In the fast-evolving world of digital transformation, data has become the cornerstone of every successful enterprise. As organizations accelerate their journey toward the Cloud ERP landscape, one fundamental question remains—How do you build trust in your data before moving to the cloud?
At SAP TechEd 2025 in Sydney, powered by Mastering SAP, this question took center stage as industry leaders, data professionals, and technology visionaries gathered to share insights on driving reliable, secure, and intelligent data transformation. Among these thought leaders, McKinsol Consulting Inc. emerged as a key voice, presenting its expertise in data governance, SAP integration, and cloud transformation strategy.
The Need for Trusted Data Before Cloud ERP Migration
Migrating from legacy systems such as SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA Cloud—whether public, private, or on-premise—requires more than just a technical upgrade. It demands data confidence. Trusted data ensures smooth migration, reliable analytics, and effective decision-making across all enterprise operations.
At SAP TechEd 2025 Sydney, experts highlighted that data trust begins with data quality, transparency, and governance. Without these pillars, organizations risk carrying inconsistent, redundant, or inaccurate data into their new ERP environment.
McKinsol’s iDMX (Intelligent Data Management Xpress) solution was recognized as a transformative tool that simplifies data validation, cleansing, and enrichment to ensure that only reliable data enters the new cloud ecosystem.

How SAP Integration Suite (CPI) is Being Used – Learnings from SAP TechEd Sydney
A significant topic of discussion at SAP TechEd 2025 was the role of the SAP Integration Suite (CPI) in building data trust. As enterprises embrace hybrid landscapes, seamless integration between on-premise and cloud environments is essential.
McKinsol showcased its expertise in implementing CPI to unify data from multiple sources, enabling consistent and secure data flow between SAP S/4HANA, SAP BTP, and third-party applications. By ensuring real-time synchronization, businesses can make informed decisions and maintain data accuracy throughout the migration process.
Key Differences Between RISE, GROW, and On-Premise Strategies | SAP TechEd 2025
At SAP TechEd on Tour 2025, one of the most engaging sessions was the deep dive into RISE with SAP, GROW with SAP, and On-Premise strategies—each offering unique pathways to digital transformation.
- RISE with SAP empowers large enterprises to transition to S/4HANA Cloud with business process intelligence and managed services.
- GROW with SAP is designed for mid-market companies, offering agility and rapid deployment.
- On-Premise Strategy remains a preferred choice for organizations needing high customization and local data control.
McKinsol’s consultants emphasized that trusted data is the foundation across all three strategies. Whether migrating through RISE, GROW, or an on-premise model, a unified data governance and integration framework ensures long-term success.
