It's not an SAP problem.
It's an architecture problem.

The question isn't how to move SAP data. It's how to build an architecture that gives every team trusted data, consistent business definitions, and the flexibility to scale analytics and AI.

Determine what belongs where

Not everything belongs in Snowflake. Not everything should be siloed in SAP. We help you design an architecture that gets the best from both, building bi-directional data flows where your business needs them.

Determine what belongs where
Modernize SAP BW and analytics
Eliminate duplicate SAP data
Connect your enterprise

Questions we hear every day.

Implementation partners with both SAP functional depth and Snowflake engineering depth, which is a narrow field. IBM is an SAP Platinum Partner with expertise across Finance, Supply Chain, and Operations. Hakkoda is an Elite Snowflake Services Partner with 980+ SnowPro certifications. We plan the architecture, configure the enrollment and trust relationship, set up the data products your teams consume, and connect it to the rest of your Snowflake foundation.

It depends on the number of source systems, the complexity of the models, and regulatory requirements. Straightforward workloads move in weeks. Large enterprise programs with heavy custom BW logic typically run several months. Our AI accelerators have reduced migration effort by 30 to 40 percent by automating code conversion and validating data quality at each stage.

No, and usually you should not. BW and SAP Analytics Cloud remain strong for SAP-native reporting and planning. Snowflake is usually the better home for the broader governed layer that blends SAP with non-SAP data and feeds AI. We help you draw that line by workload rather than by ideology, so SAP stays the system of record and Snowflake becomes the analytics and AI surface.

Yes. That is what BDC Connect enables. SAP data is read in place rather than extracted into duplicate storage, which removes the cost, latency, and reconciliation drift that come with copying data out of SAP.

They solve different problems and work together. BDC Connect handles the governed SAP semantic layer with zero-copy sharing. Fivetran handles ingestion from non-SAP sources. Together, the full estate lands in Snowflake governed and ready.

Most start with a 30-minute conversation about your current SAP estate and where analytics is breaking down. From there we scope an architecture and roadmap session, then a delivery plan. We also run the environment day to day through managed services if you do not have the internal capacity.

Your AI strategy is only as strong as your data architecture.

Meet with IBM-Hakkoda to discuss your SAP landscape, your Snowflake strategy, and the fastest path to AI-ready analytics.
