The Customer’s Journey to Modernized Integration with Incture  Â
Our customer, a leading British broadcaster and telecommunications company providing television, broadband, fixed line, and mobile services, faced critical challenges with their integration landscape. Their reliance on a soon-to-be-unsupported on-premise application threatened security and stability. They partnered with Incture to modernize their integration approach, aligning with their long-term strategic direction of moving to SAP S/4HANA and embracing cloud technologies.Â
Business Impact:
- Reduced Security and Stability Risks Â
- Modernized Integration Landscape Â
- Foundation for SAP S/4HANA Migration Â
- Enhanced Error Handling and AlertingÂ
Challenge:
The Need for Integration Modernization and Security StabilizationÂ
The customer’s integration relied heavily on SAP Ariba ITK, an on-premise Java-based application nearing end-of-support in December 2023. This dependency posed significant security and stability risks. Furthermore, the existing integration landscape needed modernization to support the company’s long-term strategic goal of migrating to SAP S/4HANA and transitioning to a cloud-based environment. A robust error handling and alerting framework was also lacking, hindering proactive issue resolution. The challenge was to migrate from SAP Ariba ITK to SAP Integration Suite and from PI/PO to SAP Integration Suite, ensuring seamless integration and improved operational efficiency.Â
Solution:
A Harmonized Digital EcosystemÂ
Incture implemented a comprehensive solution encompassing:Â
- Migration of existing PI/PO integrations to SAP Integration Suite, leveraging the power and flexibility of the cloud.Â
- Development of a BTP (Business Technology Platform) solution to replace the functionality of the aging SAP Ariba ITK toolkit, providing a secure and modern integration platform.Â
- Implementation of an automated alert system for erroneous functional scenarios, enabling proactive identification and resolution of integration issues.Â
Results:
A Future Ready Enterprise
Incture’s solution allowed the customer to modernize its integration landscape, mitigate risks, and future-proof their business operations, ensuring they remain competitive in a rapidly evolving digital world.Â
