3M completes one of the world’s biggest SAP deployments with AppDynamics

Key benefits


Successfully migrated SAP production environments to the cloud


Improved the performance and stability of core business applications


Resolved issues faster with accelerated root cause identification



Deep into an enterprise-wide SAP deployment, 3M needed to ensure the stability of its new environment as it migrated to the cloud. Using AppDynamics, 3M develops and tests its SAP environment before going live, so users can perform critical business activities.

“We were able to deliver the performance and scalability we had promised. It was the outcome we had hoped to achieve with the cloud migration. And that was huge!"

Mary Lauber
Vice President of IT Quality and Release Management, 3M

Challenge

To pinpoint and address SAP performance issues more quickly and at the source, ensuring the successful deployment of core business applications across 3M and supporting its enterprise cloud migration.

Solution

With AppDynamics as its monitoring solution of choice, 3M can proactively identify and resolve SAP performance issues in a production environment both before and after going live with major deployments.

Results

SAP users across 3M now have the performance and stability to perform critical operations, while technical teams have the end-to-end visibility to successfully migrate core applications to the cloud.

"With the support of AppDynamics, we were able to monitor and compare the results of our migration both before and after. This gave us the ability to know, with certainty, when we were in a position to deploy without a hitch."

Vice President of IT Quality and Release Management, 3M
