End-of-life for SAP Commerce On-Premise versions – It’s time to move to the cloud!
Deadline: July 31, 2026 – SAP has announced it will discontinue support and development for all SAP Commerce on-premise solutions as of this date. This means that a move to cloud is becoming virtually inevitable.
And that’s a good thing, because migration brings new opportunities and possibilities that can help keep your business competitive. Medienwerft not only supports your move to the cloud but also presents alternative solutions through a comprehensive end-of-life consultation.
Fast. Flexible. Agile.
What moving to the cloud can mean for your business.
Your business is always evolving. New products and services need to be available quickly in your online shop to retain existing customers and attract new ones. An on-premise solution often can’t keep up with the pace of your business. Changes take longer and therefore cost more.
Move to the cloud — it’s worth the switch. With a cloud solution, innovative features are automatically available, giving you greater flexibility and enabling you to adapt your application to your business in an agile way. With SAP Commerce Cloud, you can offer your e-commerce customers the unique shopping experience they are looking for. As an SAP Gold Partner with certified expertise, Medienwerft will support you every step of the way throughout the migration process.
Replatforming to a different e-commerce platform can also be a worthwhile alternative, as it allows you to ensure maximum flexibility and scalability while significantly reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO) in e-commerce, as demonstrated by the example of our customer HABA. We are also by your side as an implementation partner with extensive replatforming experience.

Change as an opportunity:
Your alternatives to moving to the cloud
The end of mainstream maintenance by SAP marks a clear turning point. Seize this opportunity for change! Good to know: Besides moving to SAP Commerce Cloud, there are other compelling alternatives available. Decoupled Storefronts — headless architectures that separate the front end and back end of an online store — offer companies greater flexibility and agility to create customized customer experiences. This is made possible by Composable Commerce, which enables the integration of best-of-breed software solutions from various providers, from search to PIM.

Reduce costs through replatforming — e.g., by switching to Emporix.
Another option is complete or partial replatforming, which involves switching from your existing SAP solution to a new e-commerce platform such as Emporix, commercetools, or FIS/eSales.
This approach unlocks numerous opportunities within the framework of composable commerce, making your online store future-ready. Combined with our lean commerce approach, replatforming can also help you achieve significant cost reductions in e-commerce.
