As enterprises accelerate their digital transformation journeys, many are turning to SAP RISE with SAP S/4HANA to simplify their path to the cloud while preserving business continuity. SAP RISE is SAP’s strategic offering that bundles cloud infrastructure, managed services, and SAP S/4HANA into a single subscription model.
But as SAP landscapes grow more complex—with a mix of on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments—the need for seamless orchestration and intelligent automation has never been greater. Control-M is a proven, SAP-certified application and data workflow orchestration platform that is now fully compatible with SAP RISE and integration-ready with SAP S/4HANA.
Control-M: Purpose-Built for Modern SAP Workflows
Control-M empowers enterprises to orchestrate and monitor business-critical workflows across SAP and non-SAP systems with a single, unified platform. As organizations transition from SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA—either on-premises or through SAP RISE—Control-M ensures that scheduling, automation, and monitoring capabilities remain robust, flexible, and aligned with modern best practices.
Whether it’s traditional ABAP-based jobs, cloud-native extensions, or third-party integrations, Control-M manages them all—without relying on custom scripts or siloed tools.
SAP RISE Compatibility: Simplifying the Move to Cloud ERP
While SAP RISE streamlines procurement and lowers TCO, it also introduces a shared responsibility model, making automation and visibility into background jobs even more essential.
Control-M is designed to integrate directly with SAP S/4HANA under the SAP RISE model, ensuring that organizations retain full control over their scheduled jobs, dependencies, and business workflow, even as SAP infrastructure and services are managed by SAP or Hyperscalers.
Seamless Integration with SAP S/4HANA Features
Control-M supports the full range of SAP S/4HANA features and architecture elements, including:
- ABAP jobs
- SAP Business Warehouse (BW) processes
- Data archiving
- SAP HANA and Fiori-based applications
- SAP BTP extensions and API-based workflows
- Hybrid and multi-cloud environments (including OCI, AWS, Azure)
With Control-M, users can define and manage dependencies between SAP S/4HANA jobs and external workflows—whether they’re running in a data lake, cloud integration platform, or third-party ERP module.
Future-Ready: Clean Core and SAP BTP Integration
As enterprises adopt clean core strategies—keeping custom logic outside the core S/4HANA system, Control-M’s support for SAP BTP and API-based orchestration becomes critical. Businesses can now automate workflows across SAP BTP extensions and custom applications, maintain upgrade readiness, and drive agility across their IT operations.
This makes Control-M an ideal partner for organizations embracing side-by-side innovation with SAP BTP, as well as cloud-native integrations.
Key Benefits for SAP-Centric Enterprises

The move to SAP S/4HANA and SAP RISE is a strategic imperative for many organizations—but the transition requires careful orchestration, especially as business processes become more distributed and data-driven.
With Control-M, enterprises can confidently modernize their SAP environments, maintain full control over their critical workloads, and unlock the full value of SAP’s intelligent ERP—now and in the future.
