Architect SAP on Azure
This chapter will walk you through the steps required to plan your SAP on Azure architecture. As the title suggests, the focus is on the what and the why, how you architect SAP in Azure, not the how of building it, which is in the following chapter. Depending on where you are on your journey to Azure may influence which sections you need to read. We'll begin from the initial planning stage – landscape planning, where we design the structure of basic cloud artifacts. We'll call it the landing zone. It's a set of Azure resources that allows your company to build solutions in the cloud. It includes virtual networks and connections to your on-premises data centers but also the hierarchy of resources for effective management and simplified billing.
