This document provides guidance on migrating SAP BusinessObjects from an on-premise environment to the cloud. It outlines a five-phase methodology for a successful migration: 1) assessment and planning, 2) execution, 3) validation and optimization, 4) going live, and 5) day-to-day maintenance. The methodology aims to reduce costs and timelines by up to 80% by automating tasks like regression testing, content migration, and maintenance. This ensures the migrated platform performs as well as the original while inspiring user confidence.
