Migrating SAP Environments from other cloud providers

GS03i While technically possible to do so for the simpler landscapes SAPs guidance has been to build and copy. For production landscapes thats definitely the way to go. But for smaller deployment and cases where the DB is not running an HA configuration you could use tools like Azure Migrate: Server Migration as well

bsiva thx 4 ur reply, just to be sure I get it right, if for example i have a simple landscape including Prod, QA, DEV. Where APP and DB are installed on same server with no HA or Replication. I could use Azure Migrate: server migration...am i right?

GS03i Yes. That is correct. If you use Azure Migrate's agentless migration option for VMware or Hyper-V VMs, the tool shuts the VM down and performs one final sync before migrating which ensures that the DB will be consistent. If using the agent-based approach, you can stop the database prior to the migration and wait for a subsequent data sync to ensure the DB is kept consistent.
