Step 5. Evaluate Data

📘

Note

The 6R recommendation scoring system described below isn't available as an out-of-the-box feature. However, our Professional Services Team can help you implement a custom algorithm for this assessment. This algorithm was developed based on projects with multiple customers. For more information, please contact support.

Now you want to evaluate the data you can find in your Application Fact Sheets. You can do that by scanning the application Fact Sheets manually and making decisions for each application. SAP LeanIX Professional Services offers a way to automate this process for you. By implementing a custom 6R algorithm, SAP LeanIX can give you automated recommendations to easier choose the most suitable cloud migration per application. This way, you can leverage the 6R scores as a conversation starter with your stakeholders because everyone needs to argue for and against specific options.

However, in the end, always ensure you align this decision with the stakeholders. As discussed, cloud transformation is a task for IT and business. Get everyone on board and then document this decision in SAP LeanIX as a single source of truth.

Once you have documented all 6R for your applications, revisit your target KPIs. By comparing the current state and target state of the hosting type, your cloud journey ahead becomes even more visible. The below charts are a must-have for every management dashboard.
