Case Study: Apache Corporation optimizes SAP RISE economics with Lemongrass

Apache Corporation completes SAP RISE migration in 4 months with Lemongrass

Apache Corporation, a subsidiary of APA Corporation, faced the challenge of modernizing its traditional SAP ECC landscape to RISE with SAP on HANA under an aggressive four-month schedule. They needed a specialized partner, Lemongrass, to manage the technical complexity, ensure operational continuity, and avoid unnecessary long-term cloud costs while meeting strict requirements for performance and a constrained downtime window.

Lemongrass implemented a structured migration methodology focused on risk reduction and optimization. Their solution included validating the target architecture, employing SAP HANA Native Storage Extension (NSE) to optimize memory utilization, and conducting extensive rehearsal migrations. As a result, Lemongrass delivered the migration on time within the approved downtime window, with no business interruption and a stable production environment. This provided Apache with a more efficient, scalable platform and validated their targeted infrastructure footprint, reducing long-term costs.
