SAP Cloud Platform Scalability

Taiwo Babalola - PeerSpot reviewer
Information Technology Business Partner and Enterprise Architecture Lead at Power International Holding

Based on my experience, I would rate the scalability of SAP Cloud Platform as a six. There's room for improvement, and it's not as flexible as some of the other open platforms. However, it still deserves a six out of ten.

In our organization, we have around 8,000 to 10,000 users.

It's completely managed by SAP, so you don't have to worry about the scalability part. You can just deploy your subaccounts and SAP would be managing the infrastructure and all the storage, networking, and everything. We will be able to just deploy applications and manage without having to worry about sizing.

Currently, we have around 30 users using it for development integration and different purposes. They are actually working on it. On the other side, the user point of it is around a thousand plus users on the application side.

Slowly, there are more and more products being introduced in the SAP Business Technology Platform, that's the Cloud Platform. We have a lot of systems running on-premise as well, and here is where you have the possibility to increase usage. Sometimes your on-premise systems will come to the end of life. You don't have to upgrade those systems which are running on-premise. Instead, you can migrate your application to the SAP Cloud Platform and start using the solutions which are provided by SAP. From that point of view, you don't have to do any system administration. You don't have to do any hardware maintenance. It will be completely managed basically. From our side, slowly the usage would be increased, for sure.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten. I think the private cloud is scalable. The public cloud is not very scalable. The solution is suitable for small and medium companies.

It is not much of a scalable solution. One of the issues with the tool is that if its processes get stuck, you cannot cancel them from your end, so you have to seek help from SAP, which is a painful process as it takes hours before the stuck processes get canceled. The product is fine, but it is not the best.

My company provides the solution to one of the companies under the big four. A considerable number of people use the platform, and it is growing because the demand for cloud integration has increased as it's free with other SAP products, causing the demand for Dell Boomi to reduce. I don't have a straightforward number related to the number of the tool's users in my head, but I think that indicates the tool currently has more than 100 users.

The solution scales well. It’s easy to expand.

It's easily scalable when we need to expand or increase the capacity. You don't have to worry too much about having a lot of infrastructures. This is beneficial. On a scale of one to ten, I’d rate scaling at a nine.

We have about 700 users on the solution. The whole company is on the solution.

The tool is scalable. If we want to add some more dashboards or anything, we have to coordinate with the consultant, and they will enable it. We must contact the consultant if we use all the core modules and want to introduce client maintenance with additional features. The consultant will bring all the information into the system and make it ready for the business. I rate the scalability an eight out of ten.

We have about 300 people using the solution currently. Starting from where we did, at 100 users, all the way up to 300 users, we haven't scaled much. If a company scales up to 5,000 I don't know what will happen. We haven't tried to make that jump.

The BI design is used every day. The cloud platform is used for the special developments we have, so we use it often as well.

The solution is easy to scale. We have clients that have from 500 all the way up to 4,000 users. The majority are ERP users. The majority of the clients we work with use SAP as their core business solution. They increase the use depending on their business needs.

The scalability of the product is fine. Scalability is one of the benefits that we have in using the product.  

I do not know exactly how many people are using the solution in our organization, but we have a little over 20 users with some four to five admin roles. So there are about 30 users in total.

There are no issues with scalability and we can scale as we like. This solution is only used by my team and we have two to three people using it.

We are definitely planning to increase usage because our company is moving everything to the new architecture for SAP cloud-based solutions.

I'm not sure how scalable the solution is. We're not yet fully deployed, so we haven't yet devised a scaling strategy that our application hardware will work on.

It is scalable. The number of staff members we will need for a deployment will vary on the project. We need one for a smaller project.
