- SAP HANA | From Business Case to Production
For most companies, an SAP HANA migration represents a profound change in the way ERP is done. It’s a chance to restructure the whole ERP landscape to precisely meet the strategic business and technical needs of the company.

In this SAP SAPPHIRE NOW presentation, Hans Dossche, Director for HANA COE at KPIT joins Symmetry’s own VP of SAP Solutions, Kevin Kneuse, for a presentation and live Q&A about the HANA transformation process. We’ll discuss the process, from creating a business case, through designing a solution with SAP and non-SAP applications, all the way through performance tuning and go-live.Wednesday, May 17th, 3:00 – 3:30 p.m., Booth #957
