Second, you need an automation engine that reliably handles comprehensive back-up, data recovery and migration / cloning tasks. Third, you need an implementation partner, that has in-depth Google Cloud know-how and certified SAP knowledge at the same time. HYCU is setting the highest standards with its new SAP S/4HANA BackInt Solution and we’re excited to be working together.”
