Use Azure to host and run SAP workload scenarios
When you use Microsoft Azure, you can reliably run your mission-critical SAP workloads and scenarios on a scalable, compliant, and enterprise-proven platform. You get the scalability, flexibility, and cost savings of Azure. With the expanded partnership between Microsoft and SAP, you can run SAP applications across development and test and production scenarios in Azure and be fully supported. From SAP NetWeaver to SAP S/4HANA, SAP BI on Linux to Windows, and SAP HANA to SQL Server, Oracle, Db2, etc, we've got you covered.
Besides hosting SAP NetWeaver and S/4HANA scenarios with the different DBMS on Azure, you can host other SAP workload scenarios, like SAP BI on Azure.
We just announced our new services of Azure Center for SAP solutions and Azure Monitor for SAP 2.0 entering the public previev stage. These services will give you the possibility to deploy SAP workload on Azure in a highly automated manner in an optimal architecture and configuration. And monitor your Azure infrastructure, OS, DBMS, and ABAP stack deployments on one single pane of glass.
For customers and partners who are focussed on deploying and operating their assets in public cloud through Terraform and Ansible, leverage our SAP Deployment Automation Framework (SDAF) to jump start your SAP deployments into Azure using our public Terraform and Ansible modules on github.
Hosting SAP workload scenarios in Azure also can create requirements of identity integration and single sign-on. This situation can occur when you use Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to connect different SAP components and SAP software-as-a-service (SaaS) or platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offers. A list of such integration and single sign-on scenarios with Azure AD and SAP entities is described and documented in the section "Azure AD SAP identity integration and single sign-on."

You want to know
If you have specific questions, we are going to point you to specific documents or flows in this section of the start page. You want to know:
- What Azure VMs and HANA Large Instance units are supported for which SAP software releases and which operating system versions. Read the document What SAP software is supported for Azure deployment for answers and the process to find the information
- What SAP deployment scenarios are supported with Azure VMs and HANA Large Instances. Information about the supported scenarios can be found in the documents:
- What Azure Services, Azure VM types and Azure storage services are available in the different Azure regions, check the site Products available by region
- Are third-party HA frameworks, besides Windows and Pacemaker supported? Check bottom part of SAP support note #1928533
- What Azure storage is best for my scenario? Read Azure Storage types for SAP workload
- Is the Red Hat kernel in Oracle Enterprise Linux supported by SAP? Read SAP SAP support note #1565179
- Why are the Azure Da(s)v4/Ea(s) VM families not certified for SAP HANA? The Azure Das/Eas VM families are based on AMD processor-driven hardware. SAP HANA does not support AMD processors, not even in virtualized scenarios
- Why am I still getting the message: 'The cpu flags for the RDTSCP instruction or the cpu flags for constant_tsc or nonstop_tsc are not set or current_clocksource and available_clocksource are not correctly configured' with SAP HANA, despite the fact that I am running the most recent Linux kernels. For the answer, check SAP support note #2791572
- Where can I find architectures for deploying SAP Fiori on Azure? Check out the blog SAP on Azure: Application Gateway Web Application Firewall (WAF) v2 Setup for Internet facing SAP Fiori Apps
