In this session, meet SAP-on-AWS experts to discuss what it takes to implement an SAP landscape on AWS. Starting with a typical customer requirement and sizing, we talk through the process involved in choosing the right organization and procedures to deploy SAP on AWS, from compute configurations and storage to security, management, and monitoring.

Design principles: Reliability
• Test recovery procedures
• Automatically recover from failure
• Scale horizontally to increase aggregate system
availability

5. © 2019, Amazon Web Services, Inc. or its affiliates. All rights reserved.S U M M I T
Purpose of Well-Architected
Making informed decisions about architecture in the cloud, and understanding the
potential impact of decisions
Questions are the starting point; you should think actively about “what if” and failure
scenarios
Not a binary “yes” or “no,” depends on business context

3 - Improve backup/restore automation
- Encrypt data at rest
6 - Implement high availability
- Plan and test disaster recovery
Sample recommendations
