HP committed Monday to make available a variety of new services to support users as they move to adopt SAP's Enterprise SOA (ESOA) approach.
The services are designed to help very large global SAP customers as they migrate from older versions of the vendor's R/3 applications to the newer SOA-focused mySAP versions, according to Tim Treat, manager of worldwide packaged applications for enterprise applications services at HP.
Such a migration is highly complex involving not only the upgrading of software, but also refreshing of servers and storage to support the new applications, he said.
