NTT announced it has earned the SAP on Microsoft Azure advanced specialisation, a validation of a solution partner’s capability to deliver high-quality services in a specific solution area.
Representing NTT in the Middle East and African territory is Dimension Data, which has been named the preferred partner for the region due to its breadth of cloud, application, migration and integration skills and expertise, enabling effective execution and enabling clients to leverage the full value of the SAP ecosystem.
The SAP on Microsoft Azure advanced specialisation demonstrates NTT and Dimension Data’s deep knowledge, extensive experience and proven success at implementing SAP solutions on Microsoft Azure.
As mainstream support for the SAP ECC platform ends in 2027, and as core SAP products are being re-optimised for the SAP HANA database, many enterprises are looking for a partner with advanced skills to migrate their existing SAP environment to the cloud.
There are currently only eight companies in the world to have obtained SAP on Azure advanced specialisation accreditation.
“Organisations that harness the true power of cloud and effectively leverage its capabilities to become intelligent enterprises are able to realise tangible financial, operational and customer experience benefits,” said Jay Reddy, CTO, Dimension Data.
“We understand that organisations have different cloud strategies with regards to infrastructure, platforms, applications and security requirements and have an intensity of skills and intelligent technologies to meet their strategic and operational needs across the entire cloud ecosystem and value chain.
"This recognition of our SAP and Microsoft Azure skills and expertise is great news for enterprises across the region looking for a partner that understands and is highly skilled in ensuring that their cloud strategy delivers the required business outcomes. Adding this certification to all our globally recognised skills certifications from all major cloud and business application providers gives organisations choice, flexibility and confidence that we can execute their cloud strategy with the right combination of infrastructure, platform and applications for their business.”
Gavriella Schuster, Corporate Vice-President, One Commercial Partner (OCP) at Microsoft Corp, added: “The SAP on Microsoft Azure advanced specialisation highlights the partners that can be viewed as most capable when it comes to migrating enterprise SAP applications over to Microsoft Azure. NTT clearly demonstrated that they have both the skills and the experience to offer clients a comprehensive and professional SAP to cloud-managed service.”
