages.

On-premise – the classic

Go for the on-premise version, choose the traditional implementation: you buy the software, install it and customize it to your needs. This includes both Customizing (settings) and Customer Development (customer-specific developments). You have full control at all times – and bear all of the responsibility. For example, you are responsible for the maintenance and repair of your servers.


You also have the option of using a hybrid approach: you run SAP S/4HANA on-premises on your local server and outsource IT administration processes to a service provider.

IaaS – SAP S/4HANA in hosting

Would you like full control over your SAP system, but would you like to outsource hosting and maintenance of the hardware? When using Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), known as a private cloud, a partner or provider takes care of the maintenance and repair of the hardware for you. IaaS has the advantage that you can continue to customize the software according to your ideas without having to worry about the IT infrastructure. However, you will have double the costs for licensing and hosting.

Public Cloud

In the case of SAP S/4HANA provision via a public cloud, a partner also provides you with servers and hardware. At the same time he takes over the management of the software. In this way, safety and operation are guaranteed at all times. You don't have to worry about downtime, backups or anything like that. Automatic updates take place quarterly. New features are installed immediately. However, individual adjustments tailored to your company are only possible to a limited extent. Because unlike the on-premise version, you can only make your own settings (customizing) to a small extent. Here you use the standard processes developed by SAP.

Private Cloud: Software as a Service (SaaS)

The private cloud is recommended for companies with complex structures. With the Software as a Service (SaaS) variant, you benefit from the advantages of the on-premise solution in combination with the advantages of a cloud: You own the technology, but a partner takes over the control, maintenance and repair of your hardware and software. With the private cloud, you enjoy full flexibility, maximum security and benefit from rapid innovations.
