    [4] According to 2024 ASUG survey on SAP S/4HANA adoption, the average time to migrate to SAP S/4HANA is 1.5 years with customers reporting a time range from four months to six years on either end of the spectrum. Based on IBM's experience in executing cloud migration of SAP ERP workloads for over five years, moving SAP ERP workloads from Power on-premises to IBM Power Virtual Server helps reduce risk profile and also reduces migration time by up to 15-25% as compared to the heterogenous move from Power to x86 environments in other clouds due to the architecture consistency between both environments and compute performance of the Power processors.
