SAP is our DNA. Migrating you off BW is our specialty.
DI Squared is a vendor-neutral data consultancy with deep SAP roots. Our migration practice specialises in moving BW landscapes to their next platform.
2027 isn't a suggestion. It's a hard stop for thousands of BW landscapes.
Tens of thousands of organizations still run SAP BW 7.5. When mainstream maintenance ends, so do fixes, security patches, and compliance updates — and BW migrations are measured in quarters, not weeks. The organizations that start now choose their path. The ones that wait get one chosen for them.
Patches and fixes stop
After December 31, 2027, BW 7.5 exits mainstream maintenance. Extended maintenance to 2030 exists — at a premium — but it's a holding position, not a strategy.
BEx is going first
Excel-dependent BEx tools — Analyzer, Workbooks, Broadcaster — have already entered customer-specific maintenance. The front end your users rely on is eroding ahead of the deadline.
Your data can't reach AI
Twenty years of business logic locked in InfoCubes and ABAP can't power AI agents, machine learning, or modern self-service analytics. Every quarter on legacy BW is a quarter of value deferred.
We don't translate SAP. We think in it.
Most cloud consultancies learned SAP from the outside in. DI Squared was built from the inside out — by practitioners who’ve lived in GL documents, delta queues, and fiscal period logic. We know what the data means, because we know the business processes that create it.
01 /
SAP data is our specialty
ECC and S/4HANA financials, logistics, and master data at the table and field level. SHKZG sign logic, fiscal year variants, currency types, profit-center hierarchies — the details that decide whether your numbers tie out.
02 /
We know the business processes
Record-to-report, order-to-cash, procure-to-pay. We understand how a posting flows from document to ledger to report, so migrated data models reflect how your business actually runs — not just how tables join.
03 /
BW modernization, end to end
InfoCubes, ADSOs, CompositeProviders, transformation ABAP, BEx queries — we reverse-engineer what your BW actually does, document it, and rebuild only what's business-critical.
04 /
Platform-fluent on the destination side
SAP Business Data Cloud and Datasphere, Snowflake, Databricks, Microsoft Fabric. Medallion architectures, semantic layers, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing and lineage — modern engineering discipline on whichever platform you choose.
05 /
Financial reporting that reconciles
P&L hierarchies, income statement rollups, period-close reporting. We validate every migrated report against your legacy numbers, line by line, so finance signs off with confidence.
We speak your stack2
SAP Business Data Cloud — or the cloud platform you've already bet on
We’re SAP experts, not SAP-only. Some customers belong in Business Data Cloud; others have standardized on Snowflake, Databricks, or Fabric. Because our depth is in the SAP source side, we can land your data — with its business context intact — on any of them.
Stay in the SAP ecosystem
Lift into BW Private Cloud Edition to extend maintenance to 2030, then shift to Datasphere via BW Bridge and Data Products — or go greenfield in Datasphere and retire the technical debt entirely. Native integration with S/4HANA, SAP Analytics Cloud, and SAP Databricks.
Rebuild on Snowflake
A governed medallion architecture on Snowflake with SAP business logic translated into SQL-native pipelines. Unified with your non-SAP data, open to your entire BI and AI toolchain, and independent of SAP licensing decisions.
Rebuild on your lakehouse
SAP data landed in an open lakehouse on Databricks or Microsoft Fabric — Delta-based medallion layers, ML-ready from day one, with the document flows and semantics your analysts depend on preserved through the move.
Not sure which fits? That’s exactly what our assessment answers. We evaluate your BW complexity, S/4HANA timeline, existing cloud investments, and AI ambitions — and give you a defensible recommendation, not a sales pitch.
