Your IT team is likely spending too much time maintaining legacy integrations instead of driving innovation. Relying on outdated middleware like SAP PO or Microsoft BizTalk creates technical debt and data silos. It is time to turn your migration project into a strategic advantage.
To answer the question of what comes next after migration, we hosted the “Beyond Migration – Unlocking the Full Potential of SAP Integration Suite” webinar. Organized under the SAP Migration Factory program, this session brought together industry experts to share practical insights on building a modern integration landscape.
The event featured:
- Radosław Ruciński, Integration Architect at Sygeon
- Michał Królikowski, Enterprise Application Integration Architect at Bystronic
- Rafał Dzienisiewicz, BTP Customer Success Partner CEE at SAP
Here is a roadmap for modernizing your enterprise architecture based on the insights shared during the session.
Why Lift and Shift is Not Enough
Mainstream support for SAP PO ends in 2027. Moving your integrations exactly as they are is a missed opportunity. According to a Forrester report, organizations using SAP Integration Suite reduce the time required to deliver new integrations by 30% compared to legacy environments. Utilizing pre-packaged content cuts this time even further. Instead of maintaining a tangled architecture, you gain a standardized platform built for speed.
Real Transformation Stories
We discussed two case studies showing how migration drives broader business value.
- Bystronic (Migration from Microsoft BizTalk): Migrating allowed the company to establish new integration standards and unify their architecture. They simultaneously deployed new Salesforce integrations, significantly accelerating their time-to-value.
- Qemetica (Migration from SAP PI/PO): Our team successfully migrated over 150 integrations. More importantly, 60% of these were modernized into an event-driven model. This approach reduced the load on source systems with zero business disruption.
Event-Driven Architecture and Integration Governance
Scalability and security are critical for any growing business. Adopting an Event-Driven Architecture provides real-time data access and decouples your core systems.
- SAP Event Mesh: An excellent starting point for use cases within the native SAP ecosystem.
- Advanced Event Mesh: A robust service based on Solace technology designed for complex global scenarios and connecting non-SAP systems.
Decentralized data flow requires strong integration governance. You need a single source of truth for all active interfaces.
- API Management: Allows you to publish interfaces in the Developer Hub and apply consistent security policies. It reduces IT bottlenecks by enabling reusability.
- SAP Business Accelerator Hub: Provides access to over 700 integration packages and more than 250 connectors, so your team does not have to build from scratch.
- Amphi Application: Our standalone monitoring solution supports both SAP PO and SAP CPI. Powered by AI, it detects anomalies such as “silent errors” where a system fails to send an expected message. This helps IT teams react before the issue impacts the business.
Artificial Intelligence in Integration
AI needs integrated, high-quality data to function. SAP Integration Suite acts as the secure foundation connecting your enterprise systems.
AI is also reshaping how integration developers work. Language models can now:
- Generate mapping proposals based on PDF or Excel documentation.
- Safely support legacy code migration, such as translating Java mappings (UDFs) from SAP PO to modern Groovy scripts.
- Automatically create comprehensive technical documentation using data from systems like Jira.
