Read the full Juhayna
Industries, FORTE
CLOUD, and AWS story.
Juhayna Industries, the largest dairy manufacturer
in Egypt, needed to transform its IT infrastructure to
remain an industry leader, reduce costs, and adjust
to remote working. Moving the company's SAP HANA
environment to AWS, with its on-demand capacity and
consumption-based pricing, was an attractive option.
Working with FORTE CLOUD, an AWS SAP Competency
Partner, the total migration took just 3 months.
Because it was vital for Juhayna's database and
applications to always be available for its production
and sales systems, it had specific recovery-point and
recovery-time objectives. Identical databases and three
application servers were created using SAP HANA System
Replication, which makes copies of the data for both
database instances to ensure a quick failover from primary
to secondary in case of an outage.

IT Director, Juhayna Food Industries
Employees across the company saw the benefits of AWS
almost immediately. For example, during the COVID-19
pandemic, the company responded quickly to the business
request for remote working. The old gateways and
firewalls would never have handled 1,000-plus remote
connections, but with AWS, the set up for work-from-
home only took three days. Juhayna Industries has also
seen—and will continue to see—long-term benefits such
as cost savings and improved business continuity.
Juhayna Industries taps into increased resiliency with SAP on AWS
"Over a nine-year lifespan, the total cost
of ownership was more than $200,000
a year less than on premises—a savings
of around 40%. On top of this, we have
advantages over other options, like built-
in resiliency, limitless scalability, high
availability, and simpler manageability."
