In the coming years, the SAP landscape will undergo serious changes. SAP's announcement that it will discontinue support for its standard ERP system is generally pushing the switch to SAP Hana and S/4.

In many cases, open source technologies form the basis for the successful migration to these new environments. Here, too, they are the modernization and innovation drivers par excellence.

SAP is now also increasingly going down the open source route. And another trend is spurring open source use: most SAP customers will be operating a hybrid cloud in the next few years.

Work on SAP Basis is crucial for successful S/4 conversion. This gives the so-called Competence Center strategic importance among SAP's existing customers.
