• DSAG (German SAP User Group) members
questioned the self-conception of the classic
“SAP Basis Team” in the light of digitalization.
• This attracted a lot of interest and finally DSAG
recommendations were published by the “SAP
Basis Team of Tomorrow” project group.
• new roles / future roles
• positioning & communication
• cross-function team
• How about your SAP Basis – or more general:
application architecture – teams?

HA in application (Enqueue Replication, HANA System Replication, SQL Server AlwaysOn…),
HA in OS, HA for VM and all potential dependencies…
What is the problem?
Let us have a look to a practical question …
Is built-in VMware HA sufficient for my
business needs?
➢ Finally it is not a matter of
technology – it is a matter of
people and organization.
Successful digitalization requires
organizational transformation.
Do I need to setup a InGuest-
Clustering or other solutions?
Do I really know my business needs & can I translate it to IT – and finally – architecture requirements?
OR
➢ Probably you will not find an
optimal solution if you do not bring
the right people together that
have the same attitude of
collaboration.
