Case Study: Rizing achieves sub-hour SAP S/4HANA deployments with Chef Enterprise Automation Stack

Reducing Deployment Time of SAP S/4HANA From a Few Days to Less Than an Hour

Rizing is an SAP consulting firm that delivers functional and technical services with deep industry expertise and proprietary tools. They needed a complete, demonstrable SAP S/4HANA system for client demos but were spending days manually installing, configuring and validating complex S/4HANA components and dependencies, which slowed demos and risked installation integrity.

Rizing adopted the Chef Enterprise Automation Stack—using Chef Habitat for dependency isolation, Chef Infra for installation and configuration, Chef InSpec for hardening and continuous compliance, and Chef Automate for observability—to automate the end-to-end process. The automation cut deployment, configuration and sample-data setup from days to under an hour, enabling faster, more frequent demos, shorter cycle times and a stronger competitive position.
