Growing businesses, growing requirements
A Spanish law firm was looking to migrate its SAP workload to the cloud for streamlined business continuity — accessibility, security and scalability. It was keen to implement an advanced application and infrastructure solution for growth, relevance, tech-savviness and scalability.
Scaling up with speed and security
The client needed a reliable partner for exceptional, regulatory-compliant services and a long-term collaboration. It partnered with HBA to build a hybrid cloud solution and migrate its workload from SAP to Azure, minimizing risks and ensuring a secure productive environment. HBA developed the business-critical SAP solution focusing on flexibility, reliability, security, and scalability.
Powered by HBA Landing Zone, the solution uses Microsoft Azure and HBA Private Cloud, leveraging Azure’s SAP-certified infrastructure with security and management services and integrating Microsoft Azure infrastructure with SAP subscriptions and HBA tooling like Service Now for incident management.
By implementing a Palo Alto high-availability solution, the HBA team ensured enhanced security, supporting the solution on both infrastructure and SAP application levels. A hub and spoke Azure design was the key to secure growth and scalability for increased volumes. HBA also collaborated with Microsoft Fastrack specialists for validating and certifying the solution.
A winning streak
Leveraging Azure, the HBA Landing Zone enabled the client to scale its infrastructure up or down as needed to meet business demands reducing its TCO by at least 20%. The cost-effective model also optimized Reserved Instances for a calculated break-even point.
