Migration to S/4HANA

The journey to SAP S/4HANA for those who already have SAP as ERP

We are rapidly approaching the point at which SAP is phasing out support for its older ERP versions. Many companies have not yet upgraded and are wondering how best to move from the current version, SAP ECC: Should they upgrade and stay in their own on-premise installation? Or could a good next step be to move SAP S/4HANA Cloud
